Hi Rob,
This is due to a restriction in the swf file format, I run into this
quite frequently as well - normally where there are a lot of company
logos on a page (I'm looking at you Barclays). The only way I can get
around it is to either get the original indesign / quark files and track
down and simplify the vector artwork, or to convert the pdf to a very
hi-res jpeg and use that instead.
Sorry I can't be of more help.

Hi,
Unfortunately I can't use that option as the resulting image quality
isn't good enough when zoomed in. In my application a user can zoom in
to the pdfswf up to 500%.
Cheers,
Rob

Use -s poly2Bitmap to flatten keeping the font layers alive.

Hi,
Who is the best person to contact regarding PDF2SWF issues?
Specifically I've run up against the 'The file is too complex to
render- SWF only supports 65536 shapes at once' problem.
Research suggests this is due to embedded vector artwork but I'd
very much appreciate it if someone could investigate a specific
pdf file and confirm the specific issues so I can communicate
those back to the designer we're using. Unfortunately we cannot
use the suggested workarounds of poly2bitmap or just bitmap as we
need to maintain quality in the swf when it's zoomed in.
Cheers,
Rob
