ActionScript 3.0 :: Open PDFs In Acrobat From A Swf?

Jun 9, 2011

I'm constructing a website in Flash that is based on a DVD I'd put together in Director a few years ago.

One of the major components is PDFs files that need to be printed out. I've spent the last couple of days trying to find a solution, but seem to keep hitting brick walls.

It seems that most solutions only work with projectors running from cds rather than swfs on websites.There's been a couple of snippetts I've tried that are based on opening the pdfs in a new browser window. Aside from the fact that none of them have worked so far, a new browser window is not the ideal solution.I've set up the pdfs so they open the Print dialogue as now as they open in Acrobat. So what I really need is a way to get them open in Acrobat from Flash using AS3 (or whatever else may be the solution).

}

Then open notepad and type in the following START filename.pdf Then go to save as and type in a file name then .bat

Actionscript 3 :: PDF Not Opening In Acrobat (Flash)?

Jan 27, 2012

I'm working on a Catalog for a company I'm employed with, but I'm having issues with the PDF files opening in a browser rather than Acrobat or Reader.The PDF files are all going to be on a CD, that once inserted launches a Flash .exe file which has a button for the end user to click and view the PDF. Now for Actionscript the code to open a PDF file is the same as opening a web page:

view_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.C... fl_MouseClickHandler);
function fl_MouseClickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void

ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash In PDF Is Disabling Acrobat Shortcuts?

Mar 13, 2012

I've included some simple shockwave animations in a pdf to be viewed onscreen.
The flash content seems to be disabling the arrow key (or any keyboard shortcuts for that matter) page advance in acrobat.
 
Someone in the Acrobat forum mentioned adding "stage.focus = null" but I don't seem to be having any luck with it.
 
The code I have in my first frame looks like this...
 
stop();
playButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, startMove);
function startMove(e:MouseEvent):void {

Flash - Opening PDF Document With Adobe Acrobat Reader?

Jun 7, 2011

I want to open up a pdf-document (included within the *.air-package) with adobe acrobat (or any other pdf-reader). I've followed this solution openWithDefaultApplication fails on files in application folder.

var _myfilename = "John_Doe-tax_return_2011.pdf";
// = my filename
//run:
var realFile:File = File.applicationDirectory.resolvePath(_myfilename);
var tempFile:File = File.createTempFile();
realFile.copyTo(tempFile,true);
tempFile.openWithDefaultApplication(); //nothing happens ?
//end;

I've tested it all, so it's not a directory issue
trace(tempFile.extension)
// > tmp (?? tempFile.extension = "pdf" doesn't works)
trace(realFile.exists)
// > true (original pdf-document exists!)

Flash :: Professional - File Unexpected Format Can't Open File

Jun 1, 2011

I have been working on a project for a week and suddenly it crashed during save (nothing strange had been imported or anything i just saved after moving content around) and now i cant open my file again. I contacted adobe support who claim that since the problem is related to the file this is not their problem, what a load of HORSE ****, who should i contact about this dell if its an FLA FILE!? I have already renamed the file to flash.zip then opened with WinRar and repaired as a new zip file to a different folder (which removes the corrupt content which is document something.xml) then i tried renaming this folder back to flash.fla however the file still does not open.

FLA File Will Not Open

Nov 12, 2009

I am not a stranger to Flash. I have been using it for years. I like it. I use it to create illustrations, but it has this weird issue where the more you edit the line points, the larger your file size gets, until it gets so large that you cannot open it anymore. I generally have this issue around the 7mb mark. I always try to keep an eye on my files and when they get around 3mb, I copy everything and paste them into a new file. I usually do this every two days, or so, if I am working on one illustration for a long time. However, it doesn't usually happen all at once. Today when I opened my file it was about 2mb. I closed it, and then when I went to reopen it had jumped to 14mb! I cannot open my file.

The specific error is, "There is not enough memory to open this scene. Your document is not damaged and may be safely saved. To increase available memory, close open documents or quit and use Get Info command in the Finder to allocate more memory to Flash." I have done searching on google and many people appear to get this error when there are problems with PNG's in the library for their file. The library for my file is completely empty. I have one scene, with about 10 layers. My file was created completely/exclusively in Flash. There are no PNG's or JPG's to be causing problems.

The last time this happened to me, I had a friend with a computer better than mine open the file for me, copy/paste all my layers into a new file, and then send it back. I have experience with the issue but I, unfortunately, don't know if I have any friends who can open 14mb flash files right now.
