I am looking for an app to use to extract text from swf files.

In my work, I try make things as easy as possible. One of my responsibilities is extracting text from fla files, which then gets translated. Thereafter, I have to translate the fla's.

I am trying to find a quicker route to do these text extractions.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thx

Not that this is helpful for your current situation, but moving forward if you could get the original developers to make flash ads that bring in text from XML, that way you'll only need to create a new xml file and pass it in.

You can also try SWFDecompiler, that will convert the swfs to flas which you can then go in and copy/paste the text in and out of. Be careful with this as the actionscript does not always translate perfectly, it should however work fine for copying the text though.
