Have you tried loading the swf inside a MovieClip and then trace the MovieClip to a BitmapData object ? I don't know if the same security restrictions apply to swf files as with image files ...

Anyone know if there's a way to draw the contents of a SWF to a Bitmap/BitmapData object within Flash? I have a SWF that involves lots of complex rendering steps and I want to be export it as a bitmap. The export part should be fine (using a server to actually save the file) if I can figure out how to get it into a BitmapData object so I can call getPixels() on it. Anyone have any ideas?
