I don't know if Adobe tested against the free FlashWriter Export Plugin for

Illustrator 8 when they were developing Illustrator 9. I asked one of the

Adobe reps about any feature differences or other things customers should

know, and he merely said "we did SWF export right". Perhaps that means

breaking the old exporter, I'm not sure.... ;-)


I haven't seen reports from others with problems in using the plugin in

ILL9, although the Adobe folks would know best about whether their new app

is backwards-compatible with existing plugins. Sorry, best I've got is that

there's no firm bad news, if that weak context is of help.
