FDView


FDView (Flash Document Viewer) is a custom viewer for pdf2swf. It's main purpose is provide same capabilities as FlashPaper. That's present pdf documents inside a swf documents.

Right now it allows:

  • Conversion of pdf to swf files dynamically from the server. For more details see pdf2swf
  • MouseGestures. You can use mouseGestures no navigate between pages.
    • Left to right: next Page
    • Right to left: previous page
    • Left-ritght-bottom: last page
    • Left-right-top: first page

    MouseGestures is an integration of Joseba Alonso mouseGestures class.

Features I'm working on:

  • Hand tool.
  • Text Selection tool. I'm having some problems with this. Here you can see one example what I'm working with.
  • Print capabilities

  • Display more than 1 one page at the same time
  • Autoresize capabilities.
  • Public API based on flashPaper API so that the document can be controlled from another movie (ie. use it in FlashComm applications).

The project will be free and open source. I'm not still sure wich license will it be but I'm having a deeper look at GPL.

This is a very first version and has some known bugs but I'll be working to solve all of them and present the final project as well as release the code at Cristalab on-line conferences next 26 November.

If you've some feature request please feel free to post it on the comments and I'll try implmemt it.

I'd like to thank Mathias Kramm for it's great job with swftools, without it's project fdView wouldn't even exist. And Joseba Alonso for it's awesome mouse gestures class.
