Re: [Swftools-common] PDF2SWF conversion hangs when called by simple java program ..

[Farhad Seyedmehdi]

Hi

I already report the problem at http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/swftools-common/2009-09/msg00096.html
still no solution. The workaround is to make scheduler with time-out then process will be killed after time-out in this case you need to catch it and execute it with poly2bitmap then you got swf it is a bit ugly swf but it works keep in mind that you need to split your pdf to single pages and execute it for all pages one by one.

I am still waiting for solution.

Regards
Farhad

That's not true at all, we call pdf2swf from java without any problems (we
converted about 800 documents with > 60.000 Pages) without ANY problems. All
you need to do is read stdout AND stderr of the called program.

I have attached a samnple Java-Class which does that.

Andy

Try running pdf2swf with the -vvvv option and determine the
last log statement before it hangs.

These "calling from Java" issues have come up before, but nobody
seems to have found a definite solution.
