I have these Illustrator CS3 files with vector text and I don’t know if FlashCS3 has a class that can load Illustrator files?

what is the best/easiest way to load the text from each file while maintaining each of the text object’s properties (ie coordinates, font size, font color, etc.)?

i was thinking i might have to use extendscript to extract each font object’s properties into some kind of file and then have FlashCS3 load that file and generate the text locally.

i would ideally like to avoid this as i am already having enough problems getting flash to advance from one frame to the next (WHY WONT YOU WORK NEXTFRAME()?)
