Flash CS3 / Illustrator CS2 Heritage Problem
Does anyone know if there are any heritage problems that
occour when you open an CS2 Illustrator file in Flash CS3?
Someone told me certain effects dont appear (i.e. gradients)
or that that image wont move as it's supposed to.
I have CS2 Illustrator & I want to purchase CS3 flash,
but I'm not sure if there would be a problem while importing my CS2
.AI files.
I have encounterd the same problems. ( illustrator,flash, indesign not working)
I did almost every thing I could think of: clear Caches, Prefs, and run CS3 clean script before reinstallation.
I also had the latest Version CUE updates 3.0.1 (downloaded the FixVCUIFramework).
But nothing above helped :( , apps still crashed right after launch.
*Then, I remembered having installed this thing called "Application Enhancer" right before the apps starting to crash. SO I REMOVED IT, and haunted down all the remaining files, trashing them all.
Next I went into the SAFE MODE (so the system clears up some caches)
After that I also DISABLED the USER FONTS when I login to the normal mode.
And my CS3 apps WORKS AGAIN !!! :)
I'm not sure which one of the above steps really solved the problem...
All I knew was that none of them could work out the problem alone.
Hope this helps a little...
GOOD LUCK!!
Ps. the Fonts thing are really troublesome!! Caused a lot crash for the system!

CS3 Illustrator and Indesign problems
I am still using CS3 and have recently reinstalled (uninstalled from old comp) onto a new computer with double the capacity - now 8GB 64 bit OS Wind 7 Prof. Since it has been on the new computer both Illustrator and Indesign close down on opening. Indesign I haven't been able to use successfully, but I am using Illustrator, slowly and patiently. The message on Indesign is basically the same each time, 'No virtual memory, free up memory' or similar. Illustrator opens asking to relink/replace all images & graphic, but closes down each time I try to relink through this prompt. What I do is 'ignore' and then manually relink. This seems to work for awhile, then goes into 'Illustrator Not Responding' will either freeze or close down, either way I loose what I have just done.
What can the problem be, apart from it being CS3, no use saying I need to upgrade, because the company will not do that. Do I need to download a patch or update etc. Help, getting a little impatient with it all.
Cheers
DonnaShort answer: CS3 is not tested and not certified to run on Win 7. Therefore, at the riosk of sounding rude, as far as Adobe is concerned, your problems are your own. There are no patches or magic buttons to push. All you can hope is to maximize compatibility by turning off UAC, using compatibility mode for Win XP, running with admin privileges and so on. Talk to your IT department/ person. If you can provide exact system info and the crash details, we may be able to advise further.

I save my CS3 file as a CS2 file to give to my client. They open the CS2 file and all of the layers are grouped together in one layer. Does anyone know why this happens and how I can fix it?
Any time you save a file down to an earlier version you're asking for trouble. It doesn't matter if it's Illustrator, inDesign, Quark, whatever.
After you down-save, when you open it again in CS3 to check are the layers still intact? -

