Also, it might just become "How can I turn MS Office formats into SWF without being bound to a license agreement that forces me to keep the abominable interface that FlashPaper bundles with the SWF instead of being able to roll my own." ;) (And keep in mind that he was looking for a solution that works under Linux, too.) cheers, till ps: I know I'm being harsh about the FlashPaper interface: It actually is pretty usable and complete. But does anyone think it is anywhere near being pretty? Nah, I didn't think so ;) _______________________________________________ osflash mailing list [email protected] http://osflash.org/mailman/listinfo/osflash_osflash.org
