Render each frame as a single image

Just curious, can flash take each frame and export it out as a image ? In my case, I want to create sprite images for a flashdevelop project using blitting. Of course I know there is a solution for this. like copy and paste each shape into a image editor such as photoshop and turn them into png's. But I am just seeing if there is a simpler means of doing so.

there is an export function with flash too, so if you animate or draw your objects to stage you can export it as in image sequence (file->export->export movie-> jpeg, GIF, png etc).

Check out BitmapData.draw(). You can listen to frame events and programmatically spit out bitmaps from within Flash (draw the stage onto a bitmap, lather, rinse, repeat). Combine this with a PNG encoder and you can automate the entire process very easily.
