2.) How to compile/link swftools on Unix/Linux/BSD?
- Download swftools-0.x.x.tar.gz and t1lib-1.3.1.tar.gz.
+ Download swftools-0.x.x.tar.gz. Then type, on the
+ command-line:
- gzip -d swftools-0.x.x.tar.gz
- gzip -d t1lib-1.3.1.tar.gz
- tar -xf t1lib-1.3.1.tar
- cd t1lib-1.3.1
- ./configure
- make
- make install
- cd ..
- tar -xf swftools-0.x.x.tar
+ tar -zvxf swftools-0.x.x.tar
cd swftools-0.x.x
./configure
make
make install
+ (you will have to be root for the last step)

3.) What libraries do I need to compile swftools on Unix/Linux/BSD?
You need t1lib, freetype and jpeglib to compile pdf2swf.
LDFLAGS=-lstdc++ ./configure
-6.) Is there a pdf2swf/avi2swf for Windows?
+6.) How do I compile swftools on Mac OS X?
+
+ You need to get fink (http://fink.sourceforge.net), and install it.
+ After this, you need to install all the required libs (jpeg, freetype, lame):
+
+ fink install libjpeg libjpeg-shlibs freetype2 freetype2-shlibs lame lame-shlibs
+
+ Then, you have to inform configure of where they are:
+
+ LDFLAGS="-L/sw/lib" CPPFLAGS="-I/sw/include -I/sw/include/lame" ./configure
+ make
+ sudo make install
+
+ If this doesn't work, especially if you want to use the python library and
+ get weird exceptions, try to remove all versions of jpeglib, freetype and
+ lame from /usr/lib and /usr/local/lib, and then run configure/make/make install
+ again.
+
+7.) Is there a pdf2swf/avi2swf for Windows?
Windows versions of all SWF utilities are downloadable from
http://www.quiss.org/swftools/download.html
Notice: For now, the utilities need to be installed to C:\SWFTOOLS to make pdf2swf work-
otherwise it won't be able to find its fonts.
-7.) Where's the source code of the Windows version?
+8.) Where's the source code of the Windows version?
It's the same as the Unix source code. If you want to compile
under Windows, it's recommended that you get the CVS version
CXX=i386-mingw32msvc-g++ CPP=i386-mingw32msvc-cpp CC=i386-mingw32msvc-gcc \
./configure --host=i586-mingw32msvc && make
-8.) The fonts in the SWFs generated by pdf2swf are wrong!
+9.) The fonts in the SWFs generated by pdf2swf are wrong!
Watch the output of pdf2swf closely.
You should see something like:
to (on Windows) C:\SWFTools\Fonts\, or (on Unix) /usr/local/share/swftools/fonts
to make it work all the time.
-9.) Can png2swf handle transparency?
+10.) Can png2swf handle transparency?
It supports PNG mode 2 transparency (256 color palettes with alpha) since version 0.4.2.
Mode 6 (32 bit RGBA truecolor) is also supported since version 0.4.4.

+11.) How to do Flash MX compression with SWFTools?
Most tools support the -z flag for outputting compressed SWF.
Furthermore you can compress/uncompress SWF files using swfcombine:
decompresses.

+12.) avi2swf converts my avi files upside down!
Try using the -p (--flip) switch.
