Page flip?

I am trying to find an inexpensive way to make my pdf files look good...
I wanted the documents to have the "page flip" capabilities.
someone suggested:
You could place PDF files in InDesign and export to a page-turnable SWF file. If you don't have InDesign, grab the fully functional 30-day trial to do the conversion from PDF to SWF
I am using InDesign CS2, and when I export, I do not see a SWF file option? -- the closest I see is SVG?
is there something that is not activated in my version?
any suggestions?
Thanks, Katah

You mean like this:

Resolution of wire is a bit lousy, but I couldn´t find better for this demo.
That is made from InDesign CS4 (CS5 will do as well). The trick is to use single pages, not facing pages... and place the wire at the middle of the page. If SWF is exported as single pages, page transition will fold the page at horizontal half point... and it looks like page is folding by using same line where the wire is....

How do I change the theme in Presenter to publish a page flip .swf & .pdf effect?
Thank you for reply with help!

You can increase the font size and automatically page view changes. Go to menubar; Reading -> PDF View or Epub Text Size (depending upon the ebook) and increase the size.

Direct link to specific page in page flip swf?

This may have an easy answer, but is there a way to link directly to a specific page in a page-flip swf via direct link from another site/web page/etc.?
If my page flip swf is on myzines.com/2010-08-01.html ...
Is there a way to link from any other web page to the page noted above and directly to page 12 of the swf?
Something like myzines.com/2010-08-01.html#page12 or myzines.com/2010-08-01.html?page=12 perhaps?
Seems like it should be possible, but I'm not seeing it and haven't seen anything in the forums. Any leads would be appreciated.

Hi
I am trying to implement the page flip effect through prospective transition, but i am facing difficulty in implementing.

You can try converting done related JavaFX 1.x scripts to JavaFX 2.x code:

Page flipping with Volatile Image. Need help :)

Hello all,
Could someone point me to a nice tutorial which specifically addresses setting up page flipping with Volatile Images as the buffer? I haven't had any trouble with the generic BufferStrategy way of doing things, but it looks like the absolute fastest way to go is page flipping. Any info on this subject would be appreciated. I am a student who is making his first attempt at setting up a fullscreen video game...well if you want to call it that! :) I am shooting for Pong as a first project!
Please feel free to send me the info at [email protected], and thanks much.

If you're using Windows, then your picture is already most likely
being stored as volatile. You should look for an article on the
web discussing Java rendering internals as of 1.4 do a search for
"java automatic images" you'll probably find some useful info.
But if you insist you can just fire up a debugger and
play with it until you finally figure out what it's doing..
You just need to do a createVolatileImage as opposed to createImage
when creating your buffers.. make sure to use
createBufferStrategy(2) (or if you want to be totally sure print out
the capabilities of the buffers available and select one that you
know for sure supports back and front buffers that are "truly"
volatile..
it turns out in my experience on win2k that using normal "automatic"
images via Component.createImage() are faster than volatiles perhaps
because I tend to do alot of scaling ops which are not as of yet
accelerated..
here's some stuff that might help you:
good luck!
static public void printBufferCapabilities(BufferCapabilities bc) {
System.out.println("Printing Buffer Capabilities: ");
if (bc.isFullScreenRequired())
System.out.println("Full screen is required");
else
System.out.println("Full screen is required");
if (bc.isMultiBufferAvailable())
System.out.println("MultiBuffering is available");
else
System.out.println("MultiBuffering is not available");
if (bc.isPageFlipping())
System.out.println("PageFlipping is available");
else
System.out.println("PageFlipping is not available");
ImageCapabilities ic = bc.getBackBufferCapabilities();
if (ic.isAccelerated())
System.out.println("BackBuffer is accelerated");
else
System.out.println("BackBuffer is not accelerated");
if (ic.isTrueVolatile())
System.out.println("BackBuffer is truly volatile");
else
System.out.println("BackBuffer is not truly volatile");
ic = bc.getFrontBufferCapabilities();
if (ic.isAccelerated())
System.out.println("FrontBuffer is accelerated");
else
System.out.println("FrontBuffer is not accelerated");
if (ic.isTrueVolatile())
System.out.println("FrontBuffer is truly volatile");
else
System.out.println("FrontBuffer is not truly volatile");

System.out.println("Image is accelerated");

if (flip == null) { System.out.println("Dude your flip is flipping NULL!"); return; }
if (flip.equals(BufferCapabilities.FlipContents.BACKGROUND))
System.out.println("Flip Contents are BACKGROUND");
else if (flip.equals(BufferCapabilities.FlipContents.COPIED))
System.out.println("Flip Contents are COPIED");
else if (flip.equals(BufferCapabilities.FlipContents.PRIOR))
System.out.println("Flip Contents are PRIOR");
else if (flip.equals(BufferCapabilities.FlipContents.UNDEFINED))
System.out.println("Flip Contents are UNDEFINED");
else System.out.println("Where the hell did you find this flipping Flip Contents, now flip off!");
static public void printElapsedTime(String desc, long start, long stop ) {
long s = stop - start;

Using animation in a page flip

Here is the pageflip animation using AS3 http://www.megazine3.de/?c=home&l=en

Embedded .swf (page flip) Very Slow

Hello,
Within my flash file, I embedded a .swf (page flip) that is taking too long to load. When flipping through, it lags. Is there anything that could be done?
Reference:
http://www.lucysonlinestore.co.cc/home.html
The .swf (page flip) is under "Clothes".
Any advice appreciated.

kglad,
I apologize for the misunderstanding. I don't wish for anyone to go through my files. My intention of posting on here is for anyone with the past experience of slow performing page flips to share their solutions. Since page flip is so popular in flash sites, I thought people would have encoutered such problems. I included my site to show as an example. I do appreciate you taking the time and effort to go through the files and test run them.
The error you're referring to is caused by declaring and using the loader in frame 3. In frame 1, I'm unloading the loader. If I declare the loader in frame 1, then the unloading won't work properly.
I did search online for past posts, while many people encountered page flip performance issues, there is not much solutions out there. I thought better solutions are out now. It's at times like this that I wish I knew more about flash and AS3. Started to learn about a week ago doesn't help solving the errors.
Thank you for looking into this.

