Hi Lucas and all... (I am new to the group and thought I would take a stab at 
your ?)

Re:  convert PDF to pages.

Not sure how to approach this inside a FLEX/AS3 app -- but I do know how you 
can do it offline using ImageMagik

If interested in this approach, Install Imagemagik for your platform then issue 
a convert command  similar to the one below (like this depending on your 
general needs),

Example: 

   Home:\ or   C:\  or ...     convert.exe c:\xampp\htdocs\bookdrop\test.pdf 
-units PixelsPerInch -colorspace RGB -density 900x900 -quality 90 
c:\xampp\htdocs\assets\%%d.jpg

Will pick apart a PDF and make test00.jpg, text01.jpg etc etc

All for free...  I presume convert has a switch of some sort to go from PDF -> 
single-image if that's what you need/want.

Obviously not flex/air related, but depending on your environment, perhaps you 
can logically kick off some sort of System("convert.exe . . . ") let the 
outside process perform what you need, and read in the IMG using something like 
StageWebView(), upon a completionEvent of some sort.

Just a thought   Cheers //GH

Subject: use flex to create picture (JPG or PNG) files from a PDF?

Hi, is there a way to use flex to open a PDF file and save its contents (all 
pages) as picture files? I was looking for some solutions like opening the PDF 
with the HTMLLoader class or use some libraries like alivepdf but didn't get 
good results...
