Thank you both Patrick and Adam, I am trying the first option with the PDF
in the media file because we would rather like the document as a link than
as a swf in this case, but the other option seems very interesting for next
activities.

I have bee using Print2Flash free edition which only adds a text in the foot
of the page which is not so bad if you are interested.

Cheers!
Marta
