Generate PDF's on the fly

03 November 2008

I read this post from DevGirl about AlivePDF, an AS3 API to save Flash content to PDF. The examples showed how to use a server-side script or using AIR. Hmmm... this could be a nice little introduction into the world of FP10 me thinks. I haven't spend any time looking into the FP10 features but thought this could be fairly quick and easy to do... and it was!

The example shows two textfields. Enter some text in the title and also some in the body. If you're lazy no worries I added some already for you. I used the AlivePDF (0.1.4.6) API which is dead easy to use. Here is the example and the full source. (Flash Player 10 required) Selah.
