Using Imported Artwork > Placing artwork into Flash > Adobe Illustrator files

Flash supports importing and exporting Adobe Illustrator 88, 3.0, 5.0, and 6.0 formats. (For information on exporting Illustrator files, see Adobe Illustrator.)

When you import an Illustrator file into Flash, you must ungroup all the Illustrator objects on all layers. Once all the objects are ungrouped, they can be manipulated like any other Flash object.
