RE: [Swftools-common] PDF2SWF creates Dark Images in SWF

[Heikki Pelkkikangas]

Hello,

 

The images in the pdf are in CMYK colorspace. You should first convert them to RGB. The best way to do this is to create the pdf's again from the original source and change the colorspace from CMYK to RGB. You can also do this with some Acrobat add-ons such as PitStop Professional.

 

Sincerely,

Heikki Pelkkikangas

Also I noticed this, something changed in the image format in the version I made.

Maybe this will be of use to Matthias.

 

1. original image info in 15.pdf that coverts dark:

 

VERBOSE drawImage 110x333, colorMap no maskColors, inline=0
VERBOSE colorMap pixcomps:4 bits:8 mode:4

 

VERBOSE drawImage 367x511, colorMap no maskColors, inline=0
VERBOSE colorMap pixcomps:4 bits:8 mode:4

 

VERBOSE drawImage 100x197, colorMap no maskColors, inline=0
VERBOSE colorMap pixcomps:4 bits:8 mode:4

 

2. image info from 15b.pdf created with AdobePDF Printer that coverted properly:

 

VERBOSE drawImage 110x333, colorMap no maskColors, inline=0
VERBOSE colorMap pixcomps:3 bits:8 mode:6
VERBOSE drawImage 367x511, colorMap no maskColors, inline=0
VERBOSE colorMap pixcomps:3 bits:8 mode:6

 

VERBOSE drawImage 100x197, colorMap no maskColors, inline=0
VERBOSE colorMap pixcomps:3 bits:8 mode:6
