"Major changes from v4.03 to v4.04 are listed below:
ASV can extract font symbols as TTF (True Type Font) files now. Also batch extraction option is added to the File Menu. "
from http://www.quasimondo.com/ :
"Create True Type fonts out of the embedded outlines contained in swf files? It's strange that until today nobody has written a tool to accomplish that, because technically it's pretty easy and it is possible since Flash 2.0. The only hurdle is the True Type format itself because its structure is pretty complicated. Well, finally Burak Kalayci has done it: with the latest update of Actionscript Viewer 4.04 you are able to suck the fonts out of any swf file. My congratulations for being the first. I hope that this development will not turn out to be Pandora's Box.
Theoretically with ASV you are able to harvest all the swfs that are out there and grab all those fonts you want. As a starter for those who are daring I recommend the various websites of online font shops - some of them use flash to demonstrate their fonts, so you can grab the whole package. Of course that's illegal. So don't do this at home..."
