DRAFT NOTES: still figuring things out

Flowpaper displays PDFs that have been converted to Flash (SWF) or html/html5.

  • Windows and OS X desktop app creates various websites from a PDF, including a Java war file.
    • The Java version war, does appear to convert uploaded PDFs to SWF.
      • Spaces in file names need to be converted/removed before pdf2swf or java modified to quote output to command line calls
      • Upload page does not refresh automatically (click Configuration and cancel)
        • clicking on file in Available Documents starts conversion process.
  • Unix - Flowpaper recommends conversion of PDFs to Flash using SWFTools there are many others free and commercial.
  • Flexpaper classic is the tool that allows annotations.
    • Annotations are separate from document and APIs need to be called to save and restore annotations.
  • FlowPaper_Annotations_Trial has Annotation code and is very similar to FlexPaper in the Java war (mentioned above)
  • Flexpaper github (now Flowpaper) has several repositories and forks.
    • Flexpaper on github displays SWFs, the repository description says it displays PDFs I haven't seen this and there are no PDF files in the examples or demos, just SWFs
  • Flexpaper-desktop-publisher is a Google code Archive of Downloads of tools in Flexpaper github above.
  • Other formats we wish to support it appears we will have to convert to PDF (using the myriad of tools available) and then to SWF.
  • Remove password logic from admin/index.jsp (leave session.setAttribute("FLOWPAPER_AUTH", "1"); )
  • Annotations (Marks) need to be saved and retrieved.  https://flowpaper.com/online-annotations-pdf-viewer-api/
