Yes, I've also noticed this. The CS3 projector is a bit bigger. But it's really not all that odd since it has both the AS3 and AS2 virtual machines inside.

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.

Cheers,
Matt Stuehler
