Marketing Manager, Jennifer Toton, taught a class at Autodesk University 2006 entitled "More Dazzle in Less Time: Create and Share Presentations with Autodesk Impression and DWF." Along with Technical Marketing Manger, Todd Hunter, they demonstrated the power of combining DWF and Autodesk Impression to win more contracts.
You can load a DWF file into Impression and dazzle it by applying styles:
You can include the resulting Impression rendering as an image in the DWF and provide that to a customer for review:
You can check out Autodesk Impression for free from Autodesk Labs. Autodesk Labs is our home for new prototypes, experiments, applications, and technologies. Autodesk Labs analyzes and develops new and viable market driven business ideas. Created by the development teams at Autodesk, these technologies include everything from web services to plug-ins to new applications. Thanks for the info Jennifer and Todd.
Hi, Scott:
We are evaluating DWF Toolkit 7.3 for rendering DWF files on Linux. Since the Autodesk DWF Viewer depends on T2EMBED.DLL to rendering embedded True Type fonts on Windows, we'd like to know if embedded True Type fonts can be rendered on Linux with DWF Tookit 7.3.
Sincerely,
Sean

The DWF Toolkit is a parser of DWF files. It is not a renderer. You are correct in that you would need your own rendering solution for DWF files on Linux. You may wish to talk to TailorMade Software who have a solution.
