Answer is "B," at least when importing an exported AI 6.0 file into Flash.

It can also export as dxf, something I don't know about, other than it's a

vector thing (yes?).


I vote that Macromedia make a 3d app that's simpler (and more affordable?)

than the ones intended to make animations as an end in themselves. I might

even be enticed to switch to Freehand if that happens! Maybe a resolution

to demand from MACR a 3d app with Flash in mind could be the second thing

on the docket of the Flash Author's Union right after we fix our rates. A

joke, it's a joke.
