I just filed stumbled on this :

Seems like TLF only manages OT and TTF fonts. What about older postscript font librairies ???

If i make a classic text field, choose any postscript font. Looks nice.
Change it to a TLF text field : postscript font has disappeared.

That's correct, sorry. The older fonts don't have the advanced metric information required for text layout in FTE. But you can use them with TextField.

Then, we need to advertise on the subject a little more... Especially since we can design a xfl file from indesign cs4, with postscript fonts and open it in flash with everything broken...
