Flash Paper Problem

What is Adobe thinking -- have they lost all tract of
educational needs?????
I bought Macromedia Studio just for Flash Paper and now it
doesn't yet work with MS Vista. It HAS TO Work. I have no intention
of ever using the Contribute as I don't need it -- but I (I should
say all math/science online teachers using equations) need Flash
Paper.
Our online mathematics courses REQUIRE Flash Paper for
equation pages to open properly in Blackboard Vista!!!!!!!!!!
I am not downgrading a new computer to XP and not have the
right drivers because of such a anti-educational decision.
Can anyone help? Is the management listening?

hi mary,
i think the reason why its not supported in vista is that
when flash paper 2 was released vista is not yet in the market so
they had no way to check its compatibility with anyways maybe we
can suggest this as a feature request on their wishform.
I pasted the link below for flash paper feature request.

I have already written a request = ) lets just hope they do
upgrade flash paper so it will work on vista.

Flash Paper Appears Outside of Table

I am sure this has smething to do with object tags and the IE
upgrade, but I can't figure it out! I have a Flash Paper content
that is to appear in the center of the page. It does fine in
FireFox, but in IE it appears outside the table in the bottom left
corner. What do I need to change so IE will view it properly? The
other Flash Paper pages in the site appear fine in IE. What is
wrong with this page?

The pdf security is not working in Flash Paper

Is anyone facing a similar problem.
The pdf security if applied with a passsword to select the
text & graphics, printing, etc does not work. It selects any
and every text in flash paper and pdf. Does anyone know how can one
prevent to copy any text or graphics ...

I have the same issue. My phone says the files are corrupt and they stay corrupt if I forward then from my phone. It like the phone checks for something in the PDF, when it never did before.

Director and Flash Paper

Hi Adobe forums,
I've just about putting the finishing touches together for an
interactive CD at work using director 1.0.11. I've provided users
with a print button that then in theory should open the
corresponding flash paper file and then the user can just print out
what ever he or she wants.
Don't ask me why I used flash paper over pdf, it was
something new and I wanted to try it out. It works fine on my
machine but when I burn the projector and accompanying swf and xtra
folder to cd it won't work on other machines.
I'm guessing this is a Flash Xtra problem, but I've already
selected Flash Assest and Flash Asset Options X32 via modify >
movies > xtras but this doesn't seem to solve the problem. To
handle the opening of this file I've also downloaded and installed
BuddApi as well.
Here's the code I use to open the swf file:
property pFile
global gDelimiter
on getPropertyDescriptionList
description = [:]
addProp description,#pFile, \
[#default:"test.swf", \
#format:#string, \
#comment:"Type the full filename to open: Example: test.swf"]
return description
end
on mouseEnter me
-- sets the cursor to the hand
cursor 280
end
on mouseLeave me
-- sets the cursor to default
cursor -1
end
on mouseUp me
--- setting the file path to go to, you need to put your
folder name or file structure in.
--- the moviepath is the path to the actual .exe file. So you
just need to
--- add the structure from that point on. In the below case
there is a
---folder called "pdf_files" in the same directory as the
.exe
sPath = the moviePath & "swf_files" & gDelimiter
& pFile
--- & is simply appending each item, so it is appending
pdf_files to the
---existing path, and then appending
--- gDelimiter which is either a \ or : and then finally
appending the name of
---your file
baOpenFile(sPath, "Maximised")
--- buddyAPI command you will have to download and install
buddy API
---Xtra. It is free, do a google search for BuddyAPI and the
site will come
---up, simply download the appropriate version and place in
your Xtras
---folder.
cursor -1
end
If anybody could point me in the right direction I would be
very grateful.

Thats the strange thing, at work all machines are set up the
same way via an image ripped down to them when they are first
configured. Part of the standard desktop image is the Flash Plugin.
For some strange reason the .swf file isn't recognised on the
CD. Drag the associated file to the users computer and the file is
recognised.
I'll give the error reporting alert a try and feedback the
results. It might be that I just have to embed the Flash Paper
within the Director Projector.
If anybody else has any ideas I would be very grateful.

Adobe CS3 Pro & PDF files/Flash Paper

I created a website in Adobe Fash CS3 Pro and I was wondering if you can insert a PDF file into a flash website or MacroMedia Flash Paper which then would be an SWF file. If so, how can you do this. Thank you in advance.........

Severe issues when integrating flash paper in director

I'm trying to integrate flash paper documents into director
projector, but there are 2 severe problems about usability:
1. the mouse wheel doesn't work, so i can't scroll document
with mouse
2. i see two cursor on document, the standard arrow cursor
and the simulated flash paper hand cursor; it is possible to hide
the simulated hand cursor in flash paper?
I'm referencing to integration guidelines found at
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/director/articles/flashpaper_in_director.html
Please help, thanks

Thanks for the reply,
i've fixed the 2#, and i've come up searching at the
mousewheel xtra, and i've got your same idea: send to Flash Paper
some command to force the scrolling, but it seems that such command
doesn't exists... or maybe it is undocumented?
Someone have more informations?

