SWF not working properly when sent to acrobat

I am trying to place a simple swf file in a layout but Acrobat refuses to display it at the correct size. It shows me the correct dimensions in the import dialog, but then seems to ignore them. The final placed object comes in at 320x240 no matter what.
As for where the SWF is coming from, how it was made etc, I have tried multiple methods for making this work. Here's the list:
1. Created an MSO in Indesign, exported the mso element as a SWF and replaced the swf in the document. FAIL - Transparency breaks and the size is wrong
2. Retried about 5 versions of the about with opaque background and various sizes. FAIL - same problems
3. Built the SWF in Flash Catalyst, placed in InDesign FAIL - same problems
4. Used Catalyst swf, place directly in Acrobat 10. Import works, transparency works...FAIL - always resized to 320x240
I am using Indesign CS5 and Acrobat 10 on Mac OS X 10.6.6
I could really use some help here. I placed this same note in the acrobat forums, because I am getting pretty desperate here. I am supposed to deliver the final client file for this project today and this represents one of the key showcase elements!
Thanks.

Ok. So after reading through a pile of forum posts and blogs I believe I may have my answer. Though I can't say I like it much.
It seems that Acrobat does not render video/swf pixels at 1:1 (See This Forum Comment) and the disparity causes the image to appear distorted. The only fix I have really seen so far is to play with the zoom level in acrobat until the image comes into focus. A point that is different on every screen.
Here are some of the posts I found most helpful:

I still want to think that there has to be a way to force a 1:1 pixel ratio, but I have not seen any solutions for doing so. There was a suggestion regarding setting the flash stage to NO_SCALE, but I am not entirely sure what the suggested implementation involves.
I would still love to hear ideas on how to create a better solution to this, but for now I suppose I will have to live with it as is.

  • Why are videos taken with a 4S suddenly not working properly when sent to non iphone users since the update?

    Suddenly non I-Phone users cannot view videos anymore, they can hear the sound, but no audio.  Iphone users are having issues viewing the videos too.  This all started with the 6.0 update.  Please fix it or tell me how to restore my phone back to the previous update, it is quite annoying.

    Hello VintageShaay,
    It sounds like you are getting some audio issues with the included Ear Buds when they are plugged in. I wanted to recommend these troublehsooting steps from the article named:
    Troubleshooting iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch accessories
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2634
    3. Disconnect and Restart
    Disconnect the accessory and turn it off, if possible. Restart iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad by turning it off and then back on. When the Home screen reappears, reconnect the accessory.
    4. Isolate
    Isolate the issue to the accessory, if possible. Or, if available, try to reproduce the issue with another identical or similar accessory.
    Examples:
    If there is static coming from the left audio channel when using headphones, try connecting the headphones to a stereo, or try connecting a different set of headphones to the device.
    If the device is not syncing when connected to the dock, try connecting it directly to the computer using the Dock Connector to USB Cable, or try another USB port.
    6. Restore iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    Restore iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to its factory default state. You should rarely need to use this step with an accessory issue. If the issue only affects a third-party accessory, contact the manufacturer before restoring the device.
    Also if that does not resolve the issue, try the steps from the following article:
    Apple EarPods: Low or muffled sound

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

    why is that we insist on seeing the source file ?
    There is no one way of doing things in flash and no one can
    help
    you based on "does not work description".
    This is way to broad of a subject to even try to guess.
    Same as asking "my car does not work, what's up with
    that"....
    Please upload the problematic file and provide url for us to
    check.
    Otherwise you need to try to troubleshoot it yourself as we
    can't
    guess from here what possibly is wrong with that file.

    If after you charge it for about three hours and it only last about five minutes the battery is probably dead or there could be another hardware problem.  I would go back to the Apple store and ask them specifically how can it be OK if the fully charged battery only lasts five minutes.

    Thanks for that information!
    I'm sure I will be calling AppleCare, but the problem is, they charge for the phone calls don't they? Because I don't have money to be spending to be on the phone with a support service.
    In other things, it seemed like the only time my MacBook was working was when I had Snow Leopard without the 10.6.8 update download that was supposed to be done to prepare for OS X Lion.
    When I look at the information of my HD it says that I have 10.6.8 but that was the install that it claimed to have failed and caused me to restart resulting in all of the repeated problems.
    Also, because my computer is currently down, and I've lost all files how would that effect the use of my iPhone? Because if it doesn't get fixed by the time OS 5 is released, how would I be able to upgrade?!

    Hi all, I am having a problem with weblogic 10.3.5.
    It turns out that an application built with JDeveloper 11.1.5, I test it, and everything goes well in the JDeveloper integrated Weblogic.
    But when deploy in a standalone weblogic 10.3.5 server, the application does not work properly when I press a CommanButton to go to another page search (the property "action" is set correctly) , but nothing happens, stays in the same home page. Similarly when a commanButton link to run a task-flow, It do not work , however in the JDeveloper integrated Weblogic it runs correctly.
    How I can solve these problems?
    Thanks.

