.SH NAME
png2swf - Takes a number of png files and converts them to a swf movie, one
picture per frame.

.SH Synopsis
.B png2swf [-X width] [-Y height] [-o file.swf] [-r rate] file1.png [file2.png...]

.SH DESCRIPTION
This tools converts png image files into an SWF animation. It takes any
number of input pictures, and converts them to SWF one-by-one, where every
converted picture is a seperate frame in the target SWF. 
.PP
The way the
images are encoded in SWF is very similar to PNG (in that a zlib-based, lossless
compression algorithm is used).

.SH OPTIONS
.TP

    Set movie framerate (frames per second)
.TP
\fB\-o\fR, \fB\-\-output\fR \fIfilename\fR

.TP
\fB\-j\fR, \fB\-\-jpeg\fR \fIquality\fR
    Generate a lossy jpeg bitmap inside the SWF, with a given quality (1-100)
.TP
\fB\-z\fR, \fB\-\-zlib\fR \fIzlib\fR        
    Use Flash MX (SWF 6) Zlib encoding for the output. The resulting SWF will be

    Set the flash version to generate
.TP
\fB\-X\fR, \fB\-\-pixel\fR \fIwidth\fR

    Force movie height to \fIheight\fR (default: autodetect)
.TP
\fB\-v\fR, \fB\-\-verbose\fR \fIlevel\fR