Page-Flip component: Varying page sizes?

Hi all, I have a question for you about the page-flip
component. Is it possible to make the pages within a single book
different sizes? In other words, could I have a cover page that's
500 x 500, and behind it a page that's 550 x 500, and behind that
one a 600 x 500 page, and so on? The idea would be that you could
see a bit of some of the pages before actually reaching them.
According to the manual, there seems to be some kind of page
height and page width functions, but I'm not sure how to use them.
Any advice?
Thanks!

Not quite sure about Page Flip component,
See example05, is that something you need?

Can I print calendar pages "flipped"?

I print my calendars on 3-hole punch paper. iCal pages come out with the 3 holes on the bottom of the page. Because of how my book is arranged, I'd like to print them so that the holes are on the top of the page. I know I can simply flip the unprinted paper in the printer's paper feeder, but then I have to remember to put them back after I'm done, which I often forget to.
Is there some way I can force iCal or the printer to print these calendar pages "flipped" so I don't have to physically do it in the paper feeder?

I finally figured out how: select "Reverse Page Orientation" when printing.

When I publish from ibooks author will the pages flip like my other books

When I publish from ibooks author will the pages flip like my other books the preview only slides side to side

Pages continue to slide rather than flip for the horizontal orientation. In the vertical orientation, the text scrolls up-and-down like a web page (again as shown in iBooks Author if you change the previewed orientation). I'm not sure why Apple went with the different GUI for their textbooks, but its the same for the ones authored by the big publishers. If you want to see what the format is like on the iPad, there's a short free textbook (Wilson's Life on Earth) and sample chapters from others available from the iBookstore.
On a side note, one interesting thing about using texts in the two different orientations is that the formating changes as well. Figures that show up as larger embedded images in the horizontal layout are smaller images in the left margin in the vertical layout, at least in Wilson's book.

Place panoramic window in Acrobat but it doesn't show if converted to a page flip brochure

Hi there
I am using Acrobat to insert a swf file of a 360 degree window so a user can view a room all around. This can be added to a PDF document no problems but I would like to convert the document to a page turning brochure. I have tried converting the document with the swf file in the PDF but it is not showing in the page flip brochure.
Does anybody know if this is possible or reasons why it is not working or can be corrected.
I look forward to hearing from you

Hi
I have been looking for another program/software package but can't find it. :-(

HELP! FLash Page flip

Okay
I began as an intern at an agency, but all the designers are
gone and I'm the only one left. I have a problem with a flash
Page-flip component that we are using on our website.
I used flash for the first time ever last week.
I've got the pages sorted and even imported an swf animation
onto a page.
However I need to know how to control the animation so that
it starts when the page it is on is turned, not when the whole book
is loaded. So the viewers see the animation working, when it is
visible.
An example of the page flip component is here:
http://www.mymelodi.com/prophp/Main.php?MagID=1&MagNo=1
Can anyone help? I've tried books and miles of coding but I
know f*** all about flash, to have done even this much has been a
miracle.
Any help would be appreciated, I fear I am alone on the deck
of a sinking ship................. S - O - S

PDF to Flash - Page Flip

Hello Folks,
I am looking at the possiblity of DYNAMICALLY converting my
PDF brochures to a Flash PAGE FLIP presenation on the web. I have
many PDF brochures that are created customized for my customers.
When then login to my site, I would like for them to view this PDF
but with a Page Flip view ? Can someone guide me to toolsets that
are available that will make this happen ?

Page flipping

Hi guys, once again...
I have a book with some interactions in each of the pages and as for right now, to go from one page to another I use a simple button, stopping all the functions and interactions working in the first page:
toPage5_Btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, page5);
function page5(event:MouseEvent):void {
    channel.stop();
    autito_mc.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, dragTheObject);
    toPage5_Btn.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, page5);
    gotoAndStop (5);
Now, what I was asked to do is to give it a look of a page flip, so, the user, instead of touching the button, can swith the pages as an e-book.
I have searched the web looking for ideas and examples but I couldn´t find anything.
Does anyone knows how to do it, and or where I can look at?
Thanks a lot!

PDF Page Flip Feature Request

Flip books have become popular over the past years and I would like to see the ability to flip through pdf's with a page turn option. This could be a view with a one page or two page layout. This functionality would not have to have the robust rendering that a true Flash page flip book has but just an animated quick flip, much like you see on common book readers. I know this is a small thing but it makes a big difference in perception when one is scrolling through a PDF verses reading through it like a book. Is this feature a current consideration?
Thank you,
Brandon Buie

+1 For that Feature Request . Everybody will be happy to see pdf contents in ''page flip" mode (except Adobe programmers).
