MACROMEDIA FLASH MX 2004-USING FLASH Use Manual page 379

Each call to add a new page is unique, which lets you modify parameters without affecting
previously set parameters. For example, you can specify that one page print as a bitmap image and
another page print as a vector graphic. You can add as many new pages to your print job as the
print job requires. One call to add a page equals one printed page.
Note: Any ActionScript that needs to be called to change a resulting printout must run before the
PrintJob.addPage() method is called. The ActionScript can, however, run before or after a new
PrintJob(). If a frame has a call to the PrintJob.addPage() method, the call itself does not
guarantee that the ActionScript script on that frame will run when that frame is printed.
