re: Export SWF from Freehand

A scripter on a Freehand list points out that indeed it is possible to
script SWF export from Freehand with the following code.

save as Flash in file "filename"

A quick glance at MM applescript documentation on an older CD resulted in
the following;

> ACCESSING FREEHAND 8'S NEW EXPORT FILTERS
> Several new formats are not included in the freehand 8's AppleScript
dictionary.
> To access these formats, refer to the following syntax examples:
>
> tell application "freehand 8"
> activate
> save as "Flash" in file "filename" --exports a Flash 2 SWF file.
> save as "DataTypeDCS" in file "filename" page 1 -- exports a DCS 2 file.
> save as "DataTypeFreeHand7" in file "filename" -- exports a freehand 7 file.
> save as "DataTypeIllustrator7" in file "filename" -- exports an Adobe
> Illustrator 7 file.
> save as "DataTypePhotoshop4RGB" in file "filename" -- exports an Adobe
> Photoshop 4 RGB EPS file.
> save as "DataTypeQuarkEPS" in file "filename" -- exports a Quark EPS file.
> end tell

I've yet to check newer versions, so I don't know if they contain more
tidbits.
