[FONT=Helvetica]Hi -[/FONT]  
[FONT=Helvetica]My name is Tom Pounder and I am a digital artist (see my work here: [www.jumbointernational.org](http://www.jumbointernational.org)).[/FONT]  
[FONT=Helvetica]  
I have created a pattern generator using AS2 that can be seen here:

[/FONT]  
[FONT=Helvetica]The idea is that a random number of randomised shapes, randomly positioned and rotated, are coloured from a specified palette and then mirrored to create a kind of Rorschach test image ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rorschach\_test](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rorschach_test)).[/FONT]  
[FONT=Helvetica]  
[/FONT][FONT=Helvetica]My question is: is it possible using AS3 to get a SWF to generate a pattern in a similar fashion but then export it as a vector art file (SVG or PDF). [/FONT]  
[FONT=Helvetica]  
And then: does anyone fancy helping me create such a thing?[/FONT]  
[FONT=Helvetica]  
Any pointers greatly appreciated. You can download my source file here:[/FONT]
