                  The resulting SWF will not be playable in browsers with
              Flash Plugins 5 and below!

       -i, --ignore
                  SWF files a little bit smaller, but it may also cause the
              images in the pdf to look funny.

       -j, --jpegquality quality
                  Set quality of embedded jpeg pictures to quality. 0 is worst
              (small), 100 is best (big). (default:85)

       -s, --set param=value
                  Set a SWF encoder specific parameter.  See pdf2swf -s help

       -w, --samewindow
                  When clicked on, the page they point to will be opened in
              the window the SWF is displayed.

       -t, --stop
                  The resulting SWF file will not turn pages automatically.

       -F, --fontdir directory
                  Add directory to the font search path.

       -b, --defaultviewer
                  Therefore the swf file will be "browseable", i.e.  display
              some buttons for turning pages.
                  The viewer swf to be used is determined by a symlink named
              "default_viewer.swf" in
                  the swftools data directory.

       -l, --defaultloader
                  The loader swf to be used is determined by a symlink named
              "default_loader.swf" in
                  the swftools data directory.

       -B, --viewer filename
                  See http://www.quiss.org/swftools/pdf2swf_usage.html for
              information on how to create your own viewers.

       -L, --preloader filename
                  filename is an arbitrary swf animation.

       -q, --quiet
                  Suppress normal messages.  Use -qq to suppress warnings,
              also.

       -S, --shapes
                  Don't use SWF Fonts, but store everything as shape.

       -f, --fonts
                  Store full fonts in SWF. (Don't reduce to used characters).

       -G, --flatten
                  This usually makes the file faster to render and also
              usually smaller, but will increase
                  conversion time.

       -I, --info
                  Don't do actual conversion, just display a list of all pages
              in the PDF.

       -Q, --maxtime n
                  Abort conversion after n seconds. Only available on Unix.
