I want to create animations in flash, and then export a sprite sheet with the sprites and a xml(or another format) with information about how to “cut” and move the sprites.
I don’t know where to start, use some library for reading swf in c# or java? try to export using AS3 inside the swf?
I know others had than this kind of tool (castle crashers, super meat boy)

just had a great answer to this on Gamedev.stackexchange.
Basically, check out Grapefrukt. It can build a sprite sheet out of your Flash animations or it can export the images and the movement information as XML.
