Hi there!
I'm creating a Flash site, and all the graphics are imported from Illustrator.
Also, in the Illustrator file, there are some Phtoshop graphics with shadow
effects on it.
The problem is, that when I import the .ai into Flash, a pretty strong colour
change occurs: everything becomes lighter. And the shadow, wich is black in
Photoshop, turns white in Flash!
Is there a way to solve this problem? I searched the net, and some people say
it's an OSX thing, wich is pretty strange, because Mac is an obvious choice for
loads of designers.

I've attached an image preview.

Thanks in advance!

make sure your images are set to 72dpi in photoshop and illustrator. you may also want to try not exporting color profiles.

Make sure your color space is RGB first off, then assign the "sRGB.." color profile to your image prior to importing it into Flash. You shouldn't see a color shift then.

Thanks for the anwsers!
However, the weird thing is, when I pick one of the photoshop graphics, asign
the profile to it, and import it into Flash, the colors look fairly good. BUT
when I import the complete Illustrator file with alle the graphics in it, I
still get the color shift. I can now put all the graphics in the flash file,
one at a time, but I think thats not the most easy way to do it..

That's odd. I just tested it with an .ai file and got great results. Did you go
to Edit>Assign Profile and select "sRGB IEC61966-2.1" to accomplish this? Is it
just vectors in the file or are there also raster images? If there are raster
images, they'll more than likely need to have the same thing done prior to
importing them in Illustrator.

Yes, I asssigned the profiles to the ai file, like you said. The ai files does
contain raster images (from different psd files), so I openend them one at a
time and assigned the sRGb profiles to them aswell..
