Ugh, I was afraid of that. So, it matters? Do outsides have to be cw and insides ccw? Or do they just have to be opposite one another?

Is the best way to determine Clockwise-ness by comparing...

Hello,
Since no one has responded to my question, I thought maybe further detail of my problem would help. Here is a .swf file with a background rectangle, then two font characters, a 'g' from a...
