Re: Hey Macromedia! Re: FLASH: Printing from Flash

[Helen Triolo]

Matt,


Not to bombard you with stuff, but here is the original post, in case

it's not clear what I meant by the "MM example"--it's the banner ad you

have at the macromedia site as an example on your info page about

printing from Flash.  I couldn't get it to print from either Netscape

4.5 or IE 5.0 from WinNT with Flash 4.0.28.  I downloaded the SDK files

and I *can* get it to print if I run the swf locally, but I published

and uploaded it to my website to test it, and it doesn't run there.


The "HP example" (which prints from IE but not Netscape) referred to is

from your gallery page.


Thanks again for any helpful info,

Helen

This is a fantastic example of the great things flash (and a good

designer) can do!  It has inspired me to figure how to print selected

things from a flash movie (for my database project), so I went to

http://www.macromedia.com/support/flash/player/flashprint/ to find out

more.  But when I click on "print details" in the ad banner example, I

get a "loading tech sheet" message, but nothing ever loads.  Ever.  And

nothing prints.  I have 4.0.28--is there something else I need to do? I

*was* able to print from your page above, Martin, so I know that

printing from flash is possible--I just wonder why I can't get the

Macromedia example to print (and whether it's worth studying their

downloadable source files for an example that's not working...)  Guess

I'll plow through all the other documentation pages anyway...
