Flash paper, .swf  & loadMovie...

This may look like a riddle, but I can assure you I'm not
being clever. here is my problem.
this.createEmptyMovieClip("test",1);
test.loadMovie("
http://somelocalwebpath/folder/flashpaper.swf");
1) It works when "flashpaper.swf" is non_flashpaper.swf (both
are relevent paths)
2) It doesn't work when "flashpaper.swf" is
another_flashpaper_doc.swf (another flashpaper doc)
3) It works when "flashpaper.swf" is "image.jpg"
4) It works when the I use a UNC path instead of a URL, but
not on anybody elses machine. (because it can't access the file w/o
http or access permissions)
5) I checked for size, filetype, corruption, yadayadayada.
What happens:
When it works, it loads the .swf like usual.
When it fails, it loads the initial flashpaper loading
screen, crashes flash player, and flash.exe.
I think the flashpaper .swf does some sort of work that
requires pathing around, which fails cross-server using "
http://..." but works using the direct server
link (if user permissions allow, of course).
I can force this to work using user permissions and direct
paths, but what I'd like most is for someone to shed some light on
what flashpaper does, and how I can work with it.
HELP!!!

Hi folks,
Further to my last post, here is a workaround that prevents
the FP document from being resized.
1. Create a Captivate project with a single slide and insert
the FP document as an animation so that it covers the entire slide
2. Make sure that both in the animation dialog and also the
Project Preferences all transitions are switched off and that the
loading screen option (Project preferences) is also disabled.
3. Publish the FP document as a SWF
4. Open the project file you want to add the FP document to
5. Insert the publshed Captivate project containing the FP
doc as an animation
6. Again make sure that the transitions menu is set to No
transition.
7. Publish your new Captivate project.
Again I have provided a working copy which you can see by
clicking on this

here
Just one other point, the Print button still does not work in
this example. I will post again if I manage to get this working.
Regards,
Mark

  • 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!

  • Flash paper swf

    I have used Adobe Fash Paper to convert Word and Excel files
    to sfw files. Next I insert these swf files as animation into
    Captivate (both versions). Sometimes this works fine and other
    times i get three or four rapidly flashing green boxes at the top
    of the inserted animation and I cannot access the document. Other
    times it works just fine. When all is working it is quite a nice
    way to attach Word or Excel documents to a Captivate file without
    linking.
    Does anyone know how I can make this work all the time?
    Many thanks

  • Can't See Flash Paper Document

    First, my appologies if this has been mentioned before. I couldn't find it so I posting it.
    I just installed Flash Paper2. Converted a Word document to PDF and draged it to Flash Paper2's window. It loaded fine. I then saved it as a SWF.
    It looks great. The load it into a page via Dreamweaver. The preview test looks winderful.
    I Upload all the required files online for the public to view it. But nothing comes up. Instead it says I need a new version of Flash Player (which I already have. That was Friday. Today, I have a white box in FireFox. And in IE, it's the same white box, but now the original (non-Flash Paper) Flash at the top is missing as well.
    To make matters use, a very simple Flash SWF I've made dozens of times is now not loading. It also says I need to update. But I Already Did! This simple flash is just three flyers that swap places every 100 frames. No reason for it to need updateing. The Flash I created (in the exact same program) still works on the page, but not the new one.
    What's going on?! I can see Flash Paper SWFs and normal SWFs just fine on other sites. Just not the one I'm working on.
    Here the link to the Flash Paper page:
    http://www.dlhenry.com/MediaKit.html
    Please help.

    Windows has a few graphics formats not supported by Mac OSX, such as .emf, probably the graphs are in an unsupported format.
    OpenOffice is very compatible with MsOffice, if it opens the files correctly you might be able to copy and paste the graphs over. They will probably turn into .pdf graphics in the process.
    Failing that make a screen snap of them using +command shift 4+ drag around the image and look for the subsequent file on your desktop.

  • Dimensiones de SWF usando Flash Paper

    Hola amigos, soy nuevo en este foro y quisiera que me
    ayudaran a resolver un problemita que tengo. Estoy implementando
    una aplicación flash para un cd card el cual contendrá la
    memoria anual de una institución. He usado el Flash Paper 2
    para convertir mi archivo PDF a SWF. Dentro de mi aplicación
    flash cargo el archivo SWF externamente, pero al momento de
    ejecutar la pelicula me muestra el archivo SWF en dimensiones
    pequeñas, el cual no es muy claro para poder leer. ¿
    Cómo podria hacer para asiganarle las dimensiones de este
    archivo SWF que cargo externamente?
    Espero que me puedan ayudar, ps lo necesito con suma
    urgencia.

