I have some .swf files (pdf looking files, not movies/animations, just plain static documents with pictures) that requires adobe flash player to view, after going to adobe's page to download it, i can only view these file with Internet explorer...one at a time, and thats extremely tedious. (its about 1000 files, an entire book!!)
I install Flash movie player but the program freezes all the time, and show the text in very small fonts, forcing me to zoom in anytime i click next. (plus most of the time clicking next does not work at all)
Simply changing the files extension from .swf to .jpg/.doc files did not work.
So my question to all is this....
Does anyone know a better program (hopefully freeware) to view these files or a program that can convert from .swf to .pdf or word document OR any other way to handle these files??
Thanks.

THANKS -
Thanks alot Leaftyre,
For 1000 plus files, this will take forever....but i will try to do about 50 per day and hopefully i will finish oneday.
But for the meantime, does anyone has an alternative pls?? -
Leaftye...
Thanks again. I have more questions
-Could you please show me where and how to use a Macro to automate this process?/
-After doing exactly what you said, I have 80 pdf (that's how much i have been able to do..had to go to class and get ready for Chem exams too). How do i create 1 big pdf files from many pdf's, such that when i open the file it will show 1 page numbering 1-80??? Hope you understand.
Thanks ALOT. -
Leaftye, I'm sorry but i cant find the "Append jobs" option any where on the Cutepdf settings. Could tell me where to find it?? That will be very very helpful.

Thanks. -
Leaftye, I found a free program (Primopdf)that has the append option and many other nice options, you should give it a try. Now all the files are added up to make 1 big file just as i wanted. Primopdf is slow and sometimes seems to "not responding" with converting the file.
I started this thread hoping to find a program that can easily convert from .swf to .pdf easily, just like unziping a file. But i've learnt that this is no easy task and i have to do it the hard way but still, i've learned something.
Thanks, Leaftye.
