Open pdf in flash player 10

Question

I need to open a PDF in flash player 10. The swf will not be running in a browser and there will not be an adobe reader program on the system. I need to know if its possible

Answer 1

There an other alternative, read PDF bytes and render it with AS3. Few libs already exist (on http://code.google.com):

• purepdf (with org.purepdf.pdf.PdfReader)
• as3-pdfreader (with org.pdfbox.pdfparser.PDFParser)

These PDF parsers don't support all avaiable PDF format's functionalities and I think you can't handle it with the same easiness of AIR integrated PDF reader (througt flash.html.HTMLLoader).
