Alperia Design is always determined to use only the newest tools and embrace the most up-to-date technologies to deliver cutting-edge graphics and web applications. 3D, physics and Augmented Reality can be combined with user interaction and data integration to change the way that ideas are presented or perform work processes. ActionScript as a powerful tool for this is key.
Since ActionScript became an ECMA specification scripting language with its third iteration bolted into Flash, it has been pressed into service with FlashBuilder 4, where it is used to primarily build data-driven applications. Alperia Design has long recognised the importance of powerful scripting in web applications. Everything has come full circle now where a Flash front-end can communicate with XML, or a database through PHP. |

Alperia Design brings technology which creates automatically generated PDFs from the server straight to your client's web browser. PDFs are very useful for people who need to generate read-only, platform independent documents containing text, lists, tables and images; or who want to perform specific manipulations on existing PDF documents.With these tools you can
- serve a PDF to a browser
- generate dynamic documents from XML files or databases
- manipulate the structure of PDFs
- digitally sign PDFs
- automate the filling-out of PDF forms
There is a video tutorial on how to produce a very simple example PDF here |

The team say that the focus this time around is being as Open Source and transparent as possible. In fact, even though they are in the initial planning and architecture stages, everyone is welcome to follow the progress of the project.
The whole project can be seen at every stage therefore here. |

Yes, it takes me back although I haven't been using Flash for quite that long. My first encounter with the product came with a free trial of Flash 3 just prior to the release of version 4 in 1999. I had some experience with Director. Version 6 was just shipping and none of us where I worked quite understood why Macromedia needed this product at all when it was sporting Director and Authorware in its lineup. Anyway, it worked in vector images and we liked that with bandwidth being what it was back then. Besides, it had gotoAndPlay and nextFrame which I couldn't find in a gif. Currently I don't know anyone who uses Director and haven't for some years now. |
