How to download SWF files?



Good morning, guys! How is everything going?

I have introduced how to download Youtube videos and then convert them to the formats that your other portable devices support with the help of Leawo Youtube Download and Leawo FLV Converter previously.

Today, we are going to talk about how to download SWF files.

First question: what is SWF file?

The file format SWF (originally standing for "Shockwave Flash", later changed to "Small Web Format" by Macromedia when the company chose to have the phrase "Shockwave" only refer to Director, pronounced swiff) a partially open repository for multimedia and especially for vector graphics, originated with FutureWave Software and has come under the control of Adobe. Intended to be small enough for publication on the web, SWF files can contain animations or applets of varying degrees of interactivity and function.

SWF currently functions as the dominant format for displaying "animated" vector graphics on the Web, far exceeding the use of the W3C open-standardSVG, which has met with problems over competing implementations.
SWF files can be generated from within several Adobe products: Flash, Flex Builder (an IDE), as well as through MXMLC, a command line application compiler which is part of the freely available Flex SDK. Other than Adobe products, SWFs can be built with open source Motion-Twin ActionScript 2 Compiler (MTASC) and the proprietary SWiSH Max2.

Second question: where can we find SWF files?

You can easily find SWF files on any website as the dominant format for displaying “animated” vector graphics. Such as the banners and advertisements
