Question

Can I do Simulation of Captivate 9?

Since I am to give an e-learning presentation for a job interview, I am doing it on Adobe Captivate 9.

Am I able to do a Simulation of Adobe Captivate itself?

Am I able to export this Software Simulation as a .PDF form?

Can this Simulation be part of the overall e-Learning lesson that I am creating within Adobe Captivate 9?

I want to use my professional microphone by using a pre-amp. As long as I plug everything in, Adobe Captivate will know to use the Mic, correct?

Thank you for your help.

Launch two instances of Captivate to create a simulation: one is used as target, the other one to do the job. Works fine.

Form? I don't understand that question at all, maybe a terminology issue. You can create an interactive pdf, but have to know that the one who wants to watch it needs both Adobe Reader AND Flash player, because such an interactive pdf is SWF based.

You can always copy/paste slides to other projects, provided you use the same resolution to avoid decrementing the software.

Difficult to answer your last question, you'll have to try it out.

One thing to note is that I don't believe you will be successful if you try to use Captivate to record the process of using Captivate to record screen activity. I believe that it will gag when you try to do that as only a single instance of the recorder is allowed.

Correct, Rick, thanks for adding that point!
