+6.) How do I compile swftools on Mac OS X?
+
+    First, you need to install all the required libs (jpeg, t1lib, freetype, lame) via Fink.
+    Then, you have to inform configure of where they are:
+
+    ( setenv LDFLAGS "-L/sw/lib" ; setenv CPPFLAGS "-I/sw/include -I/sw/include/lame" ; ./configure )

+7.) Is there a pdf2swf/avi2swf for Windows?
 
     Windows versions of all SWF utilities are downloadable from
 	http://www.quiss.org/swftools/download.html
     .
+    (There's a self-extracting .exe version of all versions since 0.6.1, 
+     and a .zip or .rar archive of the newest development snapshot)
     Notice: For now, the utilities need to be installed to C:\SWFTOOLS to make pdf2swf work-
     otherwise it won't be able to find its fonts.

+8.) Where's the source code of the Windows version?
+
+    It's the same as the Unix source code. If you want to compile
+    under Windows, it's recommended that you get the CVS version
+    of the sources.
+    You need MingW (http://www.mingw.org) to compile it.
+    When cross-compiling under Linux, e.g. the following generates the Windows .exe files:

+    CXX=i386-mingw32msvc-g++ CPP=i386-mingw32msvc-cpp CC=i386-mingw32msvc-gcc \
