I gave it a try but unfortunately I get only a black page with every one of my swf files. > The only way to achieve conversion back with swftools ( feel free to > correct me someone ), is to export your swf to an image with swfrender, > then recreate the pdf from he image with one of the many tools that > are out there. Unfortunately, this method also blows out of the water > the retention of any swf elements you are wishing to keep. I have used gfx2gfx as suggested here, but as mentioned in this thread text becomes shapes in the output. That causes the file to be 2-10x as big as the original.
