I'm creating training material and would hate to buy stock photo's if characters are included with Captivate. However I'd like my PowerPoint themes to be consistent with eLearning modules. Is there a way to use characters from Captivate in PPT?

    I find it's always best just to go to the source...

    The answer is yes you can export the images out of Captivate and bring them into power point but the question is are you licensed to do so.. Any one from Adobe answer this one.

    I'm not suggesting or condoning breaking licenses, but I'm not sure how anyone would be able to trace that if it were done.

    That being said, myself, along with many others just on this forum have been long time users of Captivate long enough to recognize those characters. I am not condoning the misuse either but personally, if I saw the PowerPoint, I would be like "Oh hey, I recognize those guys!" and that would probably be the end of it.

    But it only takes one person who sees and wants to dig further and cause problems to bring it all down.

    It would only take verification by eLearning Brothers on whether or not you or your organization had a current account with access to the content to decide that case.
