Also, for some of you new to converting PDF to Flash, who may wonder why it's so quick to turn a Word doc into a PDF but so long (relative) to turn that PDF into Flash. The reasoning is that the process is much more complex and resource intensive than creating a PDF, which has really become almost like a virtual print driver. Stick with it-this is good stuff!

con't. before you receive your conversion is complete confirmation. The longest I've waited on box.net, which has to transmit the PDF to a third party keep in mind, is 2 1/2 mins top for a graphics heavy, feature rich PDF. Quality was near identical to original PDF.

@Paula Johnston & JM Kester: Actually, the conversion here is not taking much more time than a normal PDF->Flash conversion. The only difference here is, you're seeing the conversion happen on the front end - you see a progress bar and everything. Many sites which do similar sorts of file conversion often do it on the backend, where you do not see a progress bar and they just tell you they will notify you when the conversion is done. Anyone ever use Zamzar? sometimes its 20-30 minutes bef

con't says is deployed on 80% of modern browsers. The Flash PDF is also embeddable, making it easy for a webpage viewer to see; the Adobe plugin is not not embeddable and actually causes the PDF itself to open a whole other piece of software to read it. Bad use of resources. If a viewer likes the PDF, usually they can then download it to keep.

@Thomas Carpenter: This service eliminates the need to have to download the PDF to view it's contents to determine if its a valuable resource; some people have Adobe PDF Reader plugin installed in their browsers and it works ok if you seem to have a pretty solid up to date powerful system, but for other users the plugin to read PDFs on a webpage w/o donwload is messy. It hasn't seemed to work right on my Mac since OS 10.4. This service converts the PDF to Flash for the Flash plugin, which Adobe

I dont get it. Why not just open the pdf? This is a software program destined for the dust bin of history.
