[Swftools-common] pdf3swf conversion fails due to a font error?

[Tom Wilde]

hello,

I'm testing pdf2swf to see what it will, or will not, successfully convert.
I have a test MS Word document with three lines in it testing the fonts:
    times new roman,
    winddings
    arial

I think I have all the fonts correctly copoed over from mny windows box and converted to pfb's but it seems to bail out on a dynamic font conversion..

anyhow.. thanks for the help, here's the command line dump:
