Oddity in Flash CFChart in PDF

I have a grpah (CFChart) that I display in a report as
TYPE=FLASH but when I try to open the same report as a PDF the
FLASH graph causes the page to hang. I can open the PDF with the
TYPE=JPG but graph doesn't display (just a icon showing that there
should be an image there -- but no image). I'm getting around this
by copying the code for the FLASH graph and making it a JPG then
using CFFILE to write out the graph to a JPG and displaying a
statement that the graph can be viewed online and showing the link.
But this seems wasteful and annoying to copy my code twice. I've
tried a bunch of imbedded <CFIF> statements within the
CFChart but that just messes the graph up and it won't display at
all. Addtionally, I want to have the graph saved as a JPG any time
the graph is viewed so it can be used as needed, so I do want to
keep the CFFILE piece but I don't want to have to write the CFChart
out twice on every report. Thanks in advance for your help.

Please help
What is a pdfpath? How can make it work?
navigateToURL(new URLRequest(file.pdf), "_blank"); does not
do anything

  • Embedding flash files in pdf

    Hello,
    as far as I know, it is now possible to include flash movies in pdf files that can then be viewed with Adobe Reader.
    I am more interested in controllable flash files with for instance, a slider that control a mathematical parameter of a curve for instance.
    Let's simply imagine the function f(x)=sin(ax) where parameter could be controlled by a slider to graphically see how f(x) depends on a.
    Is this possible with flash files? If yes, could then these files be embedded in pdf files?
    thank you

    You can embed any SWF file in a PDF using the tools in Acrobat Pro. There are security restrictions on local file access and shared storage of data, but in terms of graphical display and interaction with the user they can do whatever you want - it's a Flash programming question rather than a PDF question.

  • Flash content is making my Adobe Acrobat X to crash (how to disable flash in the PDF documents?)

    Hello
    I have Adobe Acrobat X, and I have a PDF document of around 700 pages. Inside, I have several pages I've downloaded from different websites, some of these pages have flash animations (I mean adverts with flash), when I click in a certain page of my PDF document that has a flash animation inside, booom it crash automatically.
    How may I disable flash in my PDF documents?
    Thanks

    Realistically you can't. Flash is enabled in the Acrobat X Family via embedded code, as it not only runs content within a PDF but also runs several elements of the user interface, such as the Share Pane.
    If you know of a particular PDF file that is causing crashes, please submit it via a bug report.

  • Can Flash CS5 Import PDFs?

    I have a contract where I'm having to bring a lot of PDF documents into Flash. These PDFs can't be imported into Flash directly so I'm opening them up in Illustrator CS4 and then copying and pasting it into Flash. This works fine. However, it would save me time to be able to just import a PDF directly into Flash.
    Does anyone know if this is in CS5?
    Thanks!

    Well I found one work around, if you set your Player to Flash Player 9 in the publish settings, when you import it will be Classic Text. Not ideal, but it works.

  • Flash eight viewer and flash content in PDF

    Has the issue been resolved with flash 8 viewer and flash content in acrobat. I have a document that is due on March 13 and I need to know that if I submit with flash content in pdf that if they have flash 8 viewer installed they will not get caught in buffering mode when they access the files?

    Jeff,
    This may be a better question for the Acrobat User-to-User forum. This is the Acrobat 3D User-to-User forum.

  • Error putting flash into a pdf

    Hello all,
    If I miss any information please let me know and I'll post back as soon as possible. I'll describe the problem in the best detail I can.
    So Adobe Acrobat Professional 8 running on XP. Working on a project that requires flash in a pdf. Do Movie tool > make the box > select what .swf I want in it > de-select snap to content proportions > Retrieve poster from movie > click OK. Now, it comes up as a white box. When I hand tool > click to play it flashes gray and goes back to white. Right clicking shows "Movie not Loaded". I tried this on my project and the adding flash to pdf tutorial on the adobe site, both with the same results.
    I can open the .swf in Firefox and it plays fine, so I'm hoping I'm just missing some step or some setting required to show the poster/movie. Thanks in advance for any help.

    Do you have QuickTIme installed, and if so, what version?

  • Flash integrated with PDF?

    Hello,
    A friend of mine forwarded me on a PDF he had received. The PDF file had built in flash components and sound. He said he had received one with video as well! The file was under 2mb in size! I was wondering whether or not there is any software which would allow you to do this? I have seen many applications converting flash to static PDF files or exe files but not fully interactive .PDF files...
    Thanks in advance!

    Acrobat Professional (since version 6) has allowed the embedding of Flash, as well as a variety of other formats. In addition, your multimedia content can communicate with the PDF via JavaScript/ActionScript.

  • Is it not possible to print Flash embedded in PDF as you see it on screen?

