Can iFrames somehow be used as a workaround to play interactive SWF's on an iPad?

Aug 11, 2012 11:04 AM

Is it possible to somehow leverage iFrames to allow an interactive SWF created in Indesign to display on an iPad?   I have created some rather complex interactive SWF's that simply can't be replicated using Digital Publishing or any other solution I can find.  I was curious if there is a way to leverage the iFrame capability as a work-around.  Does anyone have any suggestions? 

 

Cheers!

    Hi Steve,

     

    SWF can't be played on an iPad or other iOS devices. This has noting to do with the DPS but with Apple iOS that simply not allows to play Flash files.

    You have to switch to HTML5 technology to create your Animations. There are several solutions like Adobe Edge, Tumult Hype, ... to create those Animations without coding.

    That's the answer I was expecting unfortunately.  I am aware of Adobe Edge, but I am pretty sure it will not be capable of replicating what I have built within Indesign... I have really taken the interactive aspects of the program to their limits.Can I send you a private message with a URL that will display an example of my work?   I doubt you've seen anything quite like what I've done.  

     

    Cheers,
