Re: FLASH: illustrator to flash 5

[Chris Urban]

dustin,


After you save your art within illustrator, but before you copy and paste

into Flash, go to Object > Path > outline Path... This will convert your

strokes into objects with fill. This is especially important if your lines

are stroked with a variable brush or some sort of pattern.

Additionally, if your objects are not going to be edited individually within

Flash (like legs on a body, for example) you may want to Pathfinder > Unite

before you copy and paste to keep the objects complexity down.


Hth,
