The appearance of objects may differ between applications, however, because Fireworks and FreeHand do not share all the same features. For more information, see Working with other vector graphics applications.

The procedures provided in this section apply not only to using Fireworks with FreeHand but also to using Fireworks with other vector graphics applications, such as Adobe Illustrator and CorelDraw. For more information, see Working with other vector graphics applications.
