Export content to SWF
The SWF file format is a vector-based graphics file format for scalable, compact graphics for the web. When you export
an InDesign document to a SWF file, the SWF file is ready for playback in a Flash Player. If you want to edit the
exported file in Flash Professional, export using XFL instead of SWF.
For a video and instructions on exporting to SWF, see
www.adobe.com/designcenter/indesign/articles/lrvid4030_id.html .
To view a sample SWF file and see tips on exporting to SWF, see Exporting Interactive Documents to SWF .
1 Set up your document for exporting to SWF. For example, you may want to add navigation buttons and page
transitions. See “ Create interactive SWF (Flash) files for the web ” on page 518.
2 Choose File > Export.
3 Specify a location and a filename.
4 For Save As Type (Windows) or Format (Mac OS), choose SWF, and click Save.
5 In the Export SWF dialog box, specify the following options, and then click OK.
Size (pixels) Specify whether the SWF file is scaled by a percentage, fit to a monitor size you specify, or sized
according to the width and height you specify.
Pages Indicate whether all pages in the document are included, or specify a page range, such as 1-7, 9 to print pages
1 through 7 and 9. See “ Specifying pages to print ” on page 586.
Spreads If this option is selected, each spread is treated as a single clip in the SWF file, regardless of how many
pages appear in each spread. If this option is not selected, each page acts as a separate clip, like its own slide in a
slideshow.
Rasterize Pages This option converts all InDesign page items to bitmap. Selecting this option results in a larger
SWF file, and page items may appear jagged when zoomed in on.
Generate HTML File Select this option to generate an HTML page that plays back the SWF file. This option is
especially useful for quickly previewing the SWF file in your web browser.
View SWF After Exporting Select this option to play back the SWF file in your default web browser. This option is
available only if you generate an HTML file.
Text Specify how InDesign text is output. Choose InDesign Text To Flash Text to output searchable text that results
in the smallest file size. Choose InDesign Text To Vector Paths to output the text as a series of smooth straight lines,
