did you read my previous post? all 3 formats can be imported by this little director standalone demo app I had written for you (in about 10 minutes): http://dasdeck.com/staff/valentin/tmp/textExtract.zip as I mentioned before, I think flash alone is not the right tool for this because you can't easily combine it with existing commandline tools, and I'm not aware of any DOC or PDF parsing AS3 libraries. therefor you either need a flash wrapper (e.g. zinc or haXe/neko/sreenweaverHX) that allows to call commmand line tools, or another RAD environnment like director, runtimeRev or REALbasic. cheers, valentin _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list [email protected] http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
