AMF message structure?

Adobe's documentation for the AMF format does not seem to actually specify the structure of an entire AMF message. It only specifies the format of individual data types. I've read the damn thing five times and either I'm just totally missing what an actual AMF message should contain, or it's not there. Does anyone know of any document...

Getting website data into Adobe InDesign

I'd like our magazine team to be able to download website data in a file that Adobe InDesign can read. They can then import/open the file, make a few tweaks, and cut out a vast deal of repetitive manual labour (they currently use copy&paste for a few hours). After a brief Google I note that v2 of InDesign can import/export XML so perhap...

Stored Procedure Usage in Adobe LiveCycle ES

We have a number of stored procedures in production that we would like to use with LC. I reviewed the JDBC types and I don't see any way to get LC to accept the results of a call to a stored procedure, the stored procedure service only has an output for the number of rows affected.

We have a bunch of documents in our organization that were inadvertently saved as Adobe PDF packages (also known as PDF 1.7 "collections"). We would like to convert these to normal PDFs (most of these "packages" contain one bog-standard pdf file), but given the number of files, it's not possible manually.

How do I install an older version of Flash Player?

When I try to install an older build of Adobe Flash Player to test a SWF I'm developing, the installer tells me I cannot complete installation because a newer version of Flash Player is available. I need to install the older plugin because my users have reported that it exhibits different behavior than what I'm seeing with the latest upd...

How to tell when the main swf gets fully loaded?

Hi, as I learned the hard way, Flash streams your .swf, that is, it can start playing back the file even if only the first couple of frames are loaded. Normally, when loading an external .swf you would just register a handler to the COMPLETE event of the Loader or URLLoader class and that would be it. Example (exception handling, etc....

[Flex] Why does a starting + (plus sign) not show up in a combo box of data grid?

I use several controls with combo boxes and data grids, which I fill using a HTTPService which returns some XML. However in the XML there are some telephone numbers starting with a plus sign (ie. +123456). However in the combo boxes and the data grids the plus sign doesn't show (so it would display as 12345646). It doesn't matter if I u...

Adobe Acrobat is repeating a form for no apparent reason

Heres a simple form to help illustrate the issue. This is not the complete code for a form since it was way too long (or bloated rather) to post. So if you open Adobe LiveCycle and create a blank document, insert the following as the main content. Then save it as a pdf. If you open the pdf and save it you'll see the subform went from sh...

Adobe made a deal with Google to improve SEO on flash. Anything about Silverlight?

Adobe made a deal with Google so that google engine reads SWF contents for SEO. The whole thing has to do with indexing some static swf content and not crawling it any further, but that's at least something. Example Does anybody know if similar efforts were/will be made for Silverlight? At least will Bing support reading Silverlight cont...
