Optimizing Fireworks graphics placed in Dreamweaver

You can easily change the optimization settings of a Fireworks image placed in Dreamweaver by launching Fireworks from Dreamweaver and changing the settings in the Export Preview dialog box.

To optimize a Fireworks image placed in Dreamweaver:

1 In Dreamweaver 2 or 3, choose Command > Optimize in Fireworks.
2 At the prompt to use an existing Fireworks document as the source of the graphic:
Click Yes if a Fireworks source PNG file exists, browse to the PNG source file if necessary, and click OK.
Click No if no Fireworks source file exists or if you only want to edit the bitmap image placed in Dreamweaver.
3 In the Fireworks Export Preview, enter optimization settings, then click Update.

The updated image is saved over the old one in your Dreamweaver folder, and the image placed in Dreamweaver updates to reflect the change.
