Thanks for that Matthias, but I'm a little confused as to what you mean by hardcoding the real file dimensions?
My viewer Flash app uses an XML file to load in swfs to a page flip component - the XML defines the pages at 900x1273. But when it loads this swf in, the page is scaled down to fit into the 900x1273 viewer size. Is there no way of clipping/masking the elements outside the 900x1273 boundaries?

Unfortunately not- Flash player will always report a wrong bounding box for files like these. Your safest bet is to hardcode the real file dimensions somewhere (in the viewer or in some xml file).
