HOW TO CREATE ADOBE SHOCKWAVE (.swf) FILE USING MICROSOFT POWER-POINT AND TOTAL VIDEO CONVERTER

I was creating a website and I need software that can create Adobe Shockwave file for me, unfortunately all the software I came accross that are used in creating the swf file are commercial. So I found a clever way that I can use to create the (.swf) file using Microsoft Power-Point and Total Video Converter. You should also know that my version of Microsoft Office is 2010.

Below are the steps:-

1. Open Power-Point and create a slideshow of some few slides, may be 3, 4 or 5 slides.

2. Press CTRL+S or follow whatever procedure you are using when saving a document in Power-Point.

3. When The SAVE Dialog box appears, give your file a name. Below where you type the name is a Select Box, click on it and select Windows Media Video and then click Save to save your file. 

4. You have just created a Video File. Now open Total Video Converter.

5. Import the video file you just create. Normally, when you import a file in Total Video Converter a dialog box will appear that will enable you to select the type of the file format you want to convert your imported file. Now select SWF in the video file section. Look at the image below. 

You have now created your SWF file; you can use it as slideshows on your websites instead of using the hard way of creating slideshow with JavaScript.
