Communication Server.
When you export video clips with streaming audio in FLV format, the audio is compressed using
the Streaming Audio settings in the Publish Settings dialog box. For information on audio

JPEG Sequence and JPEG Image
The JPEG export options match the JPEG Publish Settings options with one exception: the
Match Screen export option makes the exported image match the size of the Flash content as it
appears on your screen. The Match Movie publishing option makes the JPEG image the same size
as the Flash content and maintains the aspect ratio of the original image.

PICT (Macintosh)
PICT is the standard graphics format on the Macintosh and can contain bitmap or vector
information. Use the Export PICT dialog box to set the following options:
Dimensions sets the size of the exported bitmap image specified in pixels. Flash ensures that the
size you specify always has the same aspect ratio as your original image.
Resolution sets the resolution in dpi and has Flash automatically calculate width and height
based on the size of your drawing. To set the resolution to match your monitor, select Match
Screen. Bitmap PICT images usually look best onscreen with 72-dpi resolution.
