CF's PDFs can use Acrobat v5 (maybe even v4) which is from the year 2000.
Flashpaper requires Flash player v6 which is from 2002. So for deep
penetration into corporates who often dont update their desktops for years
and years, PDF is best. Also the print options from Flash are the same as
your browsers - Acrobat gives a few extra options and users can save it to
disk very easily.

was happy to try and do it online if need be !
