About this book

With extensive tools for editing bitmap and vector graphics, Fireworks makes collaborative site design much quicker with improved integration of the Studio products. Graphics in Flash or Dreamweaver libraries can be quickly edited in Fireworks and instantly updated throughout your website. Extra photo-editing tools, Auto Shapes, Live Effects animation, and additional anti-aliasing options provide more creative scope and developers can extend Fireworks image-editing capabilities into Dreamweaver.
