When I'm asked to include a pdf in anything I print it to Macromedia Flash Paper and save it out as an .swf which can then be used natively in AMS. You get the functionality you would with a pdf such as zooming, searching, printing but with non of the hassle that seems to be associated with pdf's.

Just a thought

I have been working lately on a project - web browser window library (WebBrowserWindow.dll).
It is an external web browser window which can naviagte as usual at an given url but also has the capability to load pdf files. It has also the capability to display text/html content from string.

WebBrowserWindow.01.jpeg: usual url.
WebBrowserWindow.02.jpeg: pdf file.

These are the actions:

WebBrowserWindow.GetTitle
WebBrowserWindow.GetPosition
WebBrowserWindow.GetSize
WebBrowserWindow.GetWindowState
WebBrowserWindow.GetWindowStyle
WebBrowserWindow.SetTitle
WebBrowserWindow.SetPosition
WebBrowserWindow.SetSize
WebBrowserWindow.SetWindowState // Supported: Minimized, Normal, Maximized, FullScreen
WebBrowserWindow.SetWindowStyle // Supported: Fixed (popup), Sizable
WebBrowserWindow.Show
WebBrowserWindow.Hide
WebBrowserWindow.ShowDialog
WebBrowserWindow.Navigate
WebBrowserWindow.Back
WebBrowserWindow.Forward
WebBrowserWindow.Home
WebBrowserWindow.Search
WebBrowserWindow.Stop
WebBrowserWindow.Print
WebBrowserWindow.Refresh
WebBrowserWindow.PageSetupDialog
WebBrowserWindow.PrintPreviewDialog
WebBrowserWindow.PrintDialog
WebBrowserWindow.PropertiesDialog
WebBrowserWindow.SaveAsDialog
WebBrowserWindow.EnableNavigation
WebBrowserWindow.EnableDrop
WebBrowserWindow.EnableContextMenu
WebBrowserWindow.EnableScrollBars
WebBrowserWindow.EnableShortcuts
WebBrowserWindow.EnableScriptErrors
WebBrowserWindow.IsNavigationEnabled
WebBrowserWindow.IsDropEnabled
WebBrowserWindow.IsContextMenuEnabled
WebBrowserWindow.IsScrollBarsEnabled
WebBrowserWindow.IsShortcutsEnabled

The dll will work also with ams6. You can use the dll with any language that understand what a dll is. But you must have ams5 to open the project. Most of the members here do. Soon i will be moving to ams6 and at that time i will convert the ams5 project into ams6. Understand that i help where i can and how i can. Thats as far as i can go.

.Net 2.0 required

Download the latest version (v.1.0.0.3) in case you want to use it, and follow the instructions.

SSide,
Thanks for the clarification...I don't have AMS5---only the latest version as I am fairly new to AMS. I'll have to wait until you get to v6 to update the dll...again, thanks for the clarification.
