Implementing a new renderer is generally not a particularly difficult task. It requires that you know a lot about the format you're writing. I think writing an SWF renderer is quite feasible although maybe not quite mainstream. Depending on how much you want to implement (SVG support, yes or no) it will take you about 2 to 4 weeks to achieve something usable. It's probably best to copy an existing renderer (preferrably PDF or PS) and rewrite it for the new format. If you decide to do this you're welcome to throw questions our way. Make use of the various existing renderers for examples.
