Hi,
I would say that "you cannot" may not be 100% correct. You probably
could with AS3 as you can load anything in Binary format and manipulate
the file as you see fit. It just probably has not been done yet...
You could look at Server Side code to deal with your PDF and turn it
into an image to load in. There are a few things around that will
generate images from PDF's, etc.
Starting here would be a good bet:

You cannot load a PDF into Flash. You must have misread any article

Hiya, does anyone know the best way to get a PDF into my SWF as a

scalable moveiclip?I've done a bit of research on this but most
articles I
find are a few years old.
I would like the user to be able to upload a pdf then view it in the
flash
application and move it about, scale and rotate it. I've come across
Alive
PDF which seems to let you download a PDF from a flash app but I
would like
to do this the other way around, in AS2 or AS3.
Any suggestions / advice gratefully received :)
Thanks
Ali
