Optimization options for SWF formatSWF is a vector-based format that creates scalable, compact graphics. Because SWF is vector-based, artwork maintains its image quality at different resolutions and is ideal for the creation of animation frames.(See About graphic file formats.) ![]() Optimization panel for SWF format A. File format menu B. Export As menu C. Optimize menu Read Only Select Read Only to prohibit users from modifying the exported SWF file. Export As Select AI File to SWF File to export the artwork to a single frame. Select AI Layers to SWF Frames to export the artwork on each layer to a separate SWF frame, creating an animated SWF. Note: Select AI File to SWF File to preserve layer clipping masks. Curve Quality Specify the accuracy of the bezier curves. A low number decreases the exported file size with a slight loss of curve quality. A higher number increases the accuracy of the bezier curve reproduction, but results in a larger file size. Frame Rate Specify the rate at which the animation will be played in a Macromedia Flash viewer. (This option is only available for AI Layers to SWF Frames.) Loop Select Loop to cause the animation to loop continuously, rather than play once and then stop, when played in a Macromedia Flash viewer. (This option is only available for AI Layers to SWF Frames.) |
