pdf within flash/flex alternative to flexpaper?

Does any one have any recommendations for pulling in pdf files into flash without allowing the user to be able to download the original pdf, an alternative to FlexPaper?  Anad this is within the browser, not in AIR.

Thanks all; will check out the suggestion - was already looking at pdf2swf ie swftools.  Think that might be the best option as it'll stay vector and zoomable...

Or try ImageMagick (server-side) to convert the PDF to a series of images.

Take a look to the open source tool pdf2swf. It is a server side tool that you can instantiate from ur web app.

Hi,

you can convert the pdf via openoffice to swf and show this swf in flex.
