Send projects using e-mail
You can send Adobe Captivate projects in a variety of formats through e-mail. You can choose to send an Adobe
Captivate (CPTX) file, a Windows/Mac executable file, a SWF file (to bypass many firewall protection systems), or an
XML file (XLIFF file).
1 In an open project, select File > Publish.
2 In the Publish dialog box, select E-Mail.
3 In Project Title, enter the desired filename.
4 In File type, select the type of file to create:
SWF File This option sends the necessary Flash project file to the selected mail recipient.
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.
5 Select Output Options.
Zip Files This option creates a ZIP file containing the SWF file.
Full Screen This option opens the SWF file in full screen mode.
If you select AICC or SCORM options for the project, the full screen publishing option cannot be applied.
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 file so that when you publish your project users won’t receive a Service Pack
2 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 JavaScript 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.
6 The Project Information area displays useful statistics about the project including the size (resolution), number of
slides, audio information, e-learning details, and the playback control assigned to the project. To change any of the
options listed in this area, click the blue text.
To change preferences, click Preferences.
7 Click Publish.
Adobe Captivate builds the project and opens your default e-mail program.
8 Enter the desired e-mail address in the appropriate field and send the e-mail message.