    Hi,
    I have this problem to which I cannot find a solution. I posted my question to another mailing list but I didn't get a reaction.
    It is about printing a PDF which contains Flash movies. Actually zooming is an issue too, but printing is more important.
    I have attached a sample file. When opened with Adobe Reader 9.1, the first page looks OK. The charts on the
    second page are wider than the page width, so that's OK too.
    Zoom in; you will observe that the Flash charts will not get resized right away. To
    see the effect of zooming, set the page display to "single page", page
    forward/backward.
    Print the file, the size of the printed Flash charts is much smaller than what is
    displayed.
    Am I missing something, or isn't printing PDF with embedded Flash movies 100% supported?
    Thanks

  • Flash Player in pdf file?

    I'm working on a eBook in pdf format with embedded video. If I insert video in shockwave or flv format it doesn't play. Flash Player 10 doesn't appear to open from video within a pdf file. (It IS installed! on the computer). I get video playback within the pdf doc with Quick Time or Windows Media Player or any other format but NOT Flash or Shockwave. I want to have a single dedicated player format so any computer will recognize and play the embedded video. Plus a single flv or shockwave video reduces the total file size to a managable download level beyond inserting every other video rendition known to man.Can Flash Player be embedded in the pdf file, be called upon FROM a pdf file or is it something that will only work on a website within an html presentation? ~SW

    Sorry, I don't know the answer.  If I had that problem, I would try to ask in the Acrobat forum.

  • Insert PDF with Flash into another PDF and it does not display.

    When attempting to insert an Adobe Acrobat file with flash elements into another Adobe Acrobat file, the latter will not display the file on screen. Instead it shows this message "For the best experience, open this PDF portfolio in Acrobat X or Adobe Reader X, or later." Please help.

    Yes I would have thought so. Adobe Acrobat and Reader have the ability to view flash content items however this is not the case. I will explain step by step what I am doing. I have done this for years before and I have recently formatted my computer and had to reinstall the software.
    Here is a little background information:
    System:
    Windows 7 Professional 64bit
    AMD-FX 4100 Quad Core CPU
    8GB RAM
    250GB free on HDD
    Software Installed:
    Adobe Acrobat X Pro
    Adobe Reader XI
    Adobe Flash 17.0.0.134
    Microsoft Office Home and Business 2010
    Steps taken:
    Open Outlook
    Select a few messages
    Click on Convert to Adobe PDF
    Save the new file "toInsert.pdf"
    Open "main.pdf" file
    Click and drag "toInsert.pdf" file from desktop into the thumbnail area of the "main.pdf" file to insert.
    Attached Error. Please advise. Thank you.

  • Enable flash content in pdf

    When exporting my indesign file to an interactive pdf i get the following problem:
    I open the pdf, when there is flash content , i can set the properties for it to be visible when the page is opened, that is what i want. When i then save the pdf other user do no longer have to 'enable' the flash content so that it looks embedded in the document (because people otherwise would just miss it ).
    Now I have a PDF with over 60 pages off flash content, so i have to enable page per page , and when the client asks for a little adjustment, be it 1 word, i re-save the pdf, it loses al those settings (the properties per flash in acrobat ) , so my questions is : how can i enable all this content 1 one time, in acrobat or indesign, because this is a terrible workaround.
    Thank you!

    Windows 7
    Indesign CC 2014 (latest)
    Adobe acrobat XI , version 11.0.0
    Flash is installed (otherwise i would not be able to activate the content i guess ? )
    Thank you

  • Printing a Flash File to PDF

    I am an Educator and I use Flash almost exclusively to create graphic organizers for my students. I have Flash CS3 on my macbook, and just upgraded to Flash Pro CC.
    I am able to print a document sized Flash file (No aminations, etc) to a PDF file with CS3, is this possible with CC?
    Thanks,
    Bob

    Printing (File->Print or programmatically) has been removed from Flash CC at this time.
    If you have Acrobat Pro you can import a SWF to create the PDF in that manner. InDesign should work also. 
    Typically if you subscribe to Flash CC you can download Flash CS6 because Flash CC entirely lacks ActionScript 2.0 support as well as TLFTextFields. CS6 supports those, is still 32bit and has a Print command. Check your Creative Cloud download panel to see if you can get Flash Pro CS6.

  • Link to Flash application from PDF not working on a Mac

    I'm creating a PDF using Acrobat.  I have 2 links that should open up a separate Flash application.  When I try clicking on them in Adobe Reader on a Mac, I get an error message saying "could not find an application to open the file 'xxxxx'.  I can navigate to the file directly in a finder window, and the Flash application opens up just fine.  I also created a PC version of this same PDF that points to Flash executables, and those links work fine as well.  Any ideas any one?  Thanks in advance!

    Under the "Library Log" where is says Flash Player Intall Manager: Unable to execute privilage task.
    What does that mean?

  • Flash Playing in PDF But Not in ADE

    Hi,
    I'm trying to add a flash animation to a PDF and then convert it to an ebook to be viewed in Adobe Digital Editions. I am using AcrobatX to create a PDF to test this out. The flash animation will work in a PDF viewer, but not in Adobe Digital Editions. What do I need to do to make this work?
