Hello,

This is my first post on that forum. I'm not into Flash Media Sever but since I can't find such kind of information i'm trying to post my question here. Sorry if i'm not in the right place (maybe someone can point me on the right direction).

Here's the question:

Nowdays there are some applications which basically covert a PDF into an SWF and let you turn the page as you are reading a real magazine. These applications work in the following way:

The PDF is uploded into a directory -> some kind of application (and here's my question, is that Flash media server??) coverts them into the final SWF -> The SWF link is sent back to the customer.

Now i've noticed that all that kind of application work in this way. Is Flash Media Sever the application that do that job?

Examples can be found at: www.smartpaper.info / http://myvirtualpaper.com

Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks,

Best,
M

    nope, PDF flip page is not a flash media server. if you want put your pdf flip page into online server, i recommend you 3dpageflip, you can use it to convert pdf to flip book and save flipbook on computer or upload online as you like.

    FlashPaper 2 is the tool to do that I think.
