Re: [Swftools-common] Patch for pdf2swf (CID codemap file options)

[zou lunkai]

This was an old thread. I find I still have similar problems.  The
command line options patched by Moriyoshi Koizumi is exactly what I
need.

I got a pdf2swf 0.8.1,  Win32 version. But those command line options
are not supported by this version.  How do I specify the related
language files?  Seems there are no related command line options.

Thanks if any help.
