1 Open Adobe Captivate.
2 On the Start page, click Record or create a new project.
The New project options dialog box appears.
3 In the left pane, click Other.
The Other Project Type window appears on the right.

Adobe Captivate uses a default capture area of 640 x 480 pixels. To change the size, select User defined (custom)
and type new numbers in the Width and Height text boxes, or use the arrows to enter new numbers. You can also
select Preset size, and then select a commonly used size from the pop-up menu.
Note:
In general, projects larger than 800 x 600 pixels may not stream well over dial-up connections.
6 Click OK.
Adobe Captivate is displayed in Storyboard view, and the Open dialog box appears.
7
Navigate to the first image you want to include as a slide in your Adobe Captivate project.
Tip:You can create multiple image slides by choosing multiple images in the Browse dialog box.
8
Select the image and click Open.
Note: If the image you selected is larger than the project size you specified, a dialog box appears and gives you the
choice of cropping or resizing the image. Cropping trims parts of the image (from the sides) so that the image fits into
the project. Resizing keeps the entire image, but scales it smaller so that it fits into the project.
The image you selected opens as a slide in Edit view.