Loading Landscape PDF in flash Paper

I am using Flash Paper to load different pdf's in flash but i
am facing one problem that once i convert any pdf that is on
landscape size it will rotate the pdf in swf and it looks like a4
size so any idea how to fix it

Bob,

otherwise),

It's not really a blind spot. Adobe obviously cares about
both
products, and in fact, both products can be intermixed in AIR
(Adobe
Integrated Runtime), a separate runtime available on the
Adobe.com site.
There are a number of technical reasons you can't embed a
PDF directly
into a Flash movie. For one, Flash Player only supports a
limited subset of
the HTML specification -- a subset that, for better or worse,
excludes table
cells, and (importantly) the <embed> tag. But even more
importantly, Flash
Player doesn't support the Acrobat plugin. Your browser does,
which is why
you're able to embed a PDF into an HTML document. The browser
can display
the PDF because you've installed the Acrobat browser plugin
(or ActiveX
control). Flash Player itself has no such plugin.
> I can achieve the same result by using Flash Paper from
> Studio 8, but this is not included in CS3.
If you still have Flash Paper installed, you can keep right
on using it!
Its output -- SWF files (that is, Flash movies) -- is 100%
compatible with
the tools in Creative Suite 3. Flash Paper creates SWFs that
emulate many
of the features of the PDF format ... but in the end, you're
simply
embedding another Flash movie.

Error Printing using flash paper

I have flashpaper 2.0 installed onto a windows XP Pro SP2, a
particular user is not able to use the flash paper printer. He just
gets Windows XP Printer Error box with 'Error printing - An unknown
error occured'.
There is an entry in the printer's queue, it too is marked
with 'Error - printing'.
When i log in (i'm an admin user) it works fine.
Any clues on where to look?

I have the same problem. Installed Studio 8 with Contribute 3
and FPV2 on WIN XP PRO SP2. I can't print to FlashPaper; I just get
the "Error-Printing" in the print queue. I have admin privledges
but still have the problem. I have uninstalled and reinstalled
Contribute twice. I have downloaded FPV2 drivers. I have tried
adding FPV2 drivers through WIN XP 'Add Printer" process and always
the same thing.

Flash Paper 2 & Document Map

I'm trying to find a solution which enables PDF files to be
converted to Flash Paper with some form of navigation (Same as or
similar to the Document Map function in Word). Unfortunately the
Document Map function doesn't work with PDF files. My current
method of converting PDF to Word using a converter programme is not
effective enough. Adobe are saying this isn't a priority for them
and no updates are scheduled in the near future. Has anyone found
solution for this?

Hi, I have the same problem... at the end have yoe got any
solution??
Thank you!

Flash paper -explorer 7

Has any one noticed that you can not load flash paper files
in internet Explorer 7. I loved converting word documents to load
directly and it worked fine until #7. The files load if you embed
them in an html file but not directly. Has anybody else noticed the
problem and figured out a solution? I have hundreds of files out
there that are going to no longer work when people load the new
explorer.
Thanks for your help

I have the same problem. Works perfect in other browsers. But
if you click the maximize button, it opens a new popup window as it
should, but it gets a javascript error and doesn't load. Example:
http://www.justiceforvictimsaz.com/sub/forms-brochures.html
(expand the forms section). ANy help would be GREAT! if not,
guess I'll have to do the PDF thing as well. Shame Adobe doesn't
want to support a wonderful product just because it use to compete
with PDFs.

Flash paper doesn't import bold fonts

I have some bold fonts in my word document. And when i export
them to
swf or
pdf, the bold fonts become regular. I used
Flash Paper last year once or twice and I didn't have such a
problem. The font I'm using is "Bookman Old Style". But I tried
other font types as well and they didn't work either... Anyone had
the same problem or know a fix for this issue ? cheers...
Flash Paper version = 2.02.2302

I had the same problem whenever I wanted to print on
FlashPaper. The following worked. Go to Control Panel > Printers
> Macromedia Flash Player. Right Click > Properties. Under
the tab
Ports select
FlashPaperPrinterPoint. I had LPT1 for FlashPaper selected
by default, so I guess it made my laptop "look" for the printer.
I hope it works for you too!

Flash Paper not working after IE7 Upgrade

Hey All,
I am running CFMX 7.02 that uses flash paper to print out
result pages. Everything has been workiing great until I just
upgraded to IE7. When I click on my print links the flash paper
pages open up blank. I can change the format to PDF and it works,
but I am concerned that many of my users may not have the PDF
softrware installed. Does anyone know what may be causing the
problem? I can open up these same pages on a machine that runs IE6
with no problems.
TIA
Tobin

Please ignore, I found the solution in a previous posting.
Thanks,
Tobin

Loading Flash Paper swf causes all other button events to fail

Hi Everyone,
I have created a project with Flash which I am using Zinc to publish as a projector for both Macs and Pcs. Now, in this app I am loading a pdf document converted to a Flash Paper swf. The moment I load this swf file into my project, it appears as though all other button events fail. If I remove the code which loads in the flash paper swf, all buttons function as expected.
Can anyone please help me with a reason / solution for this?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Cheers!

Did that and there were no errors shown at any point, such as when publishing the .apk file.
I found a solution. I was under the impression I needed to use touch events for it to work on a tablet, and changing those to normal mouse events solved the problem. Still not sure why it wouldn't work the other way, but for now it works as needed.
Thanks!

When Printing Flash Paper from Acrobat Professional, Flash paper is not able to search!

When I try to print a flash paper file from adobe acrobat professional, it prints, and it creates the flash paper file. The flash paper file is no longer search-able though, when I try searching, it just says "not found".
The original PDF is search-able, and I have created the flash paper files before and they were search-able, but now they are not. Is there something I'm missing? Please let me know!
contact me at [email protected]
Thanks!

I havent exported any videos in the past from Flash. The movie is around 45 seconds and the size is 470KB.
I tried both, the memory and the hard drive.
In the attached image you can see the settings and in the other image you can see the progress bar that remains without something to happen.
I dont mind what type of video to export it can be also .avi but again I have troubles there. It is very large and the animation is distorted.
The animation consist from two scenes. The first one can be exported without any problem but the second one cannot be exported. May be because it has some masks layers and guide layers?

I am having the same problem. When I start the install from
the install disk, installer starts but doesn't allow any right
clicking. It just starts the process. So how do you do this?
Is there another way to get to installer?
