I have used printjob in my project for printing. I have a stage with images, shapes and text etc in printing group. While printing, it takes some two to three minutes to getting print a single page. The Print Spooler window shows that 60MB for each page.
reduce this file size or how can i print without taking this long time.
i have a text inputbox in a config tab. when a user gives a input and click the "set new config" button it will go to a syatem where there will be a textbox.In thet textbox the prev input will be shown.how to do this?
I building a website and i have animations from after effects I will be importing into flash. Any time a menu button is clicked it triggers the flash timeline and plays the corresponding anumation embedded in different flash graphics. Also before the webpage moves to the main page an Flv is streamed (90seconds log. It is not embedded it is streamed). I have about 260 frames of jpegs Already compressed to about 70k each for each image. how I can reduce my file size? also my time line is 2750 frames long. This is for a client and the client requested all the animation, so how can I make this work, currently my swf file is 14.6mb
I could really use some help here, I'm trying to reduce the size of my animation for obvious reasons, usually ends up about 4mbs, im exporting from swift 3d, about 200-250 frames depending on editing. When I import the animation into flash to work with my website the resulting file is too large I think :P I was told to export from swift in avi and then import to flash after converting. Thats definetly reduced the filesize, but when I import to flash cs5 I get an empty symbol even after export from flash, nothing shows in the symbol.Can anyone tell me if im doing this right, or another way to reduce the filesize.
I have a 3D animation that is rendered to bmp frames.I have inserted the animations into a Flash doc.After editing, my final Flash movie/file is 20MB.what are the best ways of reducing or compressing the file size down to a resonable "web-ready" level? Around 8MB or lower
some buttons which are cloud shaped. When I import them from photoshop as pngs they some with a square tranparent backgroud.This makes the "hand" appear outside the cloud shapes as well as inside them (like it should).
At my job I frequently have to create Flash banners for major newspaper's websites. The specs that usually come in require a max file size of 30k or so. Usually my art department will hand me 3 or 4 screens that they want to simply move through in a loop. No biggie, until they start adding images to the files.
When I complain to them that the images are making the file sizes too big I am usually queried as to how other advertisers on these sites have full video in their ads. I understand that there are pre-loaders as well as allowed larger file sizes if you pay more for the ads.
getting image sizes down in Flash so that the images don't end up looking horrible?
I created a file which has several songs and these songs are 3 minutes in length each. Currently, these songs are looped forever. If I make it not loop, would that decrease the size of the file?
I've got an XML file which is sitting at about 300k and will only get bigger. The tag names are quite verbose so it's frustrating because it's obvious the file size would be a lot smaller if those tag names were only a couple of characters long.I'm not sure if I'm using the term "tokenizing" right, but does anyone know of a method to convert verbose text into a series of unique shorthand "tokens" or markers... and back again? I don't want to change the tag names as the logic within flash refers to them so it would mean an annoying rewrite.
I have a mov file that's 125 megabytes. I try running it on my page within a javascript scroller animation and the animation is very choppy and in fact I used css to simulate a mask but the thing doesn't get masked, probably do to the sluggishness of whole page, the page never fully loads, and the movie file makes it nearly impossible to scroll through the page. The file is just too huge.
My question is:
1) Should I convert the mov to swf - that is, is swf a more compatible and appropriate format for seamless integration in html web page?
2) Whichever I choose, how do I reduce the file size - like on youtube where the videos run seamlessly? I don't know how they are doing that.
I do have Adobe Flash CS4 Professional, if that matters.
I notice that Flash makes changes to a stage size to the right. Is there a way of making the change so it expands out from a central point, i suppose like photoshop and similar. This has caused me some problems in the past when a client has asked for the site to be increased or reduced in width for example, and it can take a considerable ammount of time to move everything accordinly
I'm building a Flash site that features a three-dimensional interface and I'm facing a significant file size problem, which will mean serious bandwidth problems when the site is online. I don't particularly want to go the route of actually bringing a 3D object into Flash, mainly because my object features transparency (it's made from glass) and papervision3d confuses me to no end. So I have two options: import as video or import as image sequence.
So I went with the image sequence idea. It was easy for me to give the viewer the ability to scrub back and forth through the looped animation and click on certain things at certain times (using invisible buttons). This gives the appearance the viewer is in a three-dimensional word, albeit on a fixed path backwards and forwards, much like a roller coaster
There's also an array of buttons down the bottom of the website that you can click on, and it will play through the image sequence (either in forward or reverse). So that works great, but even with high compression of jpegs and a low 12 fps, the swf file will be somewhere between 10 and 30mb, which is quite ridiculous!
Possible solutions include reducing the amount of images I use in the sequence, squishing it down to half the amount of images. Reducing the size of the images down to something smaller, like 800 x 600. But do you think I would get better results if I can import this as a movie instead and try to control the movie? Can I have the same control if it's an actual video file and not an image sequence?
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.
I already have a flash form(1280x1024 stagesize fullscreen) that allows the users to type in their name/age and take a photo of their face. I was thinking is it possible to print out a card , for example "credit size CARD" with flash AS3? I already read up the PrintJob in adobe web but I dont really understand/know how to use them. And of course, is it also possible to generate a unique barcode for every user and print it on the card?
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?

update: I'm doing a kiosk-type flash application. and i have a print function at the end of the application, to print the receipt... but..
1) whenever I press the PRINT button in flash, it will pop out a printing preference window and I will have to press OK then it will print. In other words, is it possible to skip selection printer window? I must print "directly" the job in the default printer. I'm develping a kiosk application and need print a "receipt".
2) and then is there any code to check if the printing succeed or fail? so that if it fail, i will display a fail msg in flash.. etc..
I am trying to print a few movieclips on one page. It looks like the PrintJob function wants to print each movieclip on it's own page. Does anyone know how to get more that one movieclip to print on the same page?
I'm trying to print a movieclip from flash. I'm using the PrintJob pageWidth and pageHeight properties to scale the clip to be as large as possible. Also, I'm trying to center the movieclip on the page.Now, in the standalone player, this works. In a browser however, the margins appear to be zero:[code]But when printing, the margins are there, and mess up the page layout (not centered + cropping).
I need to create a button, or at least a movie clip that functions like a button that will print a page when clicked. Ideally I would like to have the button as part of the flash application, which will be online embedded into a web page as a .swf. on click the print page dialog box will appear, and the user will be able to print out the web page. What is the best way to code this?
while taking Movieclip printout thru actionscipt, whatever text i used inside the Movieclip is get blurred. Moreover the print is not fit into the paper size (A4 size used).
Is there any setting available to change resolution while its get convert to bitmap and also is there any option to set "fit in to the paper size"
I want to know about how to set pdf page settings to print properties dialog box?
For Example,
If my PDF page settings is Landscape then Layout automatically shows Landscape not Portrait. and If my PDF page settings is Protrait then Layout automatically shows Portrait.
I'm making a bracket for march madness. i have everything almost finished except I want people to be able to be able to print out their team picks.I'm able to print a page but it is blank.What I have on the stage:1. A button for people to press and print out their results. (instance name: print_btn)2. A movie clip that is on the stage that is the size of the stage as a reference as to what to print. (instance name: print_mc).3. An input text field for people to type in their team.
PHP Code: import flash.printing.PrintJobprint_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, printthis);function printthis(event:MouseEvent):void { var print_mc:PrintJob = new PrintJ
