Freehand vs Illustrator

I'm a total newbie to vector art, but i've heard that it works better with flash, and i was wondering witch program would be better for making art for flash. Illustrator or Freehand? Thanks in advance.

Freehand is a Macromedia product, so they are made to work together. I have never used it though.

On the flip side, however, I have never had any problems importing Illustrator paths into Flash, so I don't see the need to use Freehand.

I know it doesn't answer your question, but maybe it will help.

:: are you kidding me? Freehand is a bad *** tool. I've been using it since version 3.0. Illustrator has some great productive and creative tools not found in Freehand but when it gets down to RAW path editing deep path control/mult-page design for magazines and any other project and Flash support Freehand easily rocks Illustrator.

With Freehand artist can layout 100 pages if they like all in one document and still get deep Postscript support where you can write PS code right within Freehand and watch it draw. Play with it first and you'll be hooked!
