Description : collection of utilities for working with Adobe Flash files (SWF)
Copy and paste from its homepage:
SWFTools is a collection of utilities for working with Adobe Flash files
(SWF files). The tool collection includes programs for reading SWF files,
combining them, and creating them from other content (like images, sound
files, videos or sourcecode). SWFTools is released under the GPL.
The current collection is comprised of the programs detailed below:
* PDF2SWF A PDF to SWF Converter. Generates one frame per page. Enables you
to have fully formatted text, including tables, formulas, graphics etc.
inside your Flash Movie. It's based on the xpdf PDF parser from Derek B.
Noonburg.
* SWFCombine A multi-function tool for inserting SWFs into Wrapper SWFs,
contatenating SWFs, stacking SWFs or for basic parameter manipulation
(e.g. changing size).
* SWFStrings Scans SWFs for text data.
SWFDump Prints out various informations about SWFs, like contained
images/fonts/sounds, disassembly of contained code as well as cross-reference
and bounding box data.
* JPEG2SWF Takes one or more JPEG pictures and generates a SWF slideshow from
them. Supports motion estimation compression (h.263) for better compression
of video sequences.
* PNG2SWF Like JPEG2SWF, only for PNGs.
* GIF2SWF Converts GIFs to SWF. Also able to handle animated gifs.
* WAV2SWF Converts WAV audio files to SWFs, using the L.A.M.E. MP3 encoder
library.
* AVI2SWF Converts AVI animation files to SWF. It supports Flash MX H.263
compression. Some examples can be found at examples.html. (Notice: this
tool is not included anymore in the latest version, as ffmpeg or mencoder
do a better job nowadays)
* Font2SWF Converts font files (TTF, Type1) to SWF.
* SWFBBox Allows to read out, optimize and readjust SWF bounding boxes.
* SWFC A tool for creating SWF files from simple script files. Includes
support for both ActionScript 2.0 as well as ActionScript 3.0.
* SWFExtract Allows to extract Movieclips, Sounds, Images etc. from SWF files.
* AS3Compile A standalone ActionScript 3.0 compiler. Mostly compatible with
Flex.
