Export a Fireworks document to MXML

Fireworks can help you layout rich Internet applications (RIAs) by enabling the export of common library assets as known components for use in Adobe Flex Builder. Fireworks exports the necessary Flex code (MXML) with styling and absolute positioning maintained.

When you finalize a Flex application prototype, export it to MXML for further editing in Flex Builder. In Design view, the prototype looks like its Fireworks counterpart, except for components such as cursors and scroll bars that are not exported.

  1. Choose File > Export.

  2. From the Export pop-up menu, choose MXML and Images.

  3. Select Put Images in Subfolder if you want to save the images in a separate folder from the MXML code.

  4. Select Current Page Only to export only the currently selected page.

  5. Click Save to complete the export.

    Any images associated with the prototype are exported to the images folder. Additionally, images of the full MXML pages are also created with the other image files. MXML pages don’t require these preview images and can be removed.
