Creating PDF

[Sideburnt]

I am wanting to make the most out of the vector graphic quality that you get in Flash, Is it possible to create PDF files in Flash, Usually I would use a programme like indesign or Illustrator, but my company only has licences for Photoshop Elements and Flash MX 2004, And the Elements PDF facility doesnt create them at good enough quality when zoomed in.

Thanks in advance for any help

Flash can't create PDF Files, but PHP can, search PHP.net or even better here is the Introduction:

Introduction

The PDF functions in PHP can create PDF files using the PDFlib library created by Thomas Merz.

The documentation in this section is only meant to be an overview of the available functions in the PDFlib library and should not be considered an exhaustive reference. Please consult the documentation included in the source distribution of PDFlib for the full and detailed explanation of each function here. It provides a very good overview of what PDFlib is capable of doing and contains the most up-to-date documentation of all functions.

All of the functions in PDFlib and the PHP module have identical function names and parameters. You will need to understand some of the basic concepts of PDF and PostScript to efficiently use this extension. All lengths and coordinates are measured in PostScript points. There are generally 72 PostScript points to an inch, but this depends on the output resolution. Please see the PDFlib documentation included with the source distribution of PDFlib for a more thorough explanation of the coordinate system used.

Please note that most of the PDF functions require a pdfdoc as its first parameter. Please see the examples below for more information.

Note: If you're interested in alternative free PDF generators that do not utilize external PDF libraries, see this related FAQ.