    Cuando hago CDs con muuuucha documentación, lo cual es
    bastante a menudo
    para la web de e-learning que llevamos, o para los balances
    de gestión
    anuales de algunos ayuntamientos, personalmente utilizo mucho
    Flash Paper 2.
    Tengo algunas funciones ya preparadas en AS que cargan los
    documentos swf de
    Flash paper en un mc contenedor de mi película flash
    principal, adaptándolos a un tamaño
    específico. Después o bien utilizar
    botones o componentes combo que carguen los diferentes swf
    externos.
    Se puede cargar un swf generado de Flash Paper en el
    tamaño que quieras,
    siempre que le des al movieclip de destino el tamaño que
    necesites. Como
    adelanto, mediante esta función, se carga el swf ya
    convertido de flash
    paper y se adapta al tamaño del contenedor (estoooo, con
    flamx2004, que
    conste que no lo he programado yo...) :
    function loadFlashPaper (
    path_s, // path of SWF to load
    dest_mc, // MC which we should replace with the SWF
    width_i, // new size of the dest MC
    height_i ) // new size of the dest MC
    var intervalID = 0;
    var loadFunc = function()
    dest_mc._visible = false;
    var fp = dest_mc.getIFlashPaper();
    if (!fp)
    return;
    if (fp.setSize(width_i, height_i) == false)
    return;
    dest_mc._visible = true;
    clearInterval(intervalID);
    loaded_o.onLoaded(fp);
    intervalID = setInterval(loadFunc, 100);
    dest_mc.loadMovie(path_s);
    Y la orden de carga:
    on (press) {
    _root.recomienda.gotoAndStop(1);
    unloadMovie(contenedor2);
    loadFlashPaper("swfs/tu_documento.swf", contenedor, 719,

  • SEGURIDAD EN SWF GENERADO CON FLASH PAPER

    Hola foro, he generado un swf de un documento de word con
    Flash Paper. Hasta aquí todo va bien, cuando lo llamo desde
    Flash me funciona sin problema, sin embargo las opciones de
    seguridad como no permitir impresión, no permitir copiado y

    I think the commands "getURL" are fine, as I tried to send myself the SWF file by mail and from my home computer could browse the web perfectly. So, if from my work computer and from my house file works perfectly the problem must be on the other computers in the office.
    I used the flasdrive to check with other projects I had at home if those office computers could reproduce well other projects made with "getURL" and through that I found not.
    These computers have the latest flash player version.

  • Flash Paper as individual page swfs

    I'm trying to turn a large pdf (~400 pages) into individual
    Flashpaper pages. Is it possible to have Flashpaper spit them out
    as individual pages or alternatively use Flash to pull each page
    out of the FlashPaper interface. I want to be able to manipulate
    each page individually and build my own user interface so the
    standard FP controls are in the way.
    Any thoughts?

