Hey there Lincoln,

In freehand select;

export and then choose swf ; - )

Then you just import the swf movie into your flash movie.

Good luck.

Why on earth is it not possible to import Freehand 8 files into Flash?
 
You can import Adobe Illustrator files (not just .eps but .ai too) but not .fh8 files.
 
Other than exporting Freehand 8 files as Adobe Illustrator files, is there any other way to get drawings from Freehand into Flash 3 or 4? I've tried saving freehand drawings as .eps and then importing, but it only works half the time.
 
I just can't believe Macromedia didn't make their own vector program compatible with Flash, BUT made their competitors program extremely compatible. Does this make sense to anyone?
