Alfresco Share 3.3g - Document Preview Issue

I just installed Alfresco Share 3.3g, and I'm working out all of the kinks.  I think this is the last thing I can see.  In Share, when I click on a document library, it shows up normally.  When I click on a document it comes up fine.  I can see the document preview.  However the zoom function just pixelates and becomes unreadable.

I'm assuming Alfresco is using ImageMagick to render the previews.  I'm using

[root@alfresco_prod ~]# rpm -qa ImageMagick
ImageMagick-6.2.8.0-4.el5_1.1

Are there additional libraries needed outside of ImageMagick's dependencies (or something entirely seperate?) needed for this to work properly?

Thanks for all the help.  So far we are pretty impressed with how Alfresco ogranizes and presents information.

IIRC, Alfresco uses ImageMagick to create the thumbnails, but it uses openoffice to create a PDF, and then PDF2SWF (part of SWFTools) to create the flash object/SWF for the document preview.

when I rolled the RPM for swftools I forgot the freetype-devel package, and it didn't make pdf2swf, but still built successfully. 

I updated to swftools .9.1 (with all of the tools installed) it works like a charm.
