[flexcoders] Re: Printing Images with printJob.addObject

[pliechty]

You can do printing with dynamic images, you just have to wait until the images 
are loaded before adding them to the printjob.  Listen for the Event.COMPLETE 
event to know when the images are loaded.  I am doing it and it works fine.
