I don't think there's any direct way to do what you want to do with flash alone. However, if you have "Flash Paper" installed you can create a standard print function in your fla. Then at runtime when you print you can choose to print to "Flash Paper" instead of a printer. Once it's in Flash Paper you can save it as a PDF.

If you're wanting it to print to PDF automatically without going through the middle man of Flash Paper then it will probably require some kind of third party software. Probably something that will wrapper the .swf inside an .exe and require FScommands and all that good stuff.

Hope this helps!
