Topic: flash versus animated GIF in templates

I am using a short script to distribute a template across several pages in a document (using the spawnPageFromTemplate function). This template includes an animation which was originally a flash animation. However, when the script was run, the flash on the resulting page was no longer an animation; it was just a still image. So, I tried using an animated GIF instead and low and behold the GIF worked!
Does anyone have an idea as to why this is? I actually prefer the quality of the flash, but if I have to use the GIF I will. Is there a way I can get the flash to work? or am I stuck with the GIF?
Thanks for your help.
