Export flash in swf format?

In order to get .swf I'm having to use sorenson squeeze and it's a pain. Is there a way to export directly to swf instead of flv?
Thanks

Encore, I believe.

Exporting graphics in SWF format

Dear all,
I have a question regarding Illustrator. I have recently produced a graphic containing a lot of gradient shading using the MESH TOOL.
Ideally I would like to export this into Flash in SWF format but everytime I do this the outines and solid areas of colour are exported as vectorised graphics but the areas containing the gradient shading produced using the MESH TOOL are all rasterized as solid pixelated graphics. Is there anyway around this? Do I have to do something to the graphic in illustrator before exporting. Any suggestions would be really appreciated. My email is [email protected] I could send you the original graphic to see where I am possibly going wrong.
Thanks and regards
Keith

If I recall correctly gradient mesh objects are just not supported in the swf export process.

Export Book as SWF - formatting (single page on screen at start)

Was this book created in InDesign? http://www.qub.ac.uk/edu/Summer%2010%20Newsletter/
I am currently working on an annual report and when finished want to save it in various formats, one being export to SWF with page turns. I successfully tested this earlier. The cover and subsequent pages of the report are all A4 size, however when exported as SWF it shows on the screen in my browser as landscape with a white A4 page next to the cover (to the left) and at the end next to the back cover (to the right). Why is this?
Is there any way of exporting it so that as per the link above it starts of as a single page of just the cover and then goes into side by side pages when you turn the cover over and start reading?
Also, different to saving an INDD as a print quality pdf, when I export to SWF the quality seems reduced, especially with the images (I used original tiff images as it will also be printed and saved as press quality pdf). Is there any way of keeping it as sharp as if it were being saved as press quality pdf?
Finally, like the link above, can we add sound in InDesign to the swf page turns?

That example you linked has most certainly been done from PDF file by using some commercial service which converts PDF file to digital magazine. You can do similar publications from InDesign CS4 or CS5 too. Check out http://www.prepress.fi/eDocker_eng ....
If you want to get rid of that white area next to cover/backcover, simply draw a rectangle that overlaps a little with cover/backcover page, and color it gray. Just make sure it´s little bit bigger than your page size. InDesign exports it along SWF and if you use exactly same grey that has been used in background of html, nobody can see that empty area any more... here´s a sample: http://www.prepress.fi/e_newsS10
Color values for that grey box are (in CS5) R153 G153 B153 (see images)
If you have InDesign CS5 in use, you can add sound files to you indd. I have never used a page turn sound, but in theory it should work if you put a sound effect to every page and make it play automatically when page is opened... is it fast enough or is there some lag caused by loading..? I don´t know but if you have a sound file in right format, it´s easy to test.... and remember to test it also from server, not just locally...

Does Adobe Media Encoder save/export in swf format?

Does Adobe Media Encoder save/export in swf format?
If yes how?
Thanks

SWF is not a video format. That is why the Flash Video (FLV and F4V) formats exist.
The are very inefficient ways of making SWF behave in some ways like a video format, such as creating a SWF file that uses a sequence of JPEG or PNG image frames, but such files are enormous and have other problems. After Effects has this option, which was created before Flash Video (F4V and FLV) formats were invented, but that does not mean that a modern video encoder like AME should add this very obsolete feature.
The way that people create video for Flash Player is to create F4V or FLV files. You can embed or link those in a SWF file using Flash Professional.

How can I save a Flash or .swf file in AVI format without losing quality?

How can I save a Flash or .swf file in AVI (or another video) format without losing quality?

As long as you don't have code in your animation then just hit File->Export->Export Movie, then configure the options.
Here's an article on exporting sound, images and video. Just skip on down to exporting AVI and it explains the process. The codec is in the Video Compression section. When you click Settings for Video Compression, the codec is in the drop-down at the top. There's various kinds but to get lossless quality AVI you'll have to choose Uncompressed / None for full quality. Again, the file will be huge and you'll need to use another program (like Adobe Media Encoder) or Microsoft Windows Media Encoder, etc, depending on what format you intend to compress it ultimately.

