1 Comment on How to Extract Flash SWF from Word or Excel

Its a very common sight when we get mails sent to us with flash files embedded in it! Sometimes its a Greeting Card, a funny game or an Interesting puzzle that keeps us hooked on!

Why embed in MS Office Word/Excel?
Since most of the Office’s and Personal Desktops have MS Office installed, Word and Excel act as a good container to run or play these flash (SWF a.k.a Shockwave Flash) files.

Now comes the next part, where you like the file, and want to extract it, to either save it to your desktop as flash file, or upload it your site (Free Flash Games) when the file is not under copyright policy, or various other reasons!

No Comments on How to create PDF with Microsoft Office 2007 or Open Office

We always try to figure out various ways of how to create our doc’s as PDF. We first try to google some keywords, and try to download all possible crap softwares, which end not even converting, but asking for monetary registration.

We otherwise try for online converters, where we sometimes end up filling long registration forms, sometimes, not even knowing where our confidential data will saved in their servers, will it be misplaced or misused.

Too much of chaos, too much of tension, and the best part is we always forget the simple solution that already sometimes exists in our systems.
