# Ruby on Rails 3 Paperclip pdf to swf Processor #

This gem is Paperclip processor, utilizing swftools in order to convert uploaded pdf to swf.

## Requirements ##

* [Paperclip][0] ~> 2.4
* [SwfTools][2]

For older versions of paperclip (2.3 and below), please use v0.0.4 of this gem.
## Installation ##

This gem is written and tested on Ruby on Rails 3 only. However, I see no reason why it should not work on earlier versions, as long as Paperclip is functional.

In order to install it, add

gem 'pdf_to_swf-paperclip-processor'
    
to your Gemfile and run

bundle install
   
in your console. Bundler should take care of all the rest.

## SwfTools Instalation ##

Install [swftools][2] from source or using your favorite package manager. On OS X, the easiest way to do it is by using [Homebrew][3].

brew install swftools
    
Various Linux distributions should use similar methods with their respected package managers.

If you are using Windows, you are in luck (this time), swftools also has a Windows binary.

## Using Processor ##

Use it as you would any other Paperclip processor. In your model:

class Document < ActiveRecord::Base
      
      has_attached_file :pdf,
                    :styles => {
                       :swf => { 
                         :params => "-z -j 100 -qq -G",
                         :format => "swf" }
                      },
                      :processors => [:pdf_to_swf]
      
    end

which will convert your pdf document into swf , and keep both files (.swf and .pdf) on the server
