Re: [syndication] RSS inside PDF

["Bill Kearney" <wkearney@syndic8.com>]

Do you want to render the RSS file into the PDF when you create the PDF?  Or
do you want to have the PDF viewer 'automatigically' update it's contents
from an RSS document when viewed at some later point?  The former is
certainly do-able following Don's suggestion.  The latter, I'm not sure it's
possible nor would I entertain doing it even if it was.  Imagine the
security risks of letting code from an external source be driven into a PDF
viewer.  I'd hope the PDF viewer would 'take steps' to secure the run-time
environment but I wouldn't bet any of my own money on it working properly.

What are you trying to do?  There may be more than one way to skin the cat.
