Flash Player plays Flash content in the same way as it appears in a web browser or an ActiveX host application. Flash player is installed with the Flash application. When you double-click Flash content, the operating system starts Flash Player, which then plays the SWF file. Use the player to make Flash content viewable for users who aren’t using a web browser or an ActiveX host application.

To control Flash content in Flash Player, use menu commands and the fscommand() function. For more information, see Sending messages to and from Flash Player in Learning ActionScript 2.0 in Adobe Flash.

Use the Flash Player context menu to print Flash content frames.
