Its reasonably straightforward to rename .orb to .zip. then unzip to a folder renaming all files to .swf too.

Let Adobe Acrobat Pro do the rest. (remembering that both .swf and .pdf are adobe formats).

My converted .orb ebooks to .pdf with swf --> pdf format with Acrobat Pro 11 are of a higher image file size like 800 kb per page, but the image quality is quite good.

However, as you turn the multi-file to pdf on with .swf on, each page is converted individually before Acrobat collates them in a single pdf. Cumbersome, but atleast the quality is nice.

Someone did a single page conversion video on youtube :

Tedious brainless person who created .orb, and now we reconvert it back again.
