Re: FLASH: Importing graphics from Illustrator

[Todd Reinsch]

I may have figured out the problem importing Illustrator files into Flash

and keeping the color values the same in Illustrator. Freehand has a

fuction that will allow you to convert CMYK to RGB files during export.

Illustrator, which creates art in CMYK or Pantone just like Freehand, does

not have this feature. So the conversion is not as percise as Freehand.

Does anyone know of a work around. Again I need to be able to save out

Illustrator files to import into Flash and maintain the original color

values.
