Publishing projects
Project files
This option sends the Adobe Captivate project file to the selected mail recipient.
XML File
This option sends the XML file as an attachment to the selected mail recipient.
Note: Instead of publishing an Adobe Captivate project as an XML file, you can export the project content to the XML
format and use the XML file to edit and localize to the required language. You can then import the localized XML file
to the relevant Adobe Captivate project.
6 Select Output Options
Zip files
This option creates a ZIP file containing the Flash (SWF) file. (A program like WinZip can be used to
open the files.)
Full screen
This option opens the Flash file in full screen mode.
Note: If you select AICC or SCORM options for the project, the full screen publishing option cannot be applied.
Note: If you select the full screen option, Adobe Captivate generates two HTML files to accommodate the Windows
XP Service Pack 2 release.
Note: Use both HTML files with the SWF so that when you publish your project users won’t receive an SP2 warning
message. You should link to the HTML file with “fs” added, for example, “myproject_fs.htm.” The HTML file with “fs”
automatically links to the second HTML file, which, in turn, plays your project.
Export HTML
This option creates a standard.js file that helps embed the SWF file into the HTML file.
Flash Player Version
Adobe Captivate generates the SWF file in the Flash version that you choose.
7
The Project information area displays useful statistics about the project including the size (resolution), number
of slides, audio information, eLearning details, and the playback control assigned to the project. To change any of
the options listed in this area, click on the blue text. To change preferences, click the Preferences button.
8 When you are done, click Publish.
Adobe Captivate builds the project and opens your default e-mail program.
9 Enter the desired e-mail address in the appropriate field and send the e-mail message.
Publishing an AICC content or a SCORM package
Adobe Captivate lets you create an AICC content or a SCORM package, publish the content package to an LMS,
and have the LMS download/install the content package without manually having to uploading it (or having to
inform the LMS administrator about your new or updated content), all through a single click.
