ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Read/load .doc/.docx
May 5, 2010
To my knowledge as3 cannot read the contents of a .doc/.docx file (it can, but it gets stuck in the beginning random/garbage data. Does this have to do with xml formatting?). Am I correct?
If I am correct in assuming as3 cannot read .doc/.docx files, does anyone know a workaround for this? I don't need the formatting, just the text. Can I skip the beginning garbage data? (How do I determine where the good data starts? Is it fixed location I can begin at?) Can I convert it to a .txt file in javascript or php or some other language? (I know very little about them, but am willing to learn) Is there another workaround that I haven't thought of that is worth looking into?

We are in the process of developing a CRM application and for that we need to upload *.doc and *.docx files and display that contents.
We successfully uploaded the *.doc and *.docx files in application by using FileReference and FileReferenceList. Would you please tell me some idea to read the contents from *.doc and *.docx files and to display the uploaded file content into flex text area.

was just wondered if it is possible to link to a bookmark in a microsoft word document? I figured it would work similar to how you'd link to a bookmark in a HTML file but to no avail. heres my code so far:
btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, lndFunction);function lndFunction(event: MouseEvent) { var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("test.docx#number8"); navigateToURL(request, "_self");}

Basically we want to be able to open up a docx file in as3 or Flex 4 and convert it to a text flow while preserving formatting, embedded images, tables, columns, etc. I know theorectically it's possible as the new Text Layout Framework is powerful enough to pull it off, but I haven't been able to find any case where someone has achieved anything along these lines except for Adobe's BuzzWord web app which does just this. Ideally the solution would be for RTF documents as conversions to RTF from anything are pretty familiar.

Using the office open XML format by microsoft I was able to create the files needed for a clean Word document. These files are all XML files. What I do is write the XML content to a different bytearray for each file.
I then add the bytearray's to the FZIP library [url] and create a docx file using the following code:
CODE:
Ok this creates a new docx file in my documents. If I rename the .docx to .zip and unzip it it will follow the exact structure needed for Word documents (example: [url]
In this example "Untitled Document" was originally "Untitled document.docx" (then renamed to .zip and extracted)
So you can see everything works fine untill... you try to open the "Untitled document.docx" in Word. It will say the file is corrupt.
WHAT DOES WORK HOWEVER... After extracting the docx file (like in screenshot) when you select all the files/folders inside the Untitled Document folder and ZIP those, then rename ZIP file to docx (see result: [url]) it works fine in Word and word reads the file correctly.
NOTE: If you try to zip and rename the Untitled Document folder again it will become corrupt again as well.
So my question: What could be the problem that the word file is corrupt when zipped using FZIP in actionscript 3 but works fine when you ZIP the files after extracting your corrupt file.

I was wondering if there was a way to dynamically load JPEGs and read their width/ height attributes before they actually land on stage. I have tried it once wherein I hide the targetted movie clip and try to utilize the INIT functin to check for initialize. This works pretty good except that a little dynamic animation I need tends to act a little later than it should creating a bug if u proceed immediately.

I'm going to implement a file uploading application using flex 3.5 and php. In the flex code I need to read the content of the uploaded file without calling the FileReference.load() method (Since it is a big issue when uploading large files). I checked many online articles and didn't find a way to do this in flex.access the content of this file without using FileReference.load() method?

A friend of mine has a Flash Action script running on a LAMP server that currently reads an xml config file. He's asked me if it's possible to remove the xml file, and replace it somehow with a system (lets call it an 'auto xml generator') that intercepts the request to read that file and generates an output, so it appears to all intents and purposes as if the file still exists and contains the contents that has actually been returned from our auto xml generator'
