I have been using this for some time now: sometimes you need to export something generated in Flash to a (vector) file. Another name for this post could be: Flash2PDF, Flash to PDF, SWF2PDF, SWF to PDF, Export2PDF, Export to PDF….. you catch my drift 🙂
And the solution is very simple: just print a .PDF!
What is PDF?
Portable Document Format (PDF) lets you capture and view robust information—from any application, on any computer system.
from the creators: Adobe

How does it work?
Windows
You need to download (and install) a program: PDFCreator. PDFCreator is opensource: which means a lot, but the only thing you need to know for now is that it’s free.
PDFCreator is a free tool to create PDF files from nearly any Windows application.
After you install it, you can print PDF files from every program: print a document, choose the printer with the name “PDF Creator” and print.
Mac OSX
Apple doesn’t need a special program for that; it’s already build in: read more about that here
(can’t tell you much about Mac… I own one, but it’s old so I don’t work on it anymore)
