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.

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.

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.........

How to load a pdf inside flash
I need open a pdf inside flash how I do this?

> I need open a pdf inside flash how I do this?
You can't, really. Flash Player doesn't support Acrobat.
Specifically,
you can't open a PDF in Flash and have it act like a PDF
(scrollable,
searchable, etc.). But you can certainly convert your PDF (or
a page from
your PDF) to an image format and import that.

Sharing PDFs, and Flash Paper
We'd like to use be able to Share PDFs in our Adobe Connect
sessions, just as one might do with PowerPoints files. However, we
can't seem to get it to work for us. Is there a way to share PDFs
with meeting participants?
Secondly, if we *can't* share PDFs, is there a way to turn
them into .swf files so they *can* be shared?PDF's cannot be share in the share pod with this version of
Connect.
Use FlashPaper (3rd item down on the Getting Started page) to
install a Print to SWF driver on your computer. It works the same
as a Print to PDF driver.
However, if you are on a Vista or Mac box, then you will
probably need to reach out to something like www.print2flash.com
that allows you to use a free web app to convert the files to SWF.

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 1J'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 !

Missing Apostrophes in Flash Paper
When I convert a word document into a pdf using flash paper
all the apostrophes and quotation marks are missing. Is this a
common problem? I'm hoping someone can sure any pearls of
wisdom.......
Flash Paper 2 version 2.02.2302.0
OS: Windows XP homeStop reinstalling your fonts. Check what fonts are in Snow Leopard sys folder and library folder. There's a conflict somewhere. What type of font management do you use?
I strip out all fonts from all folders except system folder and Adobe Required folder. I replace the fonts in the system folder with the OT or PS versions of Helvetica and Times. I use Font Agent Pro to manage my fonts.
I do recall having font conflict issues when I first upgraded to Leopard. Can't remember how I resolved it. I would have to examine all my font folders again.
Peter, I only export to PDF as a rule. I've been following the Snow Leopard stuff but I don't take notes. ;-)
Edit:
Okay, so if I export a postscript file and drop it in distiller that solves the problem.
HA! My suggestion worked. It's a workaround but not a solution. -
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! -
If so, we need to bring it back, I used it as part of my
workflow for clients. Some clients give me articles they've
appeared in in the newspaper. Flashpaper was a great way to post
the article in a printable format that wasn't pdf which I feel is a
lot better/faster loading.
Also, taking a .doc file into flash paper was awesome as
well! please help me! somebody help me! I'll even pay for
flashpaper functionality/exportability!
-LineAlthough I don't think there was anything
“official” it seems clear to most that Adobe no longer
has any plans for Flash Paper.
I believe you can still buy Flash Paper 2 as a standalone app
however.
I went with Print2Flash which has a tad more flexibility than
Flash Paper 2 for about the same price.
It is a great tool and maybe Adobe will release something
better but if that's the plan they are keeping it very close to the
vest. -
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.

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.

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 helpI 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. -
Here's the project.
560 Page PDF document with images (not sure the filesize yet,
but will likely be 100MB+). Looking to be able to incorporate it on
a CD without needing to rip it apart into chunks. I will if I need
to, but just don't want to.
I will be using Director but am curious which would perform
better? FlashPaper or INM's Impressario? Flash Paper is cheap.
Impressario is $500 (and an additional $440 or so for an outdated
logo waiver!!!) From what I understand Impressario is very good at
handling large PDF documents by loading only the pages it needs...
How does Flashpaper compare?
Any comments?I've never used Flash Paper, but have used Impressario for a
few projects.
It's a nice Xtra, but IMO it's not very well optimized. It
chugs on PDF's
with large background images - huge difference between
viewing in
Impressario and Reader. I've actually had to abandon it on
one project
because my client didn't like how slow it was.

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.
Gracias de antemano
Atte
JonhwwwCuando 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,
701);

A working method to load local PDF and HTML files on iOS
I had a lot of trouble getting this to work, and I'm hoping this post saves someone time. Some of the information that's been posted in other locations is either wrong, incomplete, or might only work on Android. By the time you read this message the information here may no longer be accurate, so here's the testing environment:
Window 7
Flash CS 5.5.0
AIR 2.7.0.19530, which was compiled on June 28, 2011
iPad 1, version 4.3.5 of iOS
Let's get started.
On iOS, you load external PDF and HTML files using the StageWebView class.
On Windows, StageWebView works but the HTMLLoader class is a better choice if you're creating a desktop app.
You can also load HTML files by reading in the file's text. The information in this post is only for loading external HTML files.
StageWebView will not load a file that's in File.applicationDirectory. All files bundled in your app are placed in File.applicationDirectory, which means you'll have to copy any external file you wish to load with StageWebView to another directory.
So where can you copy your file? File.applicationStorageDirectory won't work. File.documentsDirectory does work.
Several people have recommended copying to a temporary file using File.createTempFile(). This works, but there's a catch: it seems that, like Windows, StageWebView relies on a file's extension when determining how to load it. When you create a temporary file on iOS using File.createTempFile(), the file will have no extension (and on Windows, File.createTempFile() creates a file with the extension .tmp, which is equally problematic).
The solution to the file extension problem is to rename the temporary file by appending the original file's extension. AIR currently does not have a <file>.rename() function, so you'll have to do it using <tempFile>.moveTo().
Here's some code I've successfully tested several times on both iOS and Windows. The file is copied to the temp directory. The file's extension is restored by just slapping the original file name to the end of the temp file.
private function loadExternalFile():void
var webView = new StageWebView();
webView.stage = this.stage;
webView.viewPort = new Rectangle( 0, 0, 1024, 555 );
// Works with either html or pdf files.
// These are stored in the root of the application directory.
var fileName:String = "euei.pdf";
//var fileName:String = "euei.htm";
var sourceFile = File.applicationDirectory.resolvePath( fileName );
var workingFile = File.createTempFile();
try
sourceFile.copyTo( workingFile, true );
// You have to rename the temp file
var renamedTempFile:File = workingFile.resolvePath(workingFile.nativePath + fileName);
workingFile.moveTo(renamedTempFile, true);
webView.loadURL( renamedTempFile.url );
catch (err:Error) { }I tried this with Flash CS5.5 and AIR 4.0 SDK. Any pdf loaded simply fills the viewPort with black. Also tested with a png version of the pdf and that displayed just fine.
What's the purpose of copying to a temp work file? I found that webView.loadURL( sourceFile.url ); gave me the exact same results.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
