Problem exporting to .swf from ID CS5

Hello all. I have an 18-page InDesign document with animation, buttons, etc and just tried exporting it as a swf. I get a separate swf file for every page, but my client has requested a single swf file containing all the pages. I just watched a video where the user exported their ID doc as a swf and the final product had all the pages. The export window in ID seems pretty straightforward... Can anybody tell me what I am missing? Do I need to combine the swf files in Flash?

Thank you for your response. I think I've figured out the problem. I was using the SWF presenter script in InDesign. It exports every page as a swf and places them back into InDesign automatically in their own layer. It is very useful when your final product will be a pdf and you want the pdf to support the animations you have created. That is why I ended up with 18 separate swfs.
I tried exporting the manual way as a swf and I now have all of my pages in one file.

Not able to export quicktime movie from Flash CS5 or CS6.

Hi! I am not able to export quicktime movie from Flash CS5 or CS6. When I export it the progress bar is showing and says Recording Flash content and nothing happens

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?

Can you export a SWF in photoshop CS5 or CS6?

I have a client that has provided me SWF files that swear were exported from Photoshop, I know that this could be done in earlier versions. if so then how can this be done in CS5 or CS6. I have access to both.

To my knowledge, the ability to export as .swf was removed after CS3. Do you know what version of Photoshop your client was using?
Here are some past threads regarding this topic:

Exporting to .pdf from InDesign CS5

Probably a real simple question to answer, but I'm stumped. I'm trying to export a 6 page newsletter to a .pdf format from InDesign CS5; it comes out as a 4 page document with the following orientation: The first page is fine (vertical on letter size), the 2nd & 3rd pages show up side by side (horz./letter) as does pages 4 & 5. The 6th page again is fine (vertical/letter). I never had this issue with CS4... Any suggestions? Thanks in advance, Wharton

Hi Tom,
I looked up the Spreads option in InDesign help to see what you were referring to... I see most of the options described, but the Spreads option doesn't appear to available in the "Export to Interactive PDF" pop-up box.
The options I've chosen are: Pages-All; View after Exporting; Embed Page Thumbnails; View-Default; Layout/Single Page; Presentation-Open in full screen Mode; Page transitions-None; Buttons and Media-Include all... I don't believe that the Image Handling section would be the issue, but I chose, JPEG (Lossy), Maximum quality and a resolution of 300.
Thanks

Problem Exporting to PDF from Report Designer 2008

When I export my report from Report Designer unless I deselect the "Create Bookmarks from group tree" I get the following error: "Failed to export the report" If I deselect the option It will successfully create the PDF.
I am running Crystal Reports 2008 with service pack 2. I also have Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 loaded on the machine.

You should start debugging by removing parts of the report to determine what is causing the problem. Once you find that part then re-post with a question on how to work around the problem.

Having trouble exporting to PDF from InDesign CS5?

This background tasks looks good on paper, but it isn't working in the real world.
There are some serious problems with this feature.
Exporting to PDF just spools away on certain files.
Anyone else experiencing this?
I've tried ALL the workarounds, but it seems to me that we shouldn't have to "print to postcript."
This should be an automatic and thoughtless feature.

So far, the PDFs I've made from CS5 files have all turned out okay (knock on wood), but I'm wondering if there's a way _not_ to have the PDF export happen in the background. I'd just like to have a more positive idea of when the PDF was actually finished being exported.
It seems to me that many years ago (or maybe it was in QuarkXPress), the PDF export happened in the background, and it caused problems because it was easy to send off an incomplete PDF if one wasn't careful.
Thoughts?

