About:
|
|
This converter is an open source tool which has been designed
to convert files from Macromedia Flash format to the W3C recommendation for vector
graphics SVG version 1.1 (link).
At the moment this software only converts static flash and all the movements
are being ignored. Animations are planned to be implemented in the next versions.
|
|
|
The documentation and source code of the project is available from
here.
In case of any questions please email alig1982(at)googlemail.com

| Web converter tool: |

To convert your flash files just select the flash file and press Convert!
Your flash needs to be small (less than 500,000 bytes).

Important:
I am currently writing my dissertation for this project and please note that
I might include a demonstration of the flash you send here in my dissertation.
Your flash file will not be used in any other sort of way and will not be sent
to any other third parties whatsoever. If you want me to include your name in
my dissertation please remember to fill the "comments" form which appears
after you convert your flash.

Change log:
|
|
0.3.8 (build 111): Fixed another bug related to huge tags (+2.0 MB)
|
|
|
0.3.8 (build 105): Fixed a bug which prevented some long tags to be read
|
|
|
0.3.8 (build 96): Now supports static texts conversion
Note: Dynamic text boxes are not supported yet. It is possible that some text wihtin a
flash that seems to be "static" is defined as an un-editable dynamic text box.
Also SWF version 8.0 has some new font definition tags that are not documented
publicly (e.g. tag type #73 and #75) therefore these texts are not convertable at the moment.
|
|
|
0.3.7 (build 68): Full support added for linear/radial gradient fills and
their positioning.
Note: For being able to view these fills, a SVG player is needed which supports "pattern"s and also
fill transformations. Mozilla Firefox 1.5 has not implemented these features yet.
You can try Adobe's plug-in for IE as an alternitive.
|
|
|
0.3.6 (build 45): Fixed bugs related to definition of new fill/line styles
within a shape and referencing them
|
|
|
0.3.6 (build 37): Fixed a problem while reading style indices with length 0
|
|
|
0.3.6 (build 30): Better support for "gradient" fills but still problems
with fill transformations
|
|
|
0.3.6 (build 25): Added support for linear/radial gradient fills
|
|
|
|
If you get empty SVG:
|
|
It is probably because the file you are trying to convert has embeded ActionScript. ActionScript is
not supported in this version of the converter. Other problems might occur if the flash file is based
heavily on bitmap fills and jpeg images since this converter does not have support for embedded
images yet. If you had any questions please contact
