swfShrink v0.1


Description:
swfShrink is a Java-based freeware that enables to (re-)compress images of a Flash movie to reduce its file size.

Features in version v0.1:
* manual selection of images to (re-)compress (only 32 bit lossless compressed images)
* manual tuning of the JPG quality for each recompressed image
* direct visualisation of compression loss on each image
* direct calculation of the compression rate for each JPG quality

Planed features for future version :
* recompression of color-paletted images
* recompression of already JPG-compressed images

Using swfShrink is very easy and intuitive :
1. launch swfShrink
2. it will prompt you to choose a Flash movie, select a .swf file
3. the first image is then displayed with its compression rate evaluation for the default JPG quality
4. change the JPG quality and press [Eval] button to get a new evaluation of the compression rate, and see the effect on JPG damages
5. if the result is satisfying, click the [compress] checkbox to decide whether the image should be compressed or not
6. you can navigate through images using [Prev] and [Next] buttons
7. when you are ready with all images, press [Save] button
