All, I recently switched from Flash 8 Pro to Flash CS3 Pro.
I just noticed today that my published SWFs and EXEs are considerably larger when I publish them with CS3 than they were when published from F8, even though the FLAs are the same. In other words, I took an FLA that was saved as a CS3 file. When published, the SWF was 980kb, and the EXE was 3,423kb. I saved the FLA as a Flash 8 file (since it doesn't us AS3 or any CS3 functions), republished, and the SWF was 879kb and the EXE was only 2,434kb. That's a pretty big difference (~30% for the EXE), for exactly the same functionality. I can live with the Adobe bloat in the CS3 IDE, but I didn't think that it was going to cost me in terms of the resulting SWF filesize. Has anyone else noticed this? Am I making a mistake, or missing a publish option? Many thanks in advance for your advice and insight.
