After Effects exports the most universal Flash 4 format, and it has the ability to preserve vectors created within After Effects itself or Adobe Illustrator. However, vector animations that use 3D cameras export as rasterized layers, which just goes to show that you can't have everything. The bottom line This may be the biggest update for After Effects yet. The product is still in beta, so it's too early to judge the implementation of 3D, paint, or expressions against the competition, but these major new features are already way beyond what one would normally expect in a debut implementation. This price is valid within 120 days of product release.
All upgrades require previous registration.
