I was searching for this forever on the web. Not only was I quite angry that I couldn’t find a simple straight forward chunk of code, I was stuck without my book on hand. Grrrr.
cetola.net
No, it's pronounced "Fronkensteen."
Can I print an HTMLLoader (pdf) in Adobe Air?
One answer I have found in order to solve this problem is called Cross-scripting PDF content. The idea is that a PDF can have embedded JavaScript, which can be called from the JavaScript within the HTML page “housing” said PDF (object tag only, no embed). Details »

Jim Reekes on why engineers are so very lucky to be doing what they are for a living.
Stackoverflow is a good thing.
I’ve recently starting seriously look at Stackoverflow as a community. It’s actually quite fun posting questions and the list of answers are amazing.

CSS in Flex
Ex-squeeze me? Did I just forget how to code simple CSS?
No. You haven’t. If you’ve landed here and can’t figure out why CSS is playing strange with Flex or why your dashed class names are just being ignored, you might want to read the CSS section of a Flex book.
Or, if you’re like me, just grunt angrily, google, and replace your dashes.
This F*CSS library seems pretty cool as well. Certainly worth checking out.
Flex Style Explorer
I’ve found this style explorer to be quite useful in mocking up a simple interface. Flex’s CSS is a little different than what I’m used to, so this was a very helpful tool in getting up to speed.
Oddly this tool wasn’t easily found, so I figured I’d share.
Techlog
It would seem I have a new blog.
