There are numerous flash decompilers for that evil and ubiquitous |
| 10 |
operating system named after a hole in a wall. :) Since I'm at work I |
| 11 |
used one of them. |

In gentoo, there is the swftools package which has some |
| 14 |
analysis/conversion tools. "swfdump -F file.swf" shows font |
| 15 |
information and confirms what I saw in the decompiler. For the music |
| 16 |
theory SWF file (which is actually called from another wrapper SWF), |
| 17 |
we see this among other data: |

Fonts can be embedded in Flash files, although in this case they are |
| 30 |
not doing that, and instead using the font "_sans", which is a special |
| 31 |
generic font family that's supposed to exist and work on all |
| 32 |
devices... although that's apparently not the case. :) |
