Does anyone know a way to export the visible contents of a .swf into a .svg file? For instance, if I write AS to generate a vector square on the stage, publish it to .swf, can that square be later exported as a .svg file?

I know that it is possible to export a bitmapData as ByteArray, and use a php file to translate it into pixels, but is there a method to draw vectors in a .svg file?