Need Help To Extract Logo from Flash File .swf

I have an attached Flash file that is in
.swf format. There is a N64 logo within this file that I'm
trying to extract as a
.png with a transparent background. I've been able to open
it in a program called
Flash Decompiler Trillix and in the sub-menus it has the
logo listed as a frame.
This is about as far as I have gotten and I'm stuck. Perhaps
someone else knows how to do this a little easier. I just need to
find a way to extra the logo that already has a transparent
background and save it in
.png format.
Any help here would be hot." ;)
Logo Flash
File .swf

Hello,
I ran into a similar problem a few months ago. I have the
Sothink Flash Decompiler and what I did was turn the SWF back into
a FLA. I then opened it in Flash and then exported what I wanted as
a PNG image.
Decompilers can extract the actual image whether it be jpeg,
gif, png, etc. But when it's listed as a frame(as you mentioned
above) then the method above is probably the best way to get it.
Good luck

Scheduling Xcelsius report in Infoview for SWF format

Experts,
Can I know how do I schedule Xcelsius report in Infoview for SWF format.
My report is ready and user wanted this report everyday morning.
I am refreshing it manually and sending him.
I want to write flash file in a share location.
Please help me.
Thanks

Hi,
Unfortunately, scheduling of the swf files are not possible at the moment.
You can manually export the swf to a network location.
Thanks,

Creating a "tabbed" image in an exported PDF or SWF

I posted about this last year, well in advance of actually doing it, and thought I had the correct answer (see http://forums.adobe.com/message/3759403#3759403). However, now that I've had a detailed look at CS6 and tried to create a "tabbed" PDF (my original term, but more correctly called a multi-state object with interactive buttons), I find that it can't be done. Although maybe it can, hence this post.
I'm trying to make a file (PDF, SWF, whatever) exported from CS6 that can be opened by virtually any novice computer user without hassle. i.e something like a PDF; something my grandmother could open and marvel at the cleverness of her grandson. Here are some options I've tried.
Method 1
Export a "tabbed" image from CS6 to Interactive PDF format. Unfortunately, "tabbed" images don't tab. Or have I not ticked the right options when exporting?
Method 2
Export to SWF format, with the HTML option ticked. But that seems to generate two separate files: an swf file and a .html file. Clicking on the latter opens the file in a web browser – so far so good, and it works like a charm – but I don't like the idea of two files when I send them to my grandmother. I suppose I could encapsulate both of them in a zip file, tell her to open that, and then open the one with the suffix .html… but you can see the process is getting complicated, probably beyond my poor old Nanna.
Method 3
Export to PDF (Print). To get this to work for "tabbed" images, this is what I envisage (not yet tried).
Say I have three images that I want to overlay and tab between, like you can do in Photoshop. I set up multiple interactive buttons (Next, Back, Skip…), appropriate text anchors, and whatever else is needed, on three separate pages, with the three images in identical locations on those pages.
The user comes to the first image, checks out the image, then hits Next. The page seems to instantly change to the next image (on the next page).
The user then hits Next or Back or Skip.
In the above thought experiment, I think I have simulated "tabbed" images at the cost of additional pages. Any novice user could easily open the document, though I'd have to make sure the navigation is very clear and simple to use.
I welcome any comments on obtaining "tabbed" images from a document exported from CS6.

Thanks Bob. I posted a short while ago, but have edited that post.
With further playing around I was able to get your suggestion working (exporting to SWF, then placing, then exporting as Interactive PDF). Why would I be disappointed if I tried that method with an entire document? My document will probably contain about 200 pages, and maybe 20 of them would have "tabbed" images. What problems would I come across, other than the extra time involved in separately generating 20 pages of "tabbed" images.
[Added after some testing]:
One problem I have found is that text is rasterised.
When I export a page from InDesign to SWF, and then open the SWF file in Flash Player (Projector), text is a vector.
When the SWF file is imported back into InDesign, and exported as a Interactive PDF, the text ends up rasterised…
But if I export as SWF, the text is not rasterised.
CS6 is rasterising the text within a SWF file when it exports to PDF. Is there a way of exporting an SWF file to Interactive PDF so that text is not rasterised?

