Exporting Directly to Flash
ImageReady lets you export a document as into the Flash SWF file format, that can then go directly to the Web or be imported into Macromedia Flash. If the document is a multilayered Photoshop file, each layer can be exported as a single SWF object file, or each layer can be exported as separate SWF files (using Layers As Files). If a multi-layered document file is exported into one SWF file, any animation frames are exported automatically as SWF animation frames. However, slices, image maps, and rollovers are not converted and are ignored.
