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

No, it's not possible to view a PDF in Flash without either converting the PDF ahead of time to a flash format, or using an external PDF reader.

It may be possible to port some opensource PDF reader to Flash, maybe using Alchemy, but this will be a long and hard project, not something you could quickly throw together.
