to reduce file size with a minimal loss of information. Because JPEG compression eliminates data, it can achieve much

the quality.

JPEG Quality

Specifies the amount of detail in the exported image. The higher the quality, the larger the file size. This

option is dimmed if you choose PNG (Lossless) for Compression.

Resolution

Specify the resolution of bitmap images in the exported SWF. Choosing a high resolution is especially

important to allow viewers to zoom in on pixel-based content within your exported SWF. Choosing a high resolution
can significantly increase the file size.

Export to Flash video

Create FLA files for the web

When you export your InDesign document to FLA file format, you can open the file in Adobe Flash® CS5 Professional
to edit the contents. Exporting to FLA in InDesign CS5 format replaces XFL export in InDesign CS4. Use the Flash
authoring environment to edit or add video, audio, animation, and complex interactivity.

If you want to export the InDesign document directly to a format that can be opened directly in a web browser, use the
SWF format instead of FLA. See “
