Adding text captions
Text alignment on custom text captions
Sometimes text on custom text captions can appear out of alignment. To solve this problem, you must set the left,
right, top, and bottom margins.
Each of the five text caption styles requires different margin settings because text appears at slightly different
places on each text caption.
The margin settings are stored in a text file with the extension .fcm. You can use Notepad or WordPad to create
or edit FCM files.
To change text alignment on a custom text caption:
1
Using Windows Explorer, navigate to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Captivate 3\Gallery\Captions. All of the
text caption BMP and corresponding FCM files are located in this folder.
2
Right-click the exact FCM file you need to edit, and select Open with.
3
Select Notepad or WordPad.
4
Edit the following values as necessary:
•
Left Margin is the number of pixels from the left side of the bitmap to the text.
•
Right Margin is the number of pixels from the right side of the bitmap to the text.
•
Top Margin is the number of pixels from the top of the bitmap to the text.
•
Bottom Margin is the number of pixels from the bottom of the bitmap to the text.
5
(Optional) If necessary, you can edit the MarginX and MarginY settings. This can be important if you are
adding captions automatically.
•
MarginX is the number of pixels horizontally from the nearest corner to the tip of the caption callout.
•
Margin Y is the number of pixels vertically from the nearest corner to the tip of the caption callout.
Note:
The nearest corner is identified in the file open in Notepad or WordPad under “Corner.” For example,
Corner=right, top.
6
From the File menu, select Save.
A dialog box may appear, asking if you want to replace the original file. Click Yes.
7
Close the program (Notepad or WordPad).
