Dear All, I have this project which I would 'prefer' to do in flash for both Mac and PC. It's a standalone CD projector where users can view images, word docs and pdfs - I would also like them to have the option of saving these files to disk. I know this issue has been covered before but cannot find the specific information available. Does anyone know the .as for this or work arounds (ie putting Flash in Director). Would greatly appreciate any info someone may have on the subject. Please be as clear as possible so that I dont hassle you for more info.
Thanks

SWF Studio (www.northcode.com) offers a solution for the PC but not for the MAC. There are no third party MAC projector tools so your only options are to (i) use AppleScript (ii) find a MAC developer to help you build the tools you need.
Here are some examples you can check out that solve various view and copy problems using SWF Studio. The methods will work with any file type but I've used PDF in most cases for the examples.
Open PDF file with check for PDF viewer

Check file extension to see if it's supported and report the application (and version) that will handle it

Copy a file from a CD to the users machine using the Windows File Save dialog to select the save location

Feel free to "hassle" me for information any time. SWF Studio is my product but I'm just full of useless information about projectors, stand-alone apps, Windows, etc.