  • Flash Paper dans un document flash

    Allo tout le monde,
    J'ai converti mes fichiers pdf en flash paper 2 format swf :
    ça au moins c'est très facile !
    Méthode: - Ouvrir un fichier pdf
    - Aller à la fonction imprimer
    - Choisir l'imprimante qui est Flash Paper 2 et pouf !, tout
    ce fait automatiquement.
    - On choisit le format de fichier, .swf ou pdf. que l'on
    désire.
    Bon tout est beau jusqu'à ce point mais là...
    J'ai un document flash déjà créer avec un
    menu déroulant et des clips divers associés aux
    différents boutons du menu déroulant. J'ai besoin
    d'importer un de ces fichiers converti en flash paper dans mon
    application flash et je n'y arrive pas.
    Dans aide Flash paper 2, il y a une page de code à ce
    qu'il faut faire pour arriver à importer un fichier flash
    paper dans flash. J'avoue que je n'y comprend pas grand chose. Je
    ne suis pas vraiment une programmeuse. Voici le code, si quelqu'un
    pourrait m'expliquer ce que ça veut dire et à quel
    endroit l'appliquer. Je marque des notes à ce que je ne
    comprend pas. Alors voici:
    Texte intégrale du flash paper 2 dans aide
    Utilisation de FlashPaper avec Macromedia Flash
    Vous pouvez insérer un fichier SWF FlashPaper dans un
    fichier FLA Flash. Lorsque vous exportez le fichier FLA dans SWF,
    le fichier SWF FlashPaper est incorporé comme partie du
    fichier SWF Flash exporté.
    Le code suivant indique comment charger un fichier SWF
    FlashPaper dans un fichier FLA normal à l'aide de la fonction
    loadFlashPaper() : ( à quel endroit inscrit-on ce code? au
    frame 1 du document flash ou au frame 1 d'un clip vide ou ???)
    function loadFlashPaper(
    path_s, // path of SWF to load
    dest_mc, // MC which we should replace with the SWF (est-ce
    que je dois créer un clip ? )
    width_i, // new size of the dest MC
    height_i, // new size of the dest MC
    loaded_o) // optional: object to be notified that loading is
    complete
    var intervalID = 0;
    var loadFunc = function()
    dest_mc._visible = false; ( est-ce que dest_mc est le nom
    que je dois donner à un clip?)
    var fp = dest_mc.getIFlashPaper(); ( fp ( est-ce le nom de
    mon document flash paper ?)
    if (!fp) (getFlashPaper ( est-ce le nom de mon document
    flash paper? )
    return;
    if (fp.setSize(width_i, height_i) == false) ( est-ce que je
    dois donner une grandeur, largeur ?)
    return;
    dest_mc._visible = true;
    clearInterval(intervalID);
    loaded_o.onLoaded(fp);
    intervalID = setInterval(loadFunc, 100);
    dest_mc.loadMovie(path_s);
    Le code suivant indique comment vous pouvez utiliser la
    fonction loadFlashPaper() après avoir incorporé un
    fichier SWF FlashPaper : ( à quel endroit on indique ce code?
    Dans le clip lui-même sur une frame 1 ou sur le frame 1 du
    document flash? )
    function onLoaded(fp)
    // loading is complete, so we can now adjust the current
    page, zoom, etc.
    // go to page 50.
    fp.setCurrentPage(50);
    // change magnification to 33%
    fp.setCurrentZoom(33);
    loadFlashPaper("FlashPaper.swf", theDocMC, theDocMC._width,
    theDocMC._height, this);
    La valeur fp.setCurrentPage a été définie sur
    50 et la valeur fp.setCurrentZoom sur 33. Lorsque vous exportez le
    fichier FLA, la page 50 du fichier SWF FlashPaper incorporé
    apparaît à l'intérieur du fichier SWF exporté
    avec un agrandissement de 33 %.
    Donc à l'aide de ces codes, il serait bon de faire un
    exemple pas à pas concret comment on intégre cela dans un
    document flash.
    Alors j'attendrai la réponse de celui ou celle qui veut
    bien relever le défi que de répondre à cette
    question un peu compliquée.
    Un Gros Merci d'avance !
    Nurse 1

    J'ai trouvé la solution dans la documentation en
    englais. Après l'avoir essayer, ça fonctionne.
    Alors voici je joins le code: attach code à ce document.
    C'est un pas à pas. En espérant que cela peut
    aider d'autres personnes.
    À une prochaine !

