SWF file size larger with CS3?

[xerbutter]

Has anyone else noticed that SWF file size has increased when compiled with Flash CS3 instead of Flash 8?

I just opened up a couple of old Flash 8 FLA's in CS3 and compiled, and on average they're 20% bigger. That seems like a big hit. Am I missing something? It looks like most of the hit comes from graphics not being compressed as much. Should I just compress graphics more in CS3 to get back to the old file sizes?

That seems like a big hit.



of what?

What I meant by that, was it seems like a big penalty to have the SWF file size increase by 20% when using CS3. Am I doing something wrong?
