Lesson 10. Creating Printable Movies

I l @ ve RuBoard

You can use Flash's printing capabilities to allow users to print parts of your Flash site. For the ZooMX Web site, users might want to print a copy of the map so they'll know just where to go when they arrive at the zoo. Using the print action, you can easily give your site's visitors this capability.

You can use ActionScript to print portions of your Flash movie.