    Thanks Frank for help us, but when I writing this comment we are doing at home. So, we going to test the page in a stand alone weblogic server 10.3.5. We wrote the URL as :
    " http://<our ip>:7001/myApp/faces/index.jspx "
    this application contains a report desing and compiled with iReport 4.5.1 ( last version in the moment ), we can see the report when I press a commanButton without any problem.

    Actually i simply want flip card animation which is not working here in my code. When i tapped button to invoke animation its behavior not exactly flipping.  Its one side work properly but other collapsed suddenly not rotate if i keep mouse right at
    the button, but if i change mouse pointer at that very time after tapping it works properly. Mouse Pointer Over mean screen points where i tapped.
    Triggered Function is here:
      private void btnChangCase_Tapped(object sender, TappedRoutedEventArgs e)
                if(isCaseChanged==false)
                    isCaseChanged = true;
                    FlipOpen.Begin();
                else if(isCaseChanged==true)
                    isCaseChanged = false;
                    FlipClose.Begin();

  • Image display control scrolling does not work properly when zoomed in

    I am using a ROI on an image in the image display control. When zooming into the image to fine-adjust the positioning of the ROI, the image scrolling does not work properly. As far as I understand, the image should scroll automatically when the ROI is leaving the visible area. However, the scrolling behaviour seems to depend on the origin of the Labview panel, not the origin of the image display control, which might require to move the ROI way out of the visible area before the scrolling takes place. In other words: the coordinate system of the image display control is shifted with respect to the true visible image area, depending on where you place it on the front panel. As a consequence, when clicking on a ROI which is in the visible area, but is outside of what Labview thinks is the visible area, it might immediately jump to the left border of the image, making the positioning of the ROI really difficult.
    Has anyone noticed this behaviour, and what would be a reliable solution to avoid this? 
    Dirk

    Hello,
    no, I am not talking about the tools palette. Just place an image control with some image in it on a new VI front panel. Then, use the rectangle from the tools and select a ROI in the image. If you zoom in (using the magnification glass), and then grab the ROI and move it around, the image scroll with the ROI. So far, so good. If you now place the image control elsewhere on the panel, or add new control above it, resize the panel, etc. , this scrolling when moving the ROI will not work correctly if the origin (0,0) of the panel is far away from the image control.
    I have attached a VI for simplicity (although there is hardly any code in it).
    If you make a ROI and try to move it down, you will notice that scrolling starts if you move the mouse out to about 10cms below the image (depens on your screen, of course). After that, if you click on the ROI, the scroll bars and ROI might jump up to the upper end of the image. Imagine how annoying this is if you try to finely adjust the ROI position. 
    I think it is a bug in the implementation of the image display control.
    Thanks,
    Dirk

  • Subvi does not work properly when called inside a vi

    Hello Every body
    thanks for your help. i am using a sub vi for sine signal generation. as a vi it works fine. but when i called this subvi inside another VI it gives some problems. for example timer indicator works properly.it reinitializes as well in the sub vi, but in the main VI it does not work properly. means does not count the time.in the sub vi on the fly i can change the values of frequency and amplitude in real time, but when i use as sub vi, it does not reponse as i change the values in the control arrays.similarly pause and continue works properly in the sub vi, but once again in the main VI, it does not work properly.graph indicator also work properly in the sub vi. but here once again it does not work properly in the main VI.the pause resume indicator also does not blink, when it is continue. in the subvi it blinks very well.generally why the sub vi does not work properly inside the VI?i am sending my VI and sub vis.
    any tips would be highly appreciated.
    thanks

    I just want to add some more details to Dan's answer. The subVI is acting exactly like you've coded it. The mistake is in understanding how subVIs work. When you call a subVI (or a function in any other language), you pass some parameters to it, the subVI does it's thing and returns values. the subVI does not accept new parameters from the calling VI until it returns to the caller and the caller runs the subVI again. In your case, you have a subVI with a while loop. You have some front panel control wired to the subVI's stop terminal. When first called, the value is false. So the subVI will keep running until the subVI's stop button becomes true but you cannot change it from main until the subVI finishes and returns so the subVI will never stop. As Dan says, the solution is pass references of front panel controls to the subVI and have the subVI monitor those references for changes and to update references to indicators on Main. You subVI does not need any front panel controls or indicators of it's own.

  • Satellite Pro U200: VGA output not working properly when AC adapter was connected

    Hi,
    I have a problem with vga output. When I'm working on battery and connect my notebook to external monitor it's ok, but when I connect AC adaptor then start waving also bluetooth and wlan does not work properly. In other case when I remove battery from notebook and connect AC adaptor it works properly.
    thanks in advance

    As long as you use a CRT you should set the refresh rate new, at least 85Hz. Standard is 60Hz as far as I know, and that hurts in your eyes.
    The wireless lan behaviour is quite normal as long as your not right next to the access point. On battery power the wireless lan card reduces its energy consumption thus the connection will be poor if you dont have a perfect signal. You can turn this off in the iNTEL Pro/SET wireless software, where you can configure the adaptor. Try to change the powersafe mode to manual and full power, this should solve your problem.
