if you are adventuresome you could use XML and XSL to transform your content
into a PDF on the server -> which then gets served back to the client.
Good thing about this is that is is free (http://xml.apache.org look for FOP
or Formatting Object Processor) and you can modify the pdf on the fly from
director (by creating the appropriate content XML) and post that to the
server. Which in turn can get "styled" or "transformed" into a PDF.
Possibilities are endless... you could create cool content entry apps that
allow people to make their own PDFs. You can use the same content that is
used for the Director-and-Flash-and-HTML-and-PalmOS site (or portions of...)
for a PDF version that is suitable for printing.
A bad thing (depends...) might be a steep learning curve and you have to
have a server that can support the transformations (not difficult and well
explained at apache.org) .