Prroblems Exporting .MOV files from Flash CS5

I am having trouble exporting my animations created in Flash CS5 (or Macromedia flash 5, or CS3) to .MOV files. I'm having these issues on different platforms (mac and pc) and different operating systems (XP and win 7) - I only get error messages and out of memory errors, even on the fastest computer I have with 4gig of RAM working on a 2mg Flash file.
I just want to convert my Flash files to a format that can play on Youtube and standard DVD players. Also I've tried many converters (flash to video) - not all free (Moyea, Roxio, iWisoft, Winfx Video Converter, Amor, E.M. Magic, etc, etc) - nothing works. The main problems are either the sound is not synched, the playback is choppy, and the quality is awful.
I think my only hope of getting a good video is starting with a good .MOV file exported from Flash. I know the program is supposed to do this.
Any help greatly appreciated.
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flash/cs/using/WSBC0687D4-42A6-445d-B5FF-8032C7D3A8FF.html#WS6 A15AAE2-C176-4161-BAB6-FB082F63B65Ba

Exporting the video at a slower FPS with all the settings maxed and then speeding it up later may not be the most practical and adding a few extra steps can increase the chances of error...I wasn't willing to maniuplate the frame rate, so I tried with the highest video settings and my file ended up being 10GB in size for a video with 1689 frames, and there were STILL artifacts.
There's also the option of exporting your sequence as individual frames and recombinging them using Quicktime Pro (I found that on another forum), and Quicktime Pro is a pretty cheap program ($20?). Just remember to hide your motion guides and activate your masks (right click on your masks in the timeline and select Show Masks), or they'll show up in your frames and you'll have to start again. Also, when inputting your individual frames, remember to select the correct frame speed to it matches the one that you're working with. From there, you have a complete video clip that you can input into any editing suite (heck, Windows Movie Maker is adequate if you're just putting it on YouTube).
Either way, Flash Professional doesn't appear to be capable of generating a .MOV that works outside of the box on its own, at least not without the addition of a 3rd party plugin. Given the proliferation of animation projects on TV that are animated using Flash, I was thinking that Flash SHOULD have a way to render a .MOV file properly (ie: without dropping frames and leaving behind artifacts because it's taking too long to read the frame), but then, it's best to use the right tools for the job. You can use most of the tools in Creative Suite/Cloud to generate the same layered image, but every single application has a specific purpose:
Photoshop can handle text layouts, vector imagery, and animation, but it's best at manipulation of raster images.
Illustrator can handle text layouts and some manipulation of raster images, but it's best at creating and editing vector images.
InDesign can do some manipulation of raster images (or at least it imports them) and creating/drawing of vector images, but it's best at text layouts for multi-page documents and arranging images.
Flash allows you to layout text, draw image vectors, and manipulate rasters, but its best for animation and interactive content (I draw my characters in Illustrator first then import then in Flash...Flash drawing tools just drive me buggy).
Your video editing suite (and probably Premiere...haven't used Premiere in a long time, so I can't say for sure) can handle some text inputs, does some animation, but it's best for taking existing video and audio clips (from whatever sources) and editing them non-linearly.
I'll need someone in the biz to confirm this, but I do suspect that for studio based Flash animation projects that end up on TV (eg: Teen Titans Go!, My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic), they wouldn't be generating the show entirely using Flash (laying down soundtrack and dialogue as well) and then exporting to .MOV. It's more likely that they'd be exporting individual clips without audio (either using the slow frame rate method or by exporting individual frames and importing to Quicktime) and using a non-linear video editor to edit the clips and lay down audio tracks accordingly.

How do I export a SWF from CS4 and make it viewable for clients?

I'm currently using Indesign CS4 and just learned how to export an animated file as a SWF file. Once exported I have both a SWF file and a HTML file, however when I send either file to a client they don't open. How to I format the file for customer viewing?
Thank you

Thank you so much that worked. Is there a more professional way to send a client a link instead of two files? I can just see the confusion from it. Thank
you again.

Problem exporting to PDF from ID CS6. Objects are missing in PDF.

