Jan F. Weber commented on FLEX-33184:
-------------------------------------

I downloaded the latest SDKs vie the latest SDK Installer but the problem remains. The files mentioned above are only 2KB of size. I would also assume that this is no firewall issue on my side since the files would then probably be completely blocked.

> fontswf won't run
> Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: flash/swf/tags/DefineTag
> 	at com.adobe.fonts.transcoder.Font2SWF.main(Unknown Source)
> The fontswf script uses Adobe's flex-fontkit.jar which was moved to the lib/external/optional dir per Apache's guidelines.  The manifest for this jar expects these jars in the same directory as flex-fontkit.jar.
> Class-Path: afe.jar aglj40.jar rideau.jar swfutils.jar
> but swfutils.jar is in lib.
> workaround: copy or link lib/swfutils.jar to lib/external/optional
