Export Flash image to Illustrator : bad colors and no transparency

I've tried to export my vector work from Flash to
Illustrator.
The result is bad : colors have faded and transparent colors
became opaque.
It is a shame that Flash doesn't provide a correct export
function to
Illustrator now that Flash and Illustrator are both Adobe's
softwares.
Does somebody know a better way or software to export
Flash/SWF vector
images to Illustrator or PDF?
Thanks.
Henri

You may want to follow this thread–no answer so far, but we live in hope…

Can I export solid objects into Illustrator / InDesign CS2 and maintain vector format

Can Adobe 3D export solid objects in vector format into Illustrator or InDesign CS2 suite?
I'm interested in taking solid 3D objects developed in Pro/E 2.0 and import from Adobe 3D into Adobe Illustrator & InDesign in vector format for page layout. I want to import solid objects in vector format and maintain color scheme and surface textures.
I'm running 3D trial version and can successfully import 3D objects (asm & prt files) solid views from Pro/E but can only export wireframe views from Adobe 3D Toolkit into Illustrator or InDesign (CS2). Solid objects first have to get rendered in a raster format before importing into Illustrator.
If this function is not supported does anyone have experience doing this using Quadraspace or Right Hemisphere 3D software?

Any help???? After 2 weeks I still can't learn from Adobe or Right Hemisphere people how to import solid objects in vector format into Illustrator with color and surface textures in place. All imported objects in vector format are converted to a wireframe or line format unless they are first rasterized.

How can I export an image from Illustrator same canvas size and custom resolution?

Hey all. i am using Adobe Illustrator CS5 for creating images for iPhone app icons the size of image 374 px 374 px and 264 ppi. i created an image same size and ppi .the problem after export the image file size changing to 1371px x 1371px and 264 ppi pixel dimension.How can I export same canvas size and same resolution file from illustrator

10111980,
If you just forget about PPI and use Save for Web, you will get the 374 x 374 pixel size.
The 1371 x 1371 pixels is because you somehow increase the resolution by 264/72.
You should never mix pixel by pixel sizes and PPI.
The 374 x 374 pixels is the actual image size. At 264 PPI that will be about 1.417 inches. At 72 PPI that will be about 5.194 inches.

Transparent PSD image in Illustrator changes color of vector background after print.

Hello, I really don't know how to explain this so I'll just upload my files which are located here: http://rapidshare.com/files/4040672260/Green%20circle.rar
I have a green vector background in illustrator and then I placed psd image over it and created PDF for press and under Color bitmap images I selected no compression.
After viewing image in Acrobat all seems ok, I even checked with picker, but after I send this to printer (xerox in thsi case) I end up with this: .
Both .psd and .ai are in CMYK color space. For this particular case I could use mask to cover up that transparent space but my original project has shadows which I cannot mask by vector :S.
Can someone plz explain to me what I am doing whrong or how to set color profiles or whatever is neccessary to avoid this issue. One thing I was using was, opening PDF in Photoshop and flatening all. Problem is that sometimes I need vector files and cut lines for cutter. Don't want to have bitmap, if I can have a vector? Also when I flaten image I do get same CMYK values in photoshop (with picker) than I have in Illustrator on vector object, but when I print this they don't match at all.
Does someone know a solution?
THANKS in advance and sry for my bad english.
Stefan

Nothing worng with your .ai or .psd file, prints fine here. Problem is with your tranparency flattening.
Most likely you can fix that by print >> Advanced >> Custom >.> Move slider all the way towards rasters.
If you need more help, let us knwo your printere, and screenshtos of your print settings can help.

When I export an image from Illustrator, my placed images are distorted

Hi,
I've rendered an image in Maya, saved it as a .psd, and placed it into Illustrator. In Illustrator, I get very jagged curves and lines on my artboard and when I export to a bitmap (see attached...the first image is before Illustrator, the second is after export from Illustrator). I have saved my Photoshop file to the EXACT size it needs to be, so there's no scaling.
Please help!
Thank you!

I'm new to photoshop and I want to convert an image file to a fabric file like .zfab or .fab...is this possible? I want the image to be in color and the images are .png. I am using windows 8

HI I am using software for fashion design called Marvelous Design . I want to import my fabric patterns which are .png image files but they have to be in .zfab or .fab format. can adobe convert these files into these extensions? If so, how do I do it? Thanks for any help!

This is from File extension FAB - Open .fab files :
The FAB file extension is associated with the Fabmaster software, or file format developed by the Electronic Source Company.
Fabmaster seems to be obsolete product that is not supported by its developers.

As for the software, did you mean Marvelous Designer?

Flash CC crashes every time I try to export an image

I just downloaded the free trial of Flash CC because I wanted to test it out as a drawing program. I just finished an illustration and want to export it as a .JPEG, but every time I try, Flash crashes! I tried creating a new file and just exporting an image of a small circle, and even that caused the program to crash.
I don't want to have wasted a free trial and be unable to use or access these images after the trial runs out, simply because I cannot export them into image files.
Any help would be wonderful, thanks.
(I am using a desktop Mac, if that makes any difference)

Are you on Mac OSX 10.6? Flash Pro CC is not supported on Mac 10.6 and this crash is one of the known issues on Mac 10.6.

Exporting rather large image in Illustrator CS5...

