cageman Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 is it possible to get the text in a flash object? normal functions dont work for it. Normally such text needs ocr, but is is possible to extract this information? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amokoura Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 My guess is no. If the text is selectable, it could be copied to clipboard. Might require some mouse+keyboard magic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amokoura Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 nope cant be selected:(the text is not in the sourcecode either:(but the text must be stored somewhere right?The text can be anywhere. In database, text file or the flash app itself etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amokoura Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 y is it possible to see which of these ones is the case?Only if you have access to the flash application source, which is almost never possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIMITER Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 You could also use Sothink SWF Catcher & Sothink SWF Decompiler to have access to the source (but it doesn't work 100% on all cases ...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cageman Posted March 6, 2008 Author Share Posted March 6, 2008 (edited) You could also use Sothink SWF Catcher & Sothink SWF Decompiler to have access to the source (but it doesn't work 100% on all cases ...)the problem is the flash file changes everytime so i need to read it in another way.

Uriziel01 Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Hmmm it is really hard but you may try to make screenshot of the text data in flash, and next use some binay (dll function) to recogniese the text on picture. But this is sometimes buggy when the text style is diffrent than normal or it contains some other graphics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
