This, in itself, let all the air out of AIR for me.
When I saw how AIR could do such a great job of fusing SWF and HTML,
I guess I thought it would have similar capability with PDF. Instead
it seems more like PDF is bolted on to the side. It is always on top,
uses the Reader controls, and has very limited connectivity to the
rest of the app.
Acrobat remains one of the most important file formats, with the
least integration functionality or interactive design tools. Ever try
making an interactive PDF in Acrobat pro, or that LiveCycle thing?
