PLEASE RECONSIDER FUTURE DEVELOPMENT OF FREEHAND!
If you can't do that then at least give us some HONEST answers and your reasons for not doing so...
I simply cannot understand why you ADOBE won't listen to the many numbers of designers still using freehand.
you have been trying to convert us and make it harder for us to use freehand for years now, and still we decide to use freehand...does this not tell you something about how strongly we as freehand users feel towards this magnificent product?
You have isolated a large section of designers around the world by trying to force them into using a program that quite simply isn't good enough yet! the world would be a much happier place if it were illustrator that had been stopped in it's prime and freehand had been allowed to grow!
Believe me, and I think I speak for tens of thousands of fellow designers! illustrator is just not good enough for those of us who like to work creatively and efficiently! so why should we start crawling again...when we had already learned how to run!
PLEASE ADOBE, IF YOUR OUT THERE...LISTEN!
THE OPPRESSION MUST END! AND DEVELOPMENT MUST BEGIN!
many thanks...hope to hear from you soon...
loyal freehand user,
