There's FlashPaper, but I'm not sure how well that will integrate with your current workflow (you didn't say if you have occasional PDFs to convert, or if it needs to be an automated, fairly often process)

I've been having trouble with the conversion of PDFs to SWFs. If the PDFs are created in InDesign, gradients do not get converted properly using the PDF2SWF utility (http://www.swftools.org). In Quark however, the conversion works without problems. I understand that the reason for this, is that InDesign creates 'true' gradients, whereas Quark effectively fakes them. It looks as though PDF2SWF currently cannot handle the 'true' gradients effectively. My company is moving to 100% use of InDesign and since we have a need to regenerate the pages as SWFs, this is going to be a big headache. One work-around that I know will work, is to rasterize the gradients. I'd like to avoid this proceedure if I can, though, because its a lot of extra work. Does anyone have any ideas about this? Is there another tool other than PDF2SWF that can handle such conversions, without altering the layout? Or are there techniques in InDesign that I could use? Any ideas would be appreciated, Thanks, M. _________________________________________________________________ Windows Live™ Messenger has arrived.