Hello!
I created a large format poster (24x36 inches) in ID CS6 to be printed. My printer requires PDF files to print from. My problem is that when I export my ID file to PDF, objects are missing. For example, in this file, the company logo in the upper left corner of the poster is incomplete (missing the orange color fill with white text in orange circle.) This object was originally created in AI CS6 then imported to the ID document.
I am pulling my hair out trying to fix this and have not been able to find like issues online. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thank you!!!!

The missing object is visible with Overprint Preview turned on.

Problems making a PDF from Indesign CS5

Hi friends. I have recently switched to CS5 and I find that I usually need to close the program and then reopen it before I can make a PDF. It says it is working in the background but all it does is spin without creating the PDF. Anyone else having this problem?
TED

I have been reading this thread and am very confused about the assertion that somehow a problem encountered in the initial release of InDesign 7 will require any user "to pay more to get a fix!" There is no known fix at this time, for free for for any charge. And Adobe does not charge anything extra for the dot releases with the fixes for problems reported by users or discovered internally.
If someone on this thread really believes that they were given that type of misinformation by someone at Adobe, please contact me off-forum (click on my name for my e-mail address) with particulars (when and who told exactly what with regards to obtaining a "fix") and I will gladly follow-up on this ASAP.
BTW, contrary to assertions made here, yes, testing was done with PDF export both internally within Adobe and with a reasonably large group of pre-release external testers. The problem did not come up even with very complex InDesign documents hundreds of pages long. That doesn't mean that there isn't some problem that really needs to get resolved ASAP, but rather, despite attempts to provide wide test coverage, there are circumstances (including user-specific configurations, drivers, OS versions, etc.) that simply cannot be unmasked until literally thousands of users get their hands on the software. Adobe makes the best effort to respond to these issues as quickly as possible of course trying to make sure that any "fix" doesn't break other features.
- Dov
PS: Update - at least one beta tester did in fact see this problem but the InDesign team wasn't able to reproduce the problem at that time. We will make sure that they are very aware that the problem, if not easily reproducible in our labs, is very real and needs fixing ASAP.

Problem Printing onto CDs from Photoshop CS5 - Canon MG6150 printer

I cannot find a solution to this problem anywhere!! I have a Canon Pixma MG6150 printer and have designed a CD/DVD label using Photoshop CS5. The proportions are all correct, when printed on paper from within Photoshop I can cut out the label and it fits my printable media perfectly.
The problem is printing directly onto the CD or DVD using the printer's CD print tray. I cannot get the alignement correct -- the label will only print halfway off the media or more, so only a small section of my label appears on the CD. I have tried various settings from within Photoshop's print options and none work.
How can I get my label design to print onto the DVD or CD? Any help is HUGELY appreciated.
I am running Mac OSX 10.6.5.

I was testing other Imacs running the same photoshop CS5.1 with the new printer drivers from canon and it prints. They are running OSX10.6.8. My new computer is running 10.9.2 and it will not print from photoshop. Is the driver not compatible with the operating system? Is there something to try other than saying the driver is at fault. Do I complain to Canon to update their driver to work? What is a work around?
Thanks,

Exporting to Quicktime from Flash CS5 has gliches

I have been exporting to QT movies from Flash 8 without any hassles, but when I export from a Flash to a Quicktime movie it has issues rendering- pixels hanging on the screen, low quality audio. I've tried with many different options and they all have the same issue. Help!

So what is the recourse here....select the option for exporting whatever the resolution is of the timeline. This usually gives me Mpeg1
I'm not following you here. Can you clarify?
Also am I right in assuming that Matrox HD compressing for H.264 is not available in CS 5.5?
I can't say for sure, but if the specs for the hardware say it should work with CS5.5, then it should. That, of course, is contingnent on having updated drivers, etc. from Matrox. Do you have the latest versions installed? If so, and it's *supposed* to work, that's an issue for the Matrox support folks. What hardware specifically are you talking about?
EDIT: OK, I see what hardware you're talking about. The card says its compatible with AME on a PC, but I didn't see anything specifically about AME on a Mac. It may not work with the Mac version of AME.
