Play your animation and watch your shape roll. This method does have some disadvantages. First, all your images from Word are imported as bitmaps, not vector images. Second, you re animating frame by frame. As a result, your file is larger and downloads slower. If you use this method for just a small animation, however, it beats learning how to use a fancy 3-D program (and paying for it, too). Test the results and see whether it works for you.

As we discuss in Chapter 13, you can make your Flash movie appear in a Web page by choosing both the Flash and HTML formats in your Publish Settings and then publishing your movie. Flash then generates the HTML code (like the code in Figure 13-4) for a Web page. This Web page appears to contain your Flash movie when you view the Web page in a browser. To make the Flash movie centered in that Web page, you just need to add a little bit of extra code to the HTML page, which you can do with a text editor. To add the HTML code for centering your Flash movie in the Web page, follow these steps: 1. After choosing the Publish Settings for Flash and HTML (as we describe in Chapter 13), choose File.Publish. Flash creates a Flash Player (.swf) file and a Web page (HTML) file. 2. Start a text editor or an HTML editor, and open the HTML page within the editor.
