I'm having some problems when I import an Anime Studio SWF into Flash, namely the text created in Anime Studio does not import (except for the first letter). For example I have a name tag that says "Betty" but when I import it into Flash, it just says "B". Anyone know a fix for this.
Normally I would use the loadMovie command in Flash (which works much better with Anime Studio SWFs) but for what I am doing I cannot do this. Thanks for any help.

I have a few tips for this.
+ Reduce points on text - Too many points can confuse AS SWF output and hence you get a bad export.
+ Do the above and use a Flash editor to add the text in manually. Only problem then is that if you use any camera movements, it's going to make life harder.
+ Trace the text with a single line and use the line width to achieve text thickness.
Thats all i can think of. Otherwise, yes, the SWF output is a big bo bo.

Thanks for all the helpful suggestions
Thanks everyone for your help. I got it to work by unchecking the create one fill box as was suggested. The render is a little angular but it was easy enough to fix by hand and it certainly beats having to make it all from scratch. Thanks for all your incite.
