There are several ways to convert PDF files. After converting the file, just import it and define it as a the starting file. If you need multiple PDF files to distribute, use the menu generator to select the files within a menu.
We recommend using pdf2swf which offers a lot of functionality and is free. It also offers a batch conversion of pdf files, so you can convert all files in a directory and subdirectory into a batch process. The navigation bar to browse the PDF file is provided with the Advanced Menu.

Download a sample - the Multimedia Protector Tutorial with over 200 pages and links inside the PDF document - converted with swftools and using the Advanced Menu - Click here to download and unzip the file to a folder. Start mp-pdf.exe.
Using a Printer Driver
This option allows printing the secure file, but links within the PDF file will be lost. It adds a nice navigation bar. The user can select and copy text but the format is lost.
For details using a printer driver see converting Office Documents. The printer does not support hyperlinks. If you need hyperlinks, use the PDF Conversion tool instead.
Not all options of a PDF file are supported. The converted version is like an image of the PDF file. It does not support filling out forms or any other active content including bookmarks.
