Hey mate, Think the example you mentioned
was mine. I’ve re-uploaded it for you! And I’ve copied the email
discussion below. The new link is: http://www.multimediaresourceaustralia.com/~temp/searchTextSample.zip Hope this helps! Cheers, Mark.
MMR, Suite 409, 434 St. Kilda Road, Melbourne, 3004 Hey Jan, I've uploaded a sample to : http://www.multimediaresourceaustralia.com/~temp/searchTextSample.zip It contains my working PDF file, outputted SWF file, and
a flash8 (and Flash CS3) FLA which loads the SWF and has the Search Text button
with the hltext function on it. There are some instructions in the .txt file. Hope this helps! mark lowe senior multimedia developer multimedia resource australia t: +61 3 9602 4750 f: +61 3 9606 0408 e: w: level 2, 351 elizabeth st, melbourne vic 3000 [ courier

you should see a list of DEFINETEXT statements and the corresponding text. Due
to a font conflict I was seeing DEFINETEXT followed by jumbled up text on my
first pdf. > 4. Test your outputted swf with: swfstrings
filename.swf, you should see your text and a LOT of ???????s. Again, I had

[mailto:address@hidden On Behalf Of Dmitry
K Valberg Hello! I know this has been discussed before, but the only
sample/example showing how to do search in SWF files produced by PDF2SWF is no
longer offline. So I was wondering if there is an simple example on how I can
add search functionality to my SWF files? I have been trying my luck with Flex 3 and SWFLoader, sadly
even example posted on Adobe Flex 3 reference manual doesn’t work. http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/Working_with_Text_18.html Tried both Flex 3, Flash 9 with all kinds of textfields and
types. Thank you, Dmitry K Valberg Norway, A-Pressen | ||||||||||||
