I want to create a dynamic text box that loads text and photos.. I have a PDF file that I want to load. I would like to keep the same layout in the movie as it is in the PDF.
Does anyone know how this can be done easily.

Flash can't load in a PDF directly. The easiest thing to do would be to create the contents of the PDF in a movieclip and then use the scroll pane component to scroll it. You could also look into using Flash Paper.
I figured you couldn't put a pdf in flash.. But if I format the text as html that should work right??
I was thinking of using Dreamweaver to create the layout and copy the html code into a text file, then load that into my textbox.. Do you think that would work??
thanks
Flash can read html but only to a certain extent. It only recognizes certain tags and I dont think that <img src= is one of the recognized ones.
