This simple application illustrates, if you put the Flex 4.1a ontop of
the 4.9 and swap them backwards and forwards, it's obious that the small
embedded font comes out bolder, blacker and all round muddier in the
Apache SDK release.
At larger sizes both are the same.

I thought I had done so (using the AIR-based installer).
There are certainly 4 files called flex-fontkit.jar (etc) in
lib\external\optional - there isn't some extra compiler argument
required to turn these on is there ?
I'm trying to put together a simple test.

Font embed library is not and will not be donated. When using Apache
flex you have to install the adobe library otherwise the font won't
embed and I think it will appear thicker.

We have a style sheet that does, in part,
@font-face {
src: url("assets/trebuchet.ttf");
fontFamily: "Trebuchet";
embedAsCFF: true;
}
s|Label
{
fontFamily: Trebuchet;
fontLookup: embeddedCFF;
font-size: 12px;
color: #333333;
}
in order to get the look we wanted in in earlier Flex versions.
When compiling with the latest Apache release, all our fonts come our
bolder - see http://oi48.tinypic.com/t8an9c.jpg which has 4.9 on top,
4.1 on the bottom.
Is this to be expected ? I thought the font rendering was all donated
from Adobe now so should match up ?
