The XML-based FXG export format helps ensure that your rich media application creations are precisely converted and ready for interactive implementation.

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.

Design templates - Save frequently used designs as templates that can help jump-start future projects. Share templates with other members of your design team to improve consistency and increase productivity.

Adobe Swatch Exchange support - Match colors precisely with designs from other Adobe graphics applications via Adobe Swatch Exchange (ASE). Import an ASE file from Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator software or Adobe Kuler, the Adobe color community, to develop compatible designs and jump-start your creativity.
