Import Fireworks PNG files into Flash

You can import Fireworks PNG source files directly into Flash, without having to export to any other graphics format. All Fireworks vectors, bitmaps, animations, and multi-state button graphics can be imported into Flash.

Note: Fireworks button behaviors and other types of interactivity are not imported into Flash because Fireworks behaviors are enabled by JavaScript that is external to the file format. Flash uses internal ActionScript code.

  1. Save the document in Fireworks.

  2. Switch to an open document in Flash.

  3. (Optional) Click the key state and layer onto which you want to import the Fireworks content.

  4. Select File > Import.

  5. Navigate to and select the PNG file.

  6. In the Import Fireworks Document dialog box, do one of the following:

    • Select the Import As A Single, Flattened Bitmap option.

    • Select an import option from the two pop-up menus.

  7. Select how to import text.

  8. Click OK.

    Note: Your selections in the Import Fireworks Document dialog box are saved and used as default settings.
