SWF Format

Post by PJMiller »

I need to convert a font I have made into .SWF format. There are various online converters which claim to do this but I have yet to find one that actually works.

I could buy Adobe Illustrator but that would be hideously expensive just to convert one font.

Does anyone have any thoughts on how this might be achieved ?

Flash is dead. You should look for some other format like animated GIF or PNG or Video.

What are you trying to achieve?

The font files in the game 'Skyrim' are in .SWF format. I wish to replace one of them with my own version of the font.

I know flash is dead but this game still has lots of resources in .SWF format, including the fonts and if I want to replace one I have to use the format the game is expecting.
