The term “Flash” has two connotations: Authoring environment Rich media file produced in the authoring environment Four main file types FLA : editable source document (pronounced flaw) SWF (Small Web file pronounced swif): for Web viewing only (can’t be edited) EXE : stand alone and executable projector file on Windows FLV : flash video file for long movie and for fast streaming to a large number of users (require the Flash Communication Server on the server side) Flash File Types What is “Streaming”?

Editor's Notes
- #3: Streaming is a Web technology which allows a multimedia file to be played under a browser without waiting for the entire file to be transferred from the Web server. The advantage is that users can view the multimedia contents instantly upon the connection to a Web site.
- #4: PNG and SVG are better because they support lossless compression – graphic files can be compressed to small sizes and yet maintaining high quality. However, not every browser can support the new type of graphic like SVG.
