Answer: On VeryPDF now there is also no software which can help you convert flash to PDF directly but we have software which can help you convert flash to image and then image to PDF. By this method, I guess you can convert flash to PDF. VeryPDF Flash to Image Converter supports variety of the conversions based on the flash files, e.g., Flash to image, SWF to JPG, SWF to GIF, SWF to JAPE, SWF to JPEG, SWF to TIFF, SWF to PNG, SWF to BMP and ect. And VeryPDF Image to PDF Converter also can help you convert image to PDF directly. Please check more information of those two software on homepage, in the following part, I will show you how to convert flash to PDF step by step.
Step 1. Convert flash to image.
- Download Flash to Image Converter. There are two versions of this software: GUI version and command line version. Here I will take the command line version for example.
- When downloading finishes, there will be a zip file. Please extract it to some folder then you can find the executable file and call it from MS Dos Windows. Here are some command line templates for your reference:
swf2img.exe -in "D:\temp\test.swf" -out "D:\out\test.png"
By this command line, we can convert flash to image png directly.
swf2img.exe -in "D:\temp\test.swf" -out "D:\out\test-%04d.png" -width 800 -height 600
By this command line we can convert flash to image and specify image height and width.
swf2img.exe -in "D:\temp\test.swf" -out "D:\out\test-%04d.png" -timer 1000
swf2img.exe -in "D:\temp\test.swf" -out "D:\out\test-%04d.png" –hidewindow
By this command line, we can convert flash to image and hide conversion Windows.
swf2img.exe -in "D:\temp\test.swf" -out "D:\out\test-%04d.png" -$ XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
By this command line, we can convert flash to image and register it.
Step 2. Convert image from flash to PDF.
- Download Image to PDF Converter Command Line. There are many versions of this software too, I also take the command line version for example. If you are not familiar with the command line, please choose the GUI version.
- Please use the same method to install this software.
