OK..I have read a lot of other posts about pdf docs...but I haven't been able to figure out how to do it this way. I am creating a flash file in flash mx. I have buttons that I want to link to pdf files. I will then take this flash file and import it into director mx and will use this as a part of a projector file that I am going to use for a cdrom that will need to play on pc and macs. I am working on a mac. What is the best way to do this?
I have started to do the whole actionscript thang where you put the fscomomand in flash :
on (press) {
fscommand("exec", "pdfscript");
}
And then you create a script in script editor:
tell application "Finder"
activate
select file "BoardDirLeaders.pdf" of disk "NCHTESTING"
open selection
end tell
I then place the script in a folder called fscommand. The problem with this is that it will only launch pdf's if i export projector's from flash and not swfs. Even then it asks the user to run the script instead of just launcding the pdfs//////
I need to export a swf file and then import it to a director movie to then be exported out as a projector. I cannot import projectors in director. I then need this to work on mac and pc's
Any advice?