Problem in displaying Arabic text in flash cs3/cs4
Hi All, I'm creating one website. I have to display dynamic xmlize arabic text in flash. I have done it using flash cs3/AS3. But problem is that when text displays in flash it is not rendering as expected. Some gaps comes in the characters. But when I open my xml in browser, arabic text displays correct.
Is there any way to do it in flash cs3 or Flash cs4 using player 9? It would be really great if anyone can give me solution on this. Thanks
ChandrakantYou have to do it yourself - I don't have a ready solution. Just look into documentation how StyleSheets are used and see what properties work best for you:
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/text/TextField.html
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/text/StyleSheet.html
Also, with embedded fonts you need to play with TextFormat settings and AntiAliasType
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/text/AntiAliasType.html
In addition, on my machine even if I don't emebed fonts - Arabic works in Arial, TImes and others. -
Flash CS3: Serious lag when Switching between Applications
I've got a serious problem with Flash CS 3 on my Macbook Pro,
which makes it almost unworkable.
When I'm working in flash, switch to another application
(Mail, Illustrator, any...) and then switch back to flash. the
program freezes for at least 9 to 10 seconds: The Menu's are all
transparant and greyed out, and the only thing I see is the beloved
"beachball" spinning.
Needless to say that this makes it very hard to work with the
program, since switching between apps is a big part of my workflow.
Is anyone experiencing the same problem?
I have re-installed the whole CS3 suite (twice) and even
cleaned up my computer and did a clean install of OS X!!
I'm running on a 15" mac book pro (2,33) with 2gig memory,
bought last may.
Any help is welcome,I'm having the same problem as well. I was using Flash 8,
thought I would upgrade to Flash CS3 and solve the problem but that
was no good. There's still a long lag time when switching to Flash
from any other program. Not sure if it's a Memory problem or a Font
problem. Any word on a solution for this annoying problem?
I'm running a PowerPC G5 with dual 2.0ghz processors and 2.5
GB of ram.
Thanks! -
Importing PDF into flash CS3 - Importer du PDF dans CS3
Hello.
Originally, i posted my question in french. So i will try to
convert in english, but my english is poor.
You can see the original in french, in back of this topic, in
bolded text
So, my problem : i can import some PDF files with Flash MX
2004, but i cannot do the same with Flash CS3.
When i import (import in the scene - Command+R) the PDF file
in Flash MX 2004, i got the vectorial logo correctly and the text
as a text.
But when i import (import in the scene - Command+R) the same
PDF file into Flash CS3, there is a problem. At start, i cannot
click the PDF file, i have to choose "all the files" to can click
it. Then i click it and there is a pop window appearing, talking
about "importing video". But my PDF is not Video… And at the
end, the result is a poor jpg image of my PDF, not the vectorials
that i would like.
So why the old Flash MX can do it easily, and the recent CS3
can not ?
What i have to do ?
Bonjour,
Jusqu'à peu, j'utilisais Flash MX 2004 et quand je
faisais une importation dans la scène, je pouvais importer des
fichiers PDF, et j'obtenais en quelques dixiemes de secondes,
l'importation du contenu (en général quelques logos en
vectoriel et du texte). Léger, simple, rapide, efficace !
Et puis j'ai installé la version CS3 Professionnal, et
là c'est la débacle.
Quand je fais importation dans la scène, et
sélectionne une PDF (déjà il m'a fallu aller sur
"tous les fichiers" pour le dégriser) il me sort une usine
à gaz dont voici quelques détails.
- Il commence par m'ouvrir une fenêtre "importer de la
vidéo" me demandant de sélectionner si ladite vidéo
est sur mon DD ou déjà "déployée" sur le web.
(Mon fichier PDF n'a rien de vidéo, c'est une image fixe, nom
de xxx).
-Si je continue, il me demande "comment je veux la
déployer ?". 5je ne veux rien déployer, je veux juste
importer 2 ou 3 vecteurs et du texte !)
- je lui dis de "l'incorporer dans le swf". Il me demande
comment je veux incorporer la vidéo. (C'EST PAS DE LA
VIDÉO, t'es sourd sale bête !!!)
- je lui explique que le "type de symbole" est graphique
(j'ai le même résultat si je mets clip) et il me demande
le codage.
- si je décoche "coder la vidéo" il refuse de
continuer, et si je le coche, il m'importe une espèce de jpeg
atroce, pixelisé à mort et inexploitable (tout du moins
pour l'usage que je compte faire).
Donc ma question est "est-ce que j'ai raté un
épisode ?" (oui, plusieurs, certes, mais de là à
changer complètement l'histoire, faut pas abuser) et la
suivante c'est surtout "comment faire pour importer convenablement
mes fichiers PDF qui ne comporte que quelques logos en vectoriel et
du texte, et le tout fixe fixe fixe, rien à voir avec de la
vidéo ?"
En attendant, je ré-installe Flash MX pour avancer un
peu, mais je ne peux pas croire qu'une fonction primordiale soit
supprimée, comme ça, sans remplacement.
Os court !Is that really the end, doc ?

Flash CS3 now crashes randomly after 0-30 minutes
Hello,
I've been using flash CS3 for years without problem.
Since the beginning of nov.2010, it crashes after some time of use. More precisely the toolbar disappears, then reappears, some GUI elements blink. It's not related to a specific user action. When this happens, closing flash is difficult (the window remains here). When switching to another app, some Flash parts remains. The graphical memory seems saturated. Launching another app is met with a window error message. A windows restarts becomes necessary.
This problem arises only in Flash, and with no other apps from CS3 suite.
2 colleagues of mine has the same issue, also in the last weeks (= nov 2010). We work in separate places. We didn't exchange files.
We are on Win XP Home Edition, Dell computer.
They have more recent PCs than mine (which clearly meets the CS3 requirements), with enough memory,etc..
One colleague has reinstalled winXP. The problem arised again, but I don't know when. He also tried CS4 and CS5 and had the same problem.
Today he un-installed all Adobe products with this utility: http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs5clean.html.
After this hour of uninstall process, he reinstalled Flash CS3 and used it without network/internet (no funky updates): The problem was still here.
Does anyone has an idea?After desinstalling Avira Antivir (and installing another antivirus software), the problem disappeared.
Just disabling Antivir is not enough.

