About export file formats 509
WAV audio (Windows)
The WAV Export Movie option exports only the sound file of the current document to a
single WAV file. You can specify the sound format of the new file.
Select Sound Format to determine the sampling frequency, bit rate, and stereo or mono
setting of the exported sound. Select Ignore Event Sounds to exclude events sounds from the
exported file.
Windows AVI (Windows)
This format exports a document as a Windows video but discards any interactivity. The
standard Windows movie format, AVI, is a good format for opening a Flash animation in a
video-editing application. Because AVI is a bitmap-based format, documents that contain
long or high-resolution animations can quickly become very large.
The Export Windows AVI dialog box has the following options:
Dimensions specifies a width and height, in pixels, for the frames of an AVI movie. Specify
only the width or the height; the other dimension is automatically set to maintain the aspect
ratio of your original document. Deselect Maintain Aspect Ratio to set both the width and
the height.
Video Format selects a color depth. Some applications do not yet support the Windows 32-
bit image format. If you have problems using this format, use the older 24-bit format.
Compress Video displays a dialog box for selecting standard AVI compression options.
Smooth applies anti-aliasing to the exported AVI movie. Anti-aliasing produces a higher-
quality bitmap image, but it can cause a halo of gray pixels to appear around images when
placed over a colored background. Deselect the option if a halo appears.
Sound Format lets you set the sample rate and size of the sound track, and whether it will be
exported in mono or stereo. The smaller the sample rate and size, the smaller the exported file,
with a possible trade-off in sound quality. For more information on exporting sound to the
AVI format, see “Compressing sounds for export” on page 321.
Windows Metafile
Windows Metafile format is the standard Windows graphics format and is supported by most
Windows applications. This format yields good results for importing and exporting files. It
has no definable export options. See “Enhanced Metafile (Windows)” on page 505.
