Fireworks CS4 Resources

Options for importing Fireworks graphics, vector objects, and text

Import As A Single Flattened Bitmap: Imports a single, uneditable image.
Import All Pages Into New States As Movie Clips: Imports all of the pages in the PNG file into a new Flash layer that takes the name of the PNG file. A key state is created in the new layer at the current state’s location, the first page of the PNG file is placed as a movie clip in this state, and all the other pages are placed in states following it as movie clips. The layer hierarchy and states within the PNG file are preserved.
Import Page 1 Into Current State As Movie Clip: The contents of the selected page are imported as a movie clip, which is placed in the active state and layer in the Flash file. The layer hierarchy and states within the PNG file are preserved.
Import All Pages Into New Scenes As Movie Clips: Imports all of the pages from the PNG file and maps each one to a new scene as movie clips. Any layers and states within the pages are preserved. If scenes already exist in the Flash file, the import process adds the new scenes after the existing ones.
Import Page 1 Into New Layer: The selected page is imported as a new layer. States are imported into the timeline as separate states.

Import As Bitmaps To Maintain Appearance: Preserves the editability of vector objects, unless they have special fills, strokes, or effects that Flash does not support. To preserve the appearance of such objects, Flash converts them to non-editable bitmap images.
Import As Editable Paths: Preserves the editability of all vector objects. If objects have special fills, strokes, or effects that Flash does not support, those properties might look different after they are imported.

Import As Bitmaps To Maintain Appearance: Preserves the editability of text, unless it has special fills, strokes, or effects that Flash does not support. To preserve the appearance of such text, Flash converts it to a non-editable bitmap image.
Keep All Text Editable: Preserves the editability of all text. If text objects contain special fills, strokes, or effects that Flash does not support, those objects might look different after they are imported.
