<p><strong><a href="http://www.9to5mac.com/Flash-html5-canvas-35409730">Flash CS5 will export to HTML5 Canvas</a></strong></p> This looks pretty awesome—Illustrator CS5 and Flash CS5 can export to a new “FXG” format, and Adobe are providing a JavaScript library to load that format via Ajax and render the contents (including Flash animations) in a canvas element. Could be great for displaying newspaper infographics on the iPad. <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/adobe">adobe</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/canvas">canvas</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/flash">flash</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/fxg">fxg</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/html5">html5</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/illustrator">illustrator</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/ipad">ipad</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/iphone">iphone</a></p>
