I've never tried any of this, and I'm not really familiar with Flash
Paper, but...

Google gives me this: http://www.blazepdf.com/

It's commercial (you have to buy it), but it looks like it can do what
you want.  Might be worth looking into if you can't find other
solutions.

The answer is no. We recently tried going down this path, but the FP API

Re: [Flashcoders] - dynamic content for flash paper?

2007-01-30 Thread eka

Hello :)

Flash paper is dead... Apollo is the next big project of Adobe and replace
for me FlashPaper to display books etc. With apollo you can display a PDF or
a HTML page in a MovieClip.

For me Digital Edition is baed on Apollo :
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/digitaleditions/

In 6 month or 1 year this player for me is the better :)

Now with FlashPaper you can't do nothing... FlashPaper use static text
inside with the TextSnapShot class (read the Flash documentation about this
class). But FlashPaper is based on Macromedia V1/2 components (lots of bug
inside !)

If you want create dynamic documents the best way is a dynamic flipbook :

Flash paper is dead... Apollo is the next big project of

Uh, isn't Apollo going to be a desktop app though?  I understand how
Apollo can render HTML and connect to the internet and the like, what

useful???  I don't understand your argument I suppose. Can you clarify?

Apollo.

Re: [Flashcoders] - dynamic content for flash paper?

2007-01-30 Thread eka

helo :)

I think it's very really interesting to speak about the futur of Flash/FLEX
and AS3 ... if you want only ask a question and don't speak about the
question of the future of the Flash technology .. sorry

Now FlashPaper don't work in AS3... and you can't modify the content.

I Use FlashPaper in FMS application with a sharing display of the internal
component in the FlashPaper swf and this component is bugged and very
limit.

Now for me in AS2, i repeat, the good solution is to use a custom flip book
with dynamic content. You can load in a MovieClip : swf/jpg/png/gif/external
datas... FlashPaper is just a little tool with a bad API.

For me if you want extend the FlashPaper.. use ActionScript and external
tools (PHP/JAVA/etc...) and you must create your application. Work with
FlashPaper it's a waste of time.

PS : sorry for my english ... I have evil to render comprehensible my
comment.

2007-01-30 Thread nelson ramirez

I'm not really interested in FP's capabilities as I only need it to do one
thing: print. (you don't even see they FP swfs only the printouts.
Yes FP has a lot of bugs but apollo is certainly not a replacement for it,
and in terms of print output capabilities the FP api has much better options
that the print classes.


Thanks Muzak, flashpaper on the fly via CF might be a good avenue to
investigate.
