Is there any way to generate PDF files on flash? If no pdf plugin is needed, it would be better. The ideal would be that flash generates the PDF file and prompts the user to save the file on disk.
I am trying to find a way that I can print a range of jpgs that aren't currently loaded in my movie.
I have a list of thumbnails of photos (with correlating larger version residing externally)each with a number. I want the user to be able to specify a range they would like to print. I think I've gotten close by trying to create a new cast member and load the jpg into it for each one in the range. However my movie keeps hanging and not responding why I try that method.
I am trying to create a print button on the last frame that will allow the user to print just that frame. I've tried using the printjob object, but all that I can get to happen is print a blank sheet of paper. Here is the code that I have so far:
function printScore(event:MouseEvent):void { var printJob:PrintJob = new PrintJob();
i want to simply print 2 movieClips when i press a Print button. so i have the "_root.container_mc" and "_root.logo_mc"... paste the simplest code for printing a "landscape" page with these 2?
I am trying to make a print button that will print the contents of a mc...this mc basically holds a dynamically drawn floorplan which can be zoomed and panned...I want to be able to print the contents of the mc, and only what is viewable in the mc at the time of the print...so if you are zoomed in, all that prints are the actual objects visibly seen in the mc...I think it may be with the print command using bmovie but I have no idea how to assign a #b lable to the frame.
[Code]... and go to the print section and then check out the print pieces. for some reason my resizing gallery movie is doing some weird stuff and i cant figure out how to fix it. my actionscript goes like this :
I am not able to print more than 5 pages in one go. I want to print almost 12 pages in one print job. I am creating the movieclips of each page by adding the dynamic data in to it and store in an array. When all the movieclips created and stored in an array(pagesAry) then it call the following function to print those pages:
private function sendToPrinter():void { pj = new PrintJob(); try
[code]....
Getting error: Print job canceled as it took more than 15 seconds to complete.
how do I go about printing entire, scrollable text area in flash movie, I know how to print entire page but when text file is scrollable it doesn't print whole text.
The stand-alone Flash player has an option to print a SWF. However, there is no shell action registered for this, and as far as I can see the only way to do it is to use a keyboard macro (or do something invasive such as inject a DLL in the player). Is there some official API for this?
In my web app, I would like to print a web page via a real, physical printer using Flash.I want to do this so that typical page headers added by the browser (eg. the URL and "Page x of y") do not get added to the printout.Perhaps I could generate a PDF and pass it to the SWF, or perhaps I could just send raw HTML ann CSS to the SWF, and then I could call some .print() method via Javascript against the SWF. So, 1) is this possible? and 2) is there a library (on GitHub perhaps) somewhere that would let me do this?
Does AS3 have a way to output the physical name of a key that has been pressed? (ie. "You pressed: Left Arrow")
The obvious solution is to convert the character code to a string, but this only works for things like the alphanumeric keys. Ctrl, Alt, etc have special cases, but this still doesn't help for things like the arrow keys or the F-keys.
Another possibly naive option is to have a Key, Value pair for all the keycodes and their names. It should be almost trivial (if tedious) to code this myself, but since AIR already has things like
KEYNAME_LEFTARROW : String = "Left"
I was wondering if this ability is already built in somewhere without having to keep my own collection of strings.
I'm working on an instructional flash project about forklifts. At the end of the film, my boss wants the user to be able to press a button and print an external PDF document. Is that possible and how? To print the PDF document without opening it in Acrobat Reader?
All I want to do is create a Print button and then have it Print an external PDF file. I've tried talking my clients into just having a download PDF button then print from that. But they don't like having an extra step, they just want to be able to click the Print button in flash and have it print the external PDF.
I'm in the process of making a web page that'll successfully checked as XHTML 1.0 Transitional ([URL]), but as soon as I place in the fixit.js script under the flash object and view the page in IE, all the flash elements turn white. Quote:
[Code]...
Anyone knows how to place in flash files in xhtml files on IE without manually controls by clicking on the flash file.
Im looking for the best way to export an image from flash for print. I will be needing to print anywhere from about 12 inches long all the way up to as much as 6 ft long. Ive tried export> image options but the quality is severely compromised.
is there a way to print an image from flash?? it is better to have an example with text printing because i need to print both things at a time. here is my code, it is somehow not working.[code]i can trace the frame width and height. but no image printed.
I need to be able to print an image that has been externally loaded on to the stage.I have no trouble printing text from an XML file, and I can also load the image, but for some reason it doesn't want to print out..[code]
is it possible to print all the frames of a flash presentation?I don't use Flash that much, I update a flash file that was created by someone else, but now I've been asked to do a print out.Any ideas on the best way? I'm not a fluent user of Flash, I know nothing about AS or any of that jazz. I've just been inserting images and text and tweening them - that's as much as I know how to do.
Following up from: http:[url]...I am trying to comeup with a function to print without creating a sprite, because that's what it seems to be causing my problem:
public function printScreen():void { var pJob:PrintJob = new PrintJob(); var options:PrintJobOptions = new PrintJobOptions();[code]....
This is coming up with an: Error: Description Implicit coercion of a value of type flash.display:Bitmap to an unrelated type flash.display:Sprite. So how do you print a bitmap without creating a Sprite?
I would like the clients to print what they are seeing at the moment with the flash program.How is this possible? That is why I said (print screen of program) because its actually printing what the person is seeing at the moment.The thing is that my program leads to certain places and combinations of photos.So I would like this functionality.