  • Major Questions about Flash Paper 2.0

    Ok, I've been fiddling around with flash paper 2 over the
    last few days. Like it a lot for my non-technical users..however, I
    have a few questions. Hopefully someone can answer soon. Ok, I have
    a main swf and in there I'm using a script I found (person who
    wrote it, last name: Whitehouse) on the Net which allows me to load
    a flash paper file from within that main swf along with some
    control on some interface features. Here it is:
    onClipEvent (load) {
    // function: loadFlashPaper
    // Parameters:
    // path_s: path of SWF to load
    // dest_mc: Movie clip to hold the imported SWF
    // width_i: New size of the dest movie clip
    // height_i: New size of the dest movie clip
    // loaded_o: (optional) Object to be notified that loading is
    complete
    function loadFlashPaper(path_s, dest_mc, width_i, height_i,
    loaded_o) {
    var intervalID = 0;
    var loadFunc = function(){
    dest_mc._visible = false;
    var fp = dest_mc.getIFlashPaper();
    if (!fp) {
    return;
    } else if (fp.setSize(width_i, height_i) == false) {
    return;
    } else {
    clearInterval(intervalID);
    dest_mc._visible = true; // Now show the document
    loaded_o.onLoaded(fp);
    intervalID = setInterval(loadFunc, 100);
    dest_mc.loadMovie(path_s);
    // Function called once the FlashPaper SWF is embedded:
    function onLoaded(fp) {
    // We can now call the FlashPaper API functions.
    // Remove the standard user interface features:
    fp.showUIElement("PrevNext", false);
    fp.showUIElement("Print", false);
    fp.showUIElement("Find", false);
    fp.showUIElement("Tool", false);
    fp.showUIElement("Pop", false);
    fp.showUIElement("Zoom", false);
    fp.showUIElement("Page", false);
    fp.showUIElement("Overflow", false);
    fp.showUIElement("useHandCursor", false);
    fp.enableScrolling(true);
    // Some additional API features (here commented out):
    // Go to page:
    // fp.setCurrentPage(3);
    // Change the magnification to 50%:
    // fp.setCurrentZoom(50);
    // Now we're ready to start
    // Create the destination movie clip to hold the SWF:
    var theDocMC_mc = _root.labserviceworkclip;
    // Position it on the stage:
    theDocMC_mc._x = 15.4;
    theDocMC_mc._y = 211.8;
    //theDocMC_mc.useHandCursor = false;
    // Load the FlashPaper SWF into the clip,
    // size it, and trigger the onLoaded() function:
    loadFlashPaper("labservicework.swf", theDocMC_mc, 730, 510,
    this);
    //_root.miningprojectspopup.hidecontainer.loadMovie("19a.swf");
    Now, is it possible to:
    1.) Remove the hand curser?
    2.) Remove the Flash Paper splash that appears before the swf
    is loaded? Maybe replace it with loader bar?
    3.) Control color of scrollbar (like you can on flash
    components)
    4.) The main swf is set to transparency, but if make
    background color in Word doc a color, that color does not show up.
    Why?
    4.) In Word, I want to create multiple pages that appear
    seamless when scrolling down in the swf file. however, can't to get
    that to work. Has anyone tried this? I'm open to any option such as
    using tables inside my Word docs (am trying that now but still not
    working).
    5.) I created an 8 page document in Word 2003 and saved it as
    swf BUT am getting this "Printer Failed.." response. If I do pages
    smaller in number, works fine. What's going on with that. I also
    have installed CutePDF installed..could that be screwing it up?
    6.) I want to include anchors inside the swf file so that at
    the click of a button, I can automatically move the scroll up or
    down. Any idea how to do that?
    7.) I want to inlude links inside the swf file to navigate to
    different frames inside main swf. Is that possible?
    8.) When creating hyperlinks in Word to swf file, (yes, I
    chose correct target frame), the page doesn't appear to open into a
    new window. What's up with that?

    First off I would recommend buying the non academic full version for $20 more because its worth it. So when Aperture 2.5 or 3 comes out, you do not have to pay the full price for it.
    As for your library, make a backup if you want, but all you need to do after installing a licensed version of Aperture 2 is go to your previous library and then select "open with..." then chose Aperture 2 (default)
    Once you do that you will receive a message stating that "once your library has been updated, it will not open in previous versions of Aperture, do you wish to continue?"
    After you do that your library will be fully imported into Aperture 2 exactly as it was in the previous versions of the program.
    Hope that helps.

  • 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.

  • Flash Paper

    Hello - can anyone tell me how you set the dimensions of a
    flash paper file (.swf) when loading it into a movie? It seems to
    default at 550x400. Thanks

    You can set the dimensions of an loaded SWF easily using the
    MovieClipLoader
    class:

  • Flash paper not resizing in IE

    I am loading my flashpaper in a movie clip using the standard
    code (
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashpaper/articles/import_flpaper2_03.html).
    The flashpaper is located on a different subdomain than the
    swf doing the loading, so I added
    "System.security.allowDomain([flashpaper.domain.com]);"
    The flashpaper loads, but will not resize.
    I added some debugging and it looks like the
    "getIFlashPaper()" is not able to detect the flash paper.
    Works in Firefox, but not in IE.
    I wonder is this related to the 9.0.115 relase?
    Can anyone provide any info here?
    Thanks
