Re: [Swftools-common] size of swfs

Hi, Matthias,

I'm encountering the same problem too, and would also love to know a solution to get rid off the boxes, other than the postprocessing method.

I'm wondering why the same generated swf can be correctly sized by the flash player. Can you dive into the details a bit?
Also, 80% of the generated swf (by pdf2swf) doesn't have this problem, if not more. If I apply the postprocessing method, how will it affect these correctly generated swf's? A little more detail would be helpful here too.

Thanks,

Ted

Hi Matthias.

I just had a problem loading a swf generated with pdf2swf within my flash application, I got the wrong width and height for the document after loading the complete movie clip. I then searched the lists and find your solution in an old post.

now my questing is, are there anyway to get the clip bounding boxes from inside flash to calculate the original movie size from the real movie size (took the names from swfbbox)? and for curiosity, why are pdf2swf changing the bounding box?

Greetings Andreas

I'm guessing you query the loaded movieclip for it's width and height,
in order to scale it?

Try postprocessing it with

swfbbox -c file.swf -o file.swf
