Embedding Assets

Many Adobe Flex applications use external assets like images, sounds, and fonts. Although you can reference and load assets at run time, you often compile these assets into your applications. The process of compiling an asset into your application is called embedding the asset. Flex lets you embed image files, movie files, MP3 files, and TrueType fonts into your applications.

This topic contains an overview of the process that you use to embed an image or a SWF file as an asset into your application. For information on embedding fonts, see Using Fonts.
