[Xerte] Flash Paper

[Julian Tenney]

See what happens if you use the swf as an image in a graphic icon. It
ought to load and display, but what happens next will be in part down to
the coding in the swf, and the assuptions when it runs. If the
developers did their job properly, it ought to not mind if it gets
loaded up into another flash movie, but frequently with these sorts of
applications, there are problems when you try to do this. Sometimes you
can work around it, sometimes not.

Hi Robert,

 

The list is usually pretty quiet over the weekend, so it might have to
wait till Monday.

 

If the SWF doesn't work as flashpaper - does it work as a SWF? There
should be an page type that allows you to upload a SWF itself.

 

It might be that the flash created is using a preloader, and your swf
loads another swf?

 

Hope this helps

 

Pat

The Flash Paper template seems simple enough but I can't get it to work
on my standalone version nor on John Sewell's online version.
On John's site, after uploading the file I at least get a preview (of
sorts). but when I "play" the file and navigate to that page, nothing is
shown.

I do not have Adobe's Flash Paper product.   I used "Print2Flash" free
edition to convert a Word document to  SWF.   Is this some compatibility
issue with Print2Flash's conversion?
