I have a Captivate 7 licence through my company. We need to do some onsite recordings for the client using a trial version of Captivate 8 that we need to install on the client's computer.

I'll then take the files and work on them away from the client site. The plan is to use Captivate 7, but I can't find any confirmation that I can edit files recorded in Captivate 8 using Captivate 7?

You can't open or edit Captivate 8 files in Captivate 7.

However, there is a workaround...sort of...

If your screen captures are all separate images on slides, just export all background images from the Library to a folder and then import these images into a Cp7 project of exactly the same dimensions as the original Cp8 project.

If you are doing video captures then you'd probably be importing the final published video files anyway.
