How to Make SWF Files

SWF files are built into Adobe Flash, which is a design program used to create animated films. These files are made in any Adobe Flash Player environment, which you can download or buy from Adobe. To build SWF files from a movie, you will need special software that converts the movie into SWF. You must purchase these software programs individually.
