SWF
(redirected from SWF file)

    Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Medical, Legal, Financial, Wikipedia 0.01 sec.
SWF
(Small Web Format) The file format for playing Flash animation files (Flash movies). The Flash source file, which holds the timelines and multimedia elements, uses the .FLA (Flash Authoring) extension and is published to an .SWF file for playback by the Flash media player.

Originally, SWF meant "ShockWave Flash," which was confusing because Shockwave is a different authoring package that uses the .DCR extension for playback files (see Shockwave). As a result, SWF was renamed "Small Web Format." Stand-alone Flash video files use the .FLV extension (see Flash video). See Flash.
(filename extension)swf - /S W F/ The filename extension for Adobe Shockwave Flash animated vector graphics files, common on the World-Wide Web.

A rarely used alternative expansion is "Small Web Format".

Note: Because the SWF file from URL would be greatly influenced by internet speed, it is strongly recommended to click "Play Movie" to fully play the movie once before capturing.
