The simplest way, is to use one of the pre-compiled viewers, which you'll find
in the 'swfs' directory of the swftools distribution, e.g.  simple-viewer.swf,
and rfxview.swf.

Copy one or both to the directory containing your rendered pdf, then use 
swfcombine
to mash them together:

   swfcombine -o completed.swf simple-viewer.swf viewport=yourrenderedswf.swf

   swfcombine -o completed.swf rfxview.swf viewport=yourrenderedswf.swf

The source code of those two viewers is also in the swfs directory, so you can 
tweak
them to you heart's content.

Or are you trying to do this whole thing the harder way ( in Python )?!  ;o) 

HTH.

Regards,



Chris
