(And what are the best open source alternatives).

We're setting up something private for sharing documents.

Thanks!

I found in a job posting:

iPaper is an unusually complex Flash application with many highly technical components.

So it looks proprietary.

Looks like they started with something like http://www.swftools.org/ and developed a custom viewer for the swf files.

For doc and other formats, one can use openoffice commandline tools to convert them all to pdf.

edit: Some history - http://news.cnet.com/8301-17939_109-9874527-2.html Scribd initially used the now discontinued flash paper.
