ADOBE FIREWORKS

What's new in Fireworks

Improved performance

Work faster with significant performance enhancements, including greater control over pixel placement of design elements, improved file opening and saving, updated symbol operation, and quicker bitmap and vector operations.

Pixel-precise rendering

Keep designs crisp on destination screens of virtually any size with advanced rendering. Improved definition means objects in vector and bitmap modes appear sharper, even when converted from one mode to the other.

Workflows with apps built using Flash software

Export objects, pages, or entire documents to applications in the Adobe Flash software family to develop interactivity. The XML-based FXG format helps ensure rich application creations are converted precisely.

Extensibility improvements

Customize scripts for exporting, batch operations, and FXG formats with the expanded extensibility API. Increase productivity and control by specifying client-specific output formats in automated batch processing.

"Fireworks CS3 is at the core of our design process. With its ability to robustly work with bitmaps and vectors, including Photoshop and Illustrator imports, we have a full range of options for creating immersive and beautiful prototype designs."

—Lance Christmann, Chief Interface Designer, effectiveUI

"Macromedia Fireworks 8 is critical for us to complete our new Internet portal and for maintaining the sites our students complete for nonprofit agencies and community organizations. Fireworks 8 enables us to quickly create high-quality images, move vector and bitmap files between other graphic programs, and build upon our design comps with ease."

—Rick Reece, Instructional Technology Specialist, Broward County Schools.
