Hai,

Please how I can solve the following problem

1. I cannot insert powerpoint slides into created in n2007 version in extension .pptx. Becuase the .pptx powerpoint control is not coming in dialogue box. The captivate is only showing the .ppt extension. So I have to change the 2007 format into 97-2003 format to copy into captivate 3.

2. I cannot run the shockwave flash output file in real player or in media player after publishing. But I can run .html output format in internet explorer only. After publishing which extension I can run through adobe flash player. Please let me know

With thanks
Pol

    Hi Pol

    Captivate 3 does not support the PPTX format. If you scan the help file that ships with it, you will find the following verbiage:

    Note: Adobe Captivate does not support new file formats in Office 12 like pptx, docx. To import PowerPoint slides created using office 12, save the presentation in an earlier version of PowerPoint before importing it.

    I believe another community expert offered you identical advice about this in a different thread.

    I don't believe Real or Media player understand how to deal with Flash output. Only the Flash player does. The Flash player exists as either an add on (for Firefox and other browsers) or an ActiveX control for IE.

    Cheers... Rick
