Re: [Swftools-common] Conversion problem

Hi Matthias

Thanks a lot for answer.
But for the first problem( text with gradient) I did use poly2bitmap and still got black color in swf file.
Could you check it again please.
Thanks
Farhad

Yes, that's possible. Use
    pdf2swf -s poly2bitmap file.pdf -o file.swf
.

This is a flashplayer issue- it zooms thin lines differently
than Acrobat. (zoom into the SWF file and you'll see that
the lines actually look correct)
(I'm open to suggestions on how to improve that behaviour, however
during conversion pdf2swf has to choose one given line width, and
for that width there'll always be a zoom level where the line
looks different than in the PDF...)
