I experienced the same pixel shift problem and got around the problem by doing a copy and paste to the clipboard of my computer instead of saving and importing.

Subject: FLASH: Pixel shift on import

Has anyone experienced this problem;
When importing a Photoshop image into Flash 4, the image imports shifted
down and to the right by a couple of pixels which cuts off the bottom
and right side and leaves a white line on the left and top of the image.
To test this just create a black rectangle in Photoshop with a 2 pixel
white border and import it into Flash. I have tested PNG and Pict
formats and they do the same thing.

I posted this question eariler (sorry for repeating myself) but I just
want to see if any one else is having this problem before I reload a new
copy of Photoshop and Flash onto my computer.

Thanks James. I tried this but it will not copy the alpha channel I need to bring in transparency into Flash. I talked to Macromedia Tech Support on the telephone and they were able to recreated the same pixel shift but they had no solutions. This is a bug with Flash 4. Currently, I am importing my irregular shaped images and buttons a little oversized with an alpha channel to cut out the background. All my other images are cut and paste.
