Importing Adobe Illustrator, EPS, or PDF files
Flash can import Adobe Illustrator files in version 10 or earlier, EPS files in any version, and
PDF files in version 1.4 or earlier.
When you import an Illustrator file into Flash, you must ungroup all the Illustrator objects on
all layers. Once all the objects are ungrouped, they can be manipulated like any other Flash
object. You can also export Flash documents as Adobe Illustrator files. For information on
exporting Illustrator files, see “Adobe Illustrator” on page 503.
NOTE
The PDF version number is different from the Adobe Acrobat number. Adobe Acrobat is
a product used to author PDF files. PDF is the file format.
