SWF is a proprietary vector graphics file format produced by the Macromedia Flash software. Intended to be small enough for publication on the web, SWF files can contain animations or applets of varying degrees of interactivity and function. The Flash program produces SWF as the compressed and uneditable final product, whereas its uses the .fla format for its editable working files.
The name is not officially an acronym, although it has been attributed as standing for Small Web Format and Shockwave Flash [1]. According to Macromedia, SWF is pronounced "S W F" (with each letter being pronounced individually), but some people prefer to pronounce it as "swiff."
Flash is currently the most ubiquitous and dominant format for displaying animated vector graphics on the web, far exceeding the open standard SVG format, which has met with problems over competing implementations of the W3C standard. SWF is also sometimes used for creating animated display graphics and menus for DVD movies, and television commercials.

".swf" does not actually stand for anything, though it has falsely been attributed to mean "Small Web Format" or "Shockwave Flash". It is properly pronounced as "S.W.F.", though some pronounce it as "swiff".