Problems doing copy/paste from Flash to Illustrator
This is a problem I've had since Flash 8: when doing a
copy/paste from Flash to Illustrator (on Windows), there's extreme
degradation of the artwork, sometimes to the extent that no actual
art is even copied. All the curves seem to be approximated with
straight line segments, but at some point it just seems to give up
even trying, leaving an unidentifiable blob for most of the object.
As I said, sometimes it doesn't even copy anything at all -- all
that shows up after pasting into Illustrator is an empty group.
The weird thing is that this process worked fine in Flash MX
2004. What could possibly have changed? I was sure with CS3 it
would be fixed, but it wasn't. I haven't tried Illustrator CS4 yet,
but copying from Flash CS4 to Illustrator CS3 produces the same
problem.
I've seen a few other reports of this problem in other
forums, but I've encountered it on every install of Flash and
Illustrator I've tried (admittedly, all Windows machines, but three
or four different ones, both XP or Vista). Can anyone here confirm
that this problem exists or doesn't exist on their computer? To
test it, create a piece of art with plenty of curves and several
colors in Flash, then copy and paste it into an illustrator
document.
If this problem is as widespread as my experience seems to
indicate it is, why hasn't it been fixed in two major revisions of
the software? Is Adobe even aware of it? If not, how can I let them
know? I'm getting majorly sick of having to deal with it.
Illustrator used to be a much larger part of my animation process,
but now I can't use it how I really want to because of the bad copy
and paste functionality.
-DavidHi,
The integration between Flash CS3 and Illustrator means you
can copy objects from Illustrator to Flash and i think if you copy
from Flash to illustrator or Photoshop, you would not get a good
results.
You can solve your problem by exporting your Flash work as
.AI.
Your idea about the ability to copy from Flash to Illustrator
is a good idea although Illustrator can not read some of the Flash
imported information correctly. But it is still a good enahcement
idea. There is a link where you can add suggestions but I do not
remember it and I am replying using mobile, so my browsing
capabilities is limited.
I will try to post the link here when I got to my back normal
connection
Thanks alot!! -
Illustrator CS2 ITA & fonts list problem
Hi!
I've a BIG problem with ILLUSTRATOR CS2 (ITALIAN VERSION).
So, fonts are not displayed in the font list in the character palette.
I tryed to repair but the problem remains.
Any idea?
I've also Ps CS3 & Acrobat Reader 9.1 on WinXP SP3
HELP ME PLS!
Thx
Ciao!Clear out any instances of AdobeFnt.lst files. On next startup, they will be rebuilt. Before you do, get rid of any fonts you don't currently need, especially poor quality free fonts. Some of them contain incorrect contours or other damaged data and will kick your system in the teeth...

File format differences between Illustrator CS2 and CS3
Does anyone know the difference between the file format of Adobe Illustrator CS2 and CS3? Is there a document that documents this? Can someone send a link? The reason I am asking is that I have written a plug-in which saves the current CS3 document back down to CS2 so that users who are still using Adobe Illustrator CS2 can open it. However, if the same document is opened by a CS3 user, what objects, constructs or data structures are likely to be lost because the file has be converted down to CS2? Most things seem to be retained and I have yet to find a problem but if yo save manually from CS3 to CS2, Illustrator puts up a warning stating "Saving to a legacy format may cause some changes to your text layout and disable some editing features when the document is read back in". Does anyone have any more detail on this?
Thank youThere are new features in CS 3 as opposed t CS 2 and the text engine has been improved some what in CS 3. If you have text on a path that is say curved you are going to see a loss in the spacing and way it is oriented. fixed in CS 4.
I forget some of the new features in CS 3 what was not a feature in CS 2 will be flattened when saved back.
Or the feature will simply not be available. -

Thank youThe AI File Format is not publically documented, as far as I know. I'm sure there are plenty of differences between CS2 & CS3's file formats, but you're not likely to find anything official on the subject.
What you lose saving back you're more likely to get help on, assuming someone's actually investigated this. I haven't, unfortunately. I wouldn't mind knowing either if someone has information on this. -

Adobe Flash CS3 detected a problem and has to be closed.
Hello,
I'm using Flash CS3 for a month, but the problem is that
since a week ago, flash CS3 stops working after 5 minutes of use.
So today I've downloaded the test version (30 days) in
another PC, but even with this other computer the software doesn't
works and has to be closed.
So that's not because of my computer. It's a more general
problem.
Did it happened to one of you? DO you know if flash CS3
doesn't work for everyone right now?
Do you know how to repair this kind of problem? I'm very
desperate and I really need to use flash. I don't know what to do.
Thank you very muchThere could be any number of items causing this. First off is do you have an active internet connection? If so have you tried rebooting you computer?

Problem displaying dynamically loaded text in Flash CS3
I created a Flash CS3 application that does not display
dynamically loaded text (from internal AS3 scripts) on 3/6 of my
client's computers. All computers run IE 6 and Flash Player 9. I
cannot replicate the problem on any computer in my department. The
problem seems to be related to Flash Player 9 or a browser
setting/IT restriction. Has anyone encountered this? If so, have
you found a solution?
If I cannot find a solution, then I will need to almost
completely redo the application.
One slightly insane idea I have considered is to, if
possible, convert dynamically loaded text to an image real-time. Is
that possible?
Btw, I have created a font in my library. Should I try
manually embedding the font from the Properties menu and selecting
all characters?
Thanks in advance.yes, even though you may be using a font from the library,
you still have to specify that each text field that uses that font
embeds the font, and you'll need to select all characters(well not
all, unless you require all the different scripts of the world -
upper-case, lower-case, numerals and punctuation usual suffices).
I bet if you checked, the computers where the font did not
appear did not have the font on their system.
Good luck
