Hello,
I need to export to a PDF at 300dpi a movieclip with text, images and graphics, and want to export text and graphics as vectorial types.
 
Is there a combination of adobe products to do this. (as batch jobs, or APIS, SDKS)
 
Actually i´m using AdobeLivePDf to export, but could not export text and graphics in a movieclip, as vectorial.
 
Thanks (excuse my english)
Willy

Movies are by nature a set of raster images. It's near impossible to go from a raster image to a true vector graphic. Unless of course the movie is really a Flash animation, which is vector graphics. If this is the case then you may have a chance. I don't know how, but the possibility is there. I think the best strategy would be to look for tools that export from a SWF frame to a known vector format such as InDesign, Illustrator, or Fireworks. Then convert to PDF from that format.
