You may have to save a Flash file in the form of a PDF so that you can send the file via electronic mail or insert it into a big PDF document. However, you do not have the ability to just click a Flash file with your mouse and store it as a document. If you know how to navigate with your online browser or understand the proper keys to press in Flash, you can save a Flash file as a PDF.
