-Priorities:
-1. Make the swfs that pdf2swf generates smaller
-2. Make pdf2swf faster
-3. General improvements
-4. Make pdf2swf cope with more complex pdfs
-5. Do some sample swfs for swfcombine
-6. Cleanups in rfxswf-lib.
+General:
-Make the swfs pdf2swf generates smaller:
+ * make more stuff dependent on the information in config.h
+ * consistent output handling if -o is missing. (out.swf/stdout)
+ * do some pf{a,b}->swf converter for the standard fonts
- * At the moment, the output of pdf2swf is a bunch of
- polygons. Try using seperate shapes for each character,
- and packing all shapes of a page in a font.
+pdf2swf:
-Make pdf2swf cope with more complex pdfs:
-
- The following pdf properties are not yet dealt with:
- * Links
- * lossless image file formats
- * dashed lines
- * (type 3 and truetype fonts)
- Bugs:
- * big jpegs sometimes have wrong colors
-
-Make pdf2swf faster:
-
- * Embedded fonts which are used more than once are also converted more
- than once. Implement a font cache, like the one in xpdf. (font->getID().num
- seems to be unique for every font)
+ * The following pdf properties are not yet dealt with:
+ o dashed lines (maybe by using fillstyle to keep Shapes small, maybe
+ optional- use another color for dashed lines)
+ o (type 3 and truetype fonts)
+ * temporary file name generation is broken: pdf2swf/pdf2swf.cc, pdf2swf/xpdf/gfile.cc
+ * fix memory leaks
-Do some sample swfs for swfcombine:
+swfcombine:
- * Some swf for displaying other swfs frame by frame (e.g. with next/previous
- buttons) would be very handy for swfs generated by pdf2swf
+ * Allow substituting frames (which have a name), too?
+ * Allow ids instead of names
+ * Relocate SetTarget "/content" stuff
+ * --merge mode? (Doesn't store everything in movieclips)
-General Improvements:
+swfdump:
- * temporary file name generation is broken: pdf2swf/pdf2swf.cc, pdf2swf/xpdf/gfile.cc
- * fix memory leaks
- * rfxswf: modules/swfshape doesn't allow changing to fillstyle 0
- * write manpages for swfstrings and swfdump
- * --version should work in all tools.
+ * Support for actionscript in buttons. Make the output shorter.
-Cleanups in rfxswf-lib:
+rfxswf-lib:
+
+ * swf_WriteFont() should write definefont2 tags for more complex fonts.
+ * modules/swfshape doesn't allow changing to fillstyle 0
+ * modules/swffont:TextSetInfoRecord doesn't allow changing to coordinate 0
+ * s/GetDataSize/GetTagLen/g
+ s/GetDataSizePtr/GetTagLenPtr/g
+ (s/GetFrameNo/GetTagFrameNo/g ?)
- * LPTAGs etc. should be TAG*s
- * function names should have a prefix (rfxswf_ or swflib_ or sth.)
- * GetMatrix should be named GetMATRIX, as it gets a MATRIX datatype. Same for CXFORM etc.