Query regarding conversion of Quick Time movie files to .swf format

Hello Everyone,
Is it possible to convert QT movie files to .swf format using
any tool ?
Will it significantly reduce the file size ?
Suppose we have a QT movie file of size 3MB , when it is
converted to .swf
format what will be its size ?
Then can we play this .swf file using QT player or we require
flash player
to do so .
Kindly answer these queries.
Thanking you,
With Best regards,
Anil.

Hi Anil.
Yes, you can. You can import QT movies into Flash and embed
the movie and then
export an swf version of it. You can also convert teh video
to a FLV (Flash
video) and have a swf that provides the controls and player
for it.
> Will it significantly reduce the file size ?
File size probably will go down but that depnds on what
compression the orginal
QT has and what compression you use when importing to Flash.
I'd say start with
a high quality QT, then try various compression levels when
importing to get
the best size to quality balance.
> Suppose we have a QT movie file of size 3MB , when it is

Is hard to say - as mentione dabove, depends on what the QT's
compression is.
> Then can we play this .swf file using QT player or we

> to do so .
You'll have to play the swf through Flash. Why would you wnat
to play it
through QT?
What's the output for - CD/web? I'd suggest FLVs ratehr than
an embedded vidoe
into a swf as you can get better quality control and
playback.

How to save a flash with .SWF

Hi, I have the 'Adobe Flash CS3 Professional', and I want to
know if you could tell me how to save a flash with .SWF.
When I want to create a new project, I can chose between nine
types of documents, and I want to make a flash for a website. What
type of document would you chose if you were me ?
I can't write the name of the diferent types of documents,
because I have this programme in Spanish.
Can you help me ?
Thank you

FLA is the native source format - make your movie and then
publish to SWF -
you can not create an SWF initially - SWF is the
exported/published format
of your FLA>

I need help to convert photos in the .swf format to a format that will open on iOS

I need help converting photos in the .swf format to a format that will work on my Mac. Thanks

SWF is a Flash file that should be able to be opened with your web browser on your Mac. Probably not on iOS though.
You will likely need to find the source file for the application that created the SWF and the image will be in that. You could then export/extract the image and have it as a stand alone file.
It does look like there are applications that can do what you are looking for though: https://www.google.com/search?q=SWF+to+JPG

Report rendering in Flash and SVG format

Hi everybody,
two questions: it's possible report rendering
1) in Adobe Flash (SWF) format?
2) and in SVG format?
Thank you.

The only viewer available is an html viewer. Your other options are to export it to one of the available formats (word, excel, pdf, etc)

Using Flash 8 swfs in Captivate

Does anyone know of a backdoor method of making flash 8 swfs
work when imported into Captivate? We are then publishing the
Captivate movies and integrating them in a Flash 8 interface.
Your feedback is greatly appreciated.
Best Regards,
J

Hi J and welcome to our community
There is no way (back door or otherwise) that I'm aware of to
do this. Unless, of course, you mean to use Flash 8 and export the
Flash in a version 6 format.
Hopefully we will see Flash 8 files working just dandy in
Captivate version 2.
Cheers... Rick

Could not generate the flash file(SWF)

Hi all,
I am working with a Dashboard having a GMap plugin and it was working fine on BO server.
But now the plugin has been changed from GMap to CMaps plugin. I am able to download the same dashboard from BO Server to my desktop.
The snapshot of the warning I get while downloading the dashboard has been attached.
When downloaded from server, in place of displaying map on GMap plugin I get a warning "Invalid request this request is invalid" but when i open its properties the warning goes and the map appears back.
Then I tried to upload the same dashboard on BO Server and I get an error "Could not generate the flash file(SWF)...". The snapshot of the same has been attached.
I am unable to do any modification on this Dashboard.
Regards

Hi,
In your discussion,you have downloaded the dashboard file from the BO server to your desktop.
You can export the dashboard to BO Server in SWF format.But how can you download the physical dashboard file from BO server.Is it possible?
Do the changes in .xlf physical file and export the .xlf file to BO server as File-->Save to platform.
Regards,
Venkat P
