Tips for creating flash files
Flash is not ideal for 3D graphics such as those created in MAGIX 3D Maker. You will often find that
you can create smaller files using other formats such as GIF. This is especially true of animations. If you
want to create Flash animations, we suggest:
Step or fade animations produces smaller files than other styles.
Avoid bevels. Some bevels are better than others but typically bevels make files five to ten times
larger.
Use sans serif fonts such as Arial (serif fonts have small features at the end of strokes within
letters).