Lets just say I wanted to export an image from Illustrator CS5
What I want would be 3000px², with 300ppi, and level 7 detail, jpeg. (I would work with PNG ussually, but that's a whole nother issue)
My computer specs
i7, quad core
3.2 GHz
8gb ram
RAID 0 HDDs
So when I try to export the image, it tells me that I have insufficient memory. I can produce 150ppi just fine but dammit, if I can't do 300ppi with my build, what computer can? (I do, however, understand that 3000px² is rather large)
Thanks for you time

Do I understand you correctly, your document is 3000x3000 pixels in dimension, that is the size of your artboard or bounding box of the art?
A nd you are exporting it as jpeg at 300ppi? Then what is the color mode of the document, RGB or CMYK?

Flash Image Gallery

I purchased the Flash Image Gallery Extension. Installed and
created several beautiful working galleries.
In my image gallery (link below) there are Category titles
176, 186, etc.. When you click the titles it changes the thumbnail
pictures, while the main image remains the same.
Question: I'd like to click on a Category Title and have the
Main Fullsize image change as well. This would help visually to see
that you have in fact changed to a new category. As it is now, it
is not evident that you've changed category. You have to go to the
tn images and click there.
Can you give me some direction on how accomplish this?
Perhaps a behavior - when category title is clicked on the main
image will appear for that category? Seems like a simple edit. Can
I do such an edit on a purchased gallery template file extension?
New to flash, quite familiar with DW CS3. Below is a link to
my gallery:
My
Gallery Link

Hi
These can be linked together - it will need you to change the
destination of the 'Front Page' link (URL) to point to the
appropriate 'Gallery', in the XML you can identify sections by
using the same 'Gallery Id' from the link (URL) in the 'Front
Page'.
Does that make sense?, if you need more help then let me
know

How do I flatten images in Illustrator?

How do I flatten images in Illustrator?

The Object>Flatten transparency does not change the kb for the document.
I'm trying to make the piece smaller so I can send it via drop box or
yousendit quickly. The original is 55+kb and takes a couple of hours to
download (I'm not in a community so I don't have really fast internet). I
thought if I could flatten the images it might help but Object>Flatten
doesn't seem to work. Would it change the kbs or leave them the same and
just make it send faster?

My Flash Image viewer won't flush left on Windows

I created a Flash image viewer file in Dreamwever and put it
into a table cell and it seems to go flush left on the Mac, but
flushes right on Windows browsers, I have the cell set to flush
left. Can anyone help me with this?

Okay what I do is this. I want to insert a Flash collection of images, one changing to the other. I go to insert, then Flash then image viewer and the Flash image appears where my cursor is, and then my FLash editor appears on the right hand side, and I drop images into it, using the + key, taking them from the images in the foler for the web site. File size of the images are fine I think, all less than a 100k in size. Whe I press play or preview in the web browser, it just flashes once and is displayed as white . No images appear or anything.. I cannot upload to a live site at the moment unfortunatley. I can make take a photo of the screen if you want so you can see it?? Let me know.

Scanned pdf image into Illustrator (Live Tracing,filling colors and styles)

Hi,
I am a newbie in the forum.My first ever post. I have specific issue which needs your opinion. I have scanned a black and white sketch image which I bring on to Illustrator. The problem start after live tracing.
After live tracing I need to fill it with a certain color (which I find absent in swatches).
I have to update these sketches into an Indesign brochure which already has the original imported Illustrator sketches (done by some one else). So the original imported Illustrator sketch files have a color filled in and particular chalk like impression (style).
So the problem is that I do not know how to fill the live traced sketch outlines with a color and then bring in a chalk like style to it.
I need assistance badly..I have hit a bad road block.
Thank you.

I have never used the live paint feature, sorry.
I typically always create everything with the pen tool, and some basic shapes, I draw a shape and then fill it with a color, gradient, or a stroke. This can see limiting at first not using a lot of filters but in the long run the precision control is worth it. I design entire websites this way, for example these are two sites I am currently working on….

Import and export the image in flash

HI! Guys!
I am Quite New to to flash in this enviroment so please i
need help can any one help me out in this problem.
the issue is I need to upload the image from my desktop to
certain flash animation by draging and generate the image from that
final Flash animation and save it in my computer.
Dijup

if you're using flash 8, you can use flash to upload a file
(using the filereference class) to a server that hosts the swf. and
if that file is a jpg or gif, you can load it into flash. however,
you can't drag and drop a file into flash.

Exporting Flash to image

Im looking for the best way to export an image from flash for print. I will be needing to print anywhere from about 12 inches long all the way up to as much as 6 ft long. Ive tried export> image options but the quality is severely compromised.
Thanks
Brad

I haven't really found the need to export to Illustrator before. But I did run a couple tests earlier today, just nothing extensive.
What I do know is that Flash and AI handle color space differently, thus your color changes. When you try to open an .ai file that you exported from Flash, you should get a prompt about color space. Try the different settings and see which will get you artwork closest.
Since Flash and AI handle gradients differently, I found that AI will drop the gradients of anything from Flash and use the first most color for the object.
I didn't even look to see if my layers were still intact, but the vectors were all grouped when I opened in AI because they were movie clips in Flash. So, if AI is flattening your image, try turning them to groups or mcs in Flash before exporting.
This is all contingent on the fact that you may want to be able to manipulate your artwork in AI after exporting from Flash.
You could export a png from Flash as well. Vector artwork comes out pretty nice. I suggest the following:
1. Make sure all your artwork to export is inside of a movie clip.
2. If you have mulitple piece of art to export, put each in their own mc and then into their own fla.
3. put your main container mc on the main stage and highlight it.
4. File>Export Image
5. Select PNG
6. When the options prompt appears, change to "Minimum Image Area" not "Stage Size", change your size and dpi - probably 300dpi. (I would use PhotoShop ot AI to figure out the physical dimensions)
7. Save.
