Captivate without Flash?

Hi all,

I understand that Captivate generates Flash output (.fla / .swf); however, for users who don't have Flash on their computers at all, is there any way to view Captivate content? If I insert a SWF into a PDF, can that be viewed without Flash?

I know the simplest answer is "download Flash player," but that is not always an option in the environment I'm working in.

Thank you!

    Hello,

    You can insert a CP-created SWF into a PDF. The Adobe Reader has to be present and since version 9 it has Flash Player incorporated, so your SWF will play all right provided the user do have at least Reader 9.

    Another possibilitiy is to produce an EXE-file with Captivate, no need for Flash Player nor Reader in that case.
