What I usually do is to declare an iIteration:int = 0 variable and an iEndIndex:int = number of iterations instance vars.
Then I call a control function, which checks to see if the iIteration is less than the iEndIndex, and if so, it calls the main work function. The main work function does its stuff, increments the iIteration var, then uses callLater to call the control function.

I think callLater() is going to work for me, but I have another question: To create my pages, I loop through an array of Room objects. For each Room, I set it to be the currentRoom, which tells the view to display that Room's information. I figure I can do this (pseudocode): for (var i:uint = 0; i < rooms.length; i++) { model.currentRoom = rooms[i]; callLater( makePageFromRoom() ); } I figure this should tell the view to update itself, and then the callLater() should create the PDF page after the view has finished updating. But how do I loop through the rooms? Should I do an enterFrame event listener, and in every frame, set the currentRoom to the new room and do a new callLater()? Thanks, OK DAH
