You can now upload SWFs when creating a new proof! Simply upload the SWF as you would any other kind of file, the only difference is in the Settings section at the bottom of the New Proof page - here you should choose whether the SWF is an Application or an Animation.
Animation
- The most common SWF file types are banners and movies. If your SWF file represents a banner or a movie make sure you choose the Animation setting when creating the proof.
- On the proof page the normal play, pause, forward, back, etc. buttons will be available and you will be able to review, approve and share the proof as usual.
Application
- If your SWF is an interactive application like a game or software, then make sure you choose the Application setting when creating the proof.
- On the proof page you will be able to interact with the proof and be able to review, approve and share the proof as normal.
NB: In order for us to provide you with the most capable and up to date tool, we support the latest version of Action Script and Adobe Flash Player. If you are experiencing issues, the route of the problem may be that you are not using the preferred version of ActionScript or Adobe Flash Player. If an older version of these applications is used, ProofHQ will try to convert the SWF file to a newer version which sometimes causes it not to match the original SWF file perfectly (the SWF file may be shown frame by frame ignoring any actions like "Stop", "Play" and "Go to and Stop"). To achieve the best results, we recommend that the swf file is created using ActionScript 3.0 and published to Adobe Flash Player 9 (minimum). If these versions are not used to create the swf file, you'll still be able to use our SWF file function, but we do recommend that you upgrade if possible.
