SWF optimization options (Illustrator)
The Adobe Flash (SWF) file format is a vector-based graphics file format for the creation of scalable, compact
graphics for the web. Because the file format is vector-based, the artwork maintains its image quality at any
resolution. The SWF format is ideal for the creation of animation frames, but you can also save raster images in SWF
format or mix raster and vector graphics.
Optimization settings for SWF
A. File format menu B. Flash Player menu C. Export menu
Preset Specifies the preconfigured set of options you want to use for export. You can create new presets by setting
optionsasdesired,andthenchoosingSaveSettingsfromthepanelmenu.(Toopenthepanelmenu,clickthetriangle
to the right of the Preset menu.)
Flash Player Version Specifies the earliest version of Flash Player that will support the exported file.
Type Of Export Determines how layers are exported. Select AI File To SWF File to export the artwork to a single
frame. Select 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 Specifies 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 Specifies the rate at which the animation will play in a Flash viewer. This option is available only for
Layers To SWF Frames.
Loop Causes the animation to loop continuously, rather than play once and then stop, when played in a Flash viewer.
This option is available only for Layers To SWF Frames.
Preserve Appearance Expands strokes into stroke-shaped fills and flattens any blending modes and transparency
that SWF doesn’t support.
Preserve Editability Where Possible Converts strokes to SWF strokes, and approximates or ignores transparency
that SWF doesn’t support.
Note: SWF supports object-level opacity only.
