Question

Fonts aren't shown correct in Flashpaper

My company provides a macromedia coldfusion mx7 applicationserver based on linux (Debian Sarge, 3.1). Our application uses the Adobe Flashpaper for printpreviews. My problem is, that only one fonttype is generated correctly in this flashpaper - that's arial - and all the other fonts like Courier New, Comic Sans, Times new roman, tahoma, Verdana etc. are shown with the same unidentifyable font (shown font looks similar to times new roman fonttype).

*)I've tried the technical documentation of coldfusion for font-configuration at a linux box - configuration was successful - but fonts didn't work after that procedure. (documentation of coldfusion provide following link for that: http://corefonts.sourceforge.net/)

*)i've added these fonts to the font-management of coldfusion - but no change
*)i've installed coldfusion mx7 on a windows xp installation, without a modification of the existing fonttypes - and there all the fonttypes are printed correctly.

See following link for some screenshots of my problem:
Fonttypes

so my question - how can i check, which fonttypes are provided for flashpaper?
What have i done wrong - where can i configure these fonttypes?
Does an other thread exist for this problem?

i would be very happy, when someone could help me with this problem.
Nice regards, Andreas

    This is not an issue that I have seen come up before for Flashpaper. Debian is not a supported or tested platform for ColdFusion. Perhaps it is just an incompatibility with the OS or version. Your company should consider working on a supported platform - http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/productinfo/systemreqs/

    I've tried with SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 8 too, because this os is supported (i haven't written this into my text). But with this os i have totally same effect.
