How did you get this error to go away? I'm dealing with it myself right now and can't find anything that seems to help.

Thanks

Correction, CFFFontManager would be required to create a SWF 10 DefineFont4 based embedded font _using Flex_. You may create such an embedded font using something like Flash Authoring CS4.<br /><br />Pete<br /><br />-----Original Message-----<br />From: Peter Farland [mailto:member@adobeforums.com] <br />Sent: Thursday, March 26, 2009 3:01 PM<br />To: flexsdk-dev@adobeforums.com<br />Subject: RE: transcoding parameter 'cff' is not supported by 'flex2.compiler.media.MovieTranscoder'<br /><br />A new message was posted by Peter Farland in<br /><br />Developers --<br /> transcoding parameter 'cff' is not supported by 'flex2.compiler.media.MovieTranscoder'<br /><br />Good catch Matt, that's right.<br /><br />CFFFontManager is only available in Gumbo right now and it would be required to create a SWF 10 DefineFont4 based embedded font for Flash Player FTE based text.<br /><br />If you do have a DefineFont4 based EmbeddedFont in a SWF, can you try removing cff:true and seeing if the compiler successfully still transfers over the font definition and confirm that FTE based text at runtime can still use it?

Good catch Matt, that's right.<br /><br />CFFFontManager is only available in Gumbo right now and it would be required to create a SWF 10 DefineFont4 based embedded font for Flash Player FTE based text.<br /><br />If you do have a DefineFont4 based EmbeddedFont in a SWF, can you try removing cff:true and seeing if the compiler successfully still transfers over the font definition and confirm that FTE based text at runtime can still use it?

I don’t think we can take a font already embedded in a SWF and re-apply the cff attribute to it.  We’d be counting on the font not being transcoded already.

  transcoding parameter 'cff' is not supported by 'flex2.compiler.media.MovieTranscoder'



Hello,



Eclipse 3.4.1 / Windows XP 64bits  



I installed the latest SDK and defined it as the default SDK.



Then I tried to make an AIR application :



<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<FxApplication xmlns=" http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009">



<layout>

<VerticalLayout/>

</layout>



 



@font-face

{

src: url("fonts.swf");

fontFamily: "Swansea";

font-weight:normal;

cff: true;

}

 



</FxApplication>



XML namespace is :

<application xmlns=" http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/1.5.1">



It cannot compile :

transcoding parameter 'cff' is not supported by 'flex2.compiler.media.MovieTranscoder'



What I am doing wrong please?



Thank you in advance !
