I have a similar issue. I need to create a framework in flash that will allow converting vector graphics and diagrams from a flash application into a PDF Stream. So far everything has been working good but I had problems creating text. The default font for our diagrams is verdana. When creating my PDF Verdana font I got a message saying that the /widths are incorrect. I don't know how to get the right widths array. I went to Illustrator and created a file with a text box displaying all the verdana characters and exported it as a pdf. I found the description of the font by opening the file in word pad but it has as base font something like /sdafsdf+Verdana. Everytime I export the file the part before the "+Verdana" is different. It also seems that Illustrator is embeding the font font. The array with the widhts, however, is always the same. I tried to use the array in my stream and I keep getting the error related to the /widths. The text displays but is all cramed. Eduardo
