NAME

       SWF::Font - SWF Font class

NOTES

       Ming 0.3's old getShape($font, $code) has been removed from interface.  For getting

       dumpOutline() method, just like

               $sh=new SWF::Shape();
               $sh->drawGlyph($font, $char_nr);
               print $sh->dumpOutline();
