6.5 Publish to Flash Window - Media Tab

The Media tab allows you to configure compression settings for presentation. The lower
quality of images and audio/video objects, the smaller the size of your Flash presentation.
Compression
Use Preset iSpring Pro provides you with 4 present

compression modes that optimize Flash movie
for publishing to the web with low or high
connection speed, publishing to the Local
Network drive or publishing on CD. Also you can
create up to 10 custom compression presets
special for your individual needs.
Page 51
Image compression If you check "Smart compression" mode for

converting your presentation to Flash, all images
will be saved keeping high quality and small
size. Read more about Smart compression in
iSpring blog. "Lossy" compression will convert
and save all embedded images to .jpg format.
"Lossless" compression converts all images in
your presentation with the highest quality.
Audio compression By default iSpring Pro keeps original quality of

audio in presentation. If needed you can set
higher or less bitrate but it will influence output
file size and audio quality.
Video compression By default iSpring Pro keeps original quality of

video in presentation. If needed you can set
higher or less bitrate but it will influence output
file size and video quality.
Flash Multimedia Tuning
Smooth raster images Smoothing usually enhances the quality of raster

images rendering but sometimes can lead to
undesirable results when the Flash movie is
created for Flash Player version 8 or higher. It is
recommended to set this propety to false when
the target Flash player version is 8 or higher
since the rendering quality of Flash Player 8 is
quite good and additional smoothing makes
raster images blurred.
Advanced Smart Art Processing This feature allows getting a better quality of
SmartArt objects and save the animation effects
applied to them. As this option is using
Clipboard, it is recommended not to use
Clipboard during the iSpring conversion process.
Due to technical characteristics some SmartArt
objects may look or play slightly differently. In
this case, the option may be turned off so that
SmartArt object will be saved as raster images
and animation will be lost.
Detach media content
Using these options makes sense if you convert presentation into solid Flash movie.
Flash movies If you check this option, your presentation and

embedded Flash movies will be saved into
Page 52
separate .swf files.
Video clips Check this option if you have large video clips
embedded into your presentation. Each video
file will be converted into separate .flv files and
this will remove the limits of .swf format.
Audio Files In case the audio embedded into your

presentation is large, it is recommended to
enable this option. The audio will be saved into
separate file and your Flash presentation will
load faster.
7 Players
7.1 iSpring Players

iSpring Pro can wrap output presentation into Flash based Player. Current version includes
10 different players, 7 of which are highly customizable. Your Flash presentation can look as
in PowerPoint with a simple Navigation + Marker panel or can be wraped in the Advanced
Player which contains notes, outlines, thumbnails, Pro info and references.

creating unique appearance and keeping handy navigation.
The players were updated with support of system fonts that improves representation of

as easy as you can insert images or audios.

10.2 Insert Flash

Insert Flash Window allows you to insert external Flash (.swf) movies into your PowerPoint

other slide of your presentation.

supported. You can insert only one Flash movie per slide. Please
Note: iSpring doesn#t support Flash files previously converted from PowerPoint with
iSpring.
3. Click the Open button and you will see first frame of Flash movie placed on a slide.
PowerPoint 2007 doesn#t allow embedding Flash movie into PPT presentation due to
security restrictions. It only creates a link to a Flash file. So if you desire to move
PowerPoint presentation to another computer, be sure to copy your Flash file as well.
You will need to create a folder for Flash file with the same name as on an original
computer or insert Flash file once again.
After conversion to a solid Flash file, all inserted Flash resources will be embedded into
your Flash presentation. On the other hand if you have a lot of external Flash files or a
big Flash file inserted in your PPT presentation we recommend storing them in a separate
resource folder (use the Detach Embedded Flash movies option).
