Readers will also learn to use third-party libraries and create Adobe Air applications. This Classroom in a Book also covers the improved text-handling tools that are new to Flash Professional CS5. The companion CD provides users with all the sample files they need to complete all the projects.Note from the publisher:FREE Adobe Flash Professional CS5.5 updates are available for this title.
