Re: SWF file not accepted? Ingraye 7/11/12 7:19 AM SWF Version 11 = 10.2 Flash Player version.   10.2 isn't supported by DFP yet.  When you save Flash files, you usually save it to use a particular Flash Player version.  Each Flash Player version supports different features with newer versions suppor
