Which is best way to create a web Flip Book?

I know this is old, but I am searching for some info myself and am putting this link on a few forums in case others stumble onto the answers here.

Making a flip magazine can be done in InDesign. Using PDFs for the pages in InDesign, export the file as a .swf and then import the swf back into InDesign.  Then save as an interactive PDF.   All the settings and info are in this video: InDesign: Creating interactive PDFs with Page Turn and Flash animations | CSInsider | Design | Adobe TV

When you are using InDesign, you can export the file to single SWF file. If there are 200 pages in the file, the output size is probably being large when there are high resolution images in it.

You can some 3^rd party tools such as the products you’ve mentioned or aXmag pdf to flash converter to get pages created into separate SWF files and load them one by one for online reading which could shorten the loading time when end users are trying to open the online flip book.

and sometimes... viewers might look at a post seeking their own answers... not to answer.

Get stuck paying for it, but this one is actually pretty nice. Good support from them, though obviously free is a better price for some of these. The html edition of it is pretty good. It is flash, but does a great job.

I think this is one of those things where we all have used one or more solution for this and it is one of those necessary evils in the print world. Clients request them, our Heidelbergs hate them, most people think they are tacky.

I apologize for that comment. I was just frustrated. I was unprofessional. I did think that adobe employees contributed but still no reason to flame. Sorry.

I suppose you already tried to export as flash:

File>Export>Save as type>Flash Player (SWF)

Thanks Adobe for not answering my question. I may have bought additional software if you would have told me what is available. 23 views and no replies is sad.
