Problem I noticed during a recent project was to get Flash object over another. So I set the topmost Flash object as transparent, but still the undermost Flash object was showing over it. After some searching from internet I found out that both of them have to be set as transparent to get that working. You can do it in two ways. For beginners it can be easier to select transparent background setting in Flash program and publish both Flash and html file. After that you can copy the code from html file and put it on to the html file where your layout is. Or if you are more advanced user just add wmode=”transparent” to your embed tag.

This Tuesday I was in another Adobe seminar. It took place in Lauttasaari, Helsinki. It lasted two and a half hours. Like the title says, it was all about the new version of Acrobat. The main point in the seminar was get to know the product family of Acrobat and the potential of PDF.

Subjects were Flash tool, PDF Portfolio, saving web pages to PDF, reduction, comparing documents, Form wizard, commenting, Presenter and 3D Reviewer. PDF Portfolio seemed like a great new feature. Also we review PDF standards, OCR and Preflight very shortly. I was already familiar with Preflight from school. New service called Acrobat.com was also presented. I think that could be useful tool for me and my clients.

Check Acrobat.com from here! It’s free and all you have to do is register yourself.
