True, "no such file or directory" but "pdf2swf=/usr/local/bin/pdf2swf" is set up in the context.properties file and if I simply do a

Code: Select all

/usr/local/bin/pdf2swf -T 10 1.0.pdf -o 1.0-preview.swf

on the command-line from within the proper repository directory, Flexpaper goes ahead and shows the file all fine. For whatever reason (would need more debugging info about the actual conversion process myself) the process to convert that file itself fails miserably - it's not about the actual presentation.

Any help!?

Seems that you don't have all the external command configured.
Open your context.properties file and check the configuration of the following parameters:

command.convert=convert
command.pdf2swf=pdf2swf
command.gs=gs
