Since Photoshop is such a popular image application, and because working with masks is such an important Photoshop skill, let me say a few words now about importing and exporting Photoshop layer masks into and out of Fireworks CS3. With Photoshop you can mask images using either Layer masks, or Grouped layers. Fireworks will let you successfully import images that employ layer masks from Photoshop without losing the ability to edit those masks back in Fireworks. These layer masks from Photoshop will be imported as bitmap masks. Fireworks masks can also be exported to Photoshop. They will be converted into Photoshop layer masks, so the key information here is you'll want to work in Photoshop with Layer masks if you want the best interoperability with Fireworks. If these masked objects include text and you want to maintain text editability in Photoshop, you'll need to select the Maintain Editability Over Appearance when exporting from Fireworks. I should point out also that in the Adobe Fireworks CS3 documentation, it states that, If the text is used as the masked object, it's converted to a bitmap and is no longer editable as text after it's imported into Photoshop. And that'll wrap up this section of the tutorial on Pages, Layers, and Masks. In this section, you've learned how to work with Fireworks Pages, how to work with Master pages, so that you can duplicate or repeat content onto all of your pages. You've learned how to export these pages to HTML so you can basically take your Fireworks pages and convert them into pages of a small Web site. You've learned also how to work with Layers, and about Image Masking. You've learned how to work with bitmap and vector masks, as well as how to edit those masks, and also how to import and export your masks back and forth between Photoshop CS3 and Fireworks CS3.
