CP file to PDF question

i have a 20-slide CP project that I'm trying to export

to a 20-page PDF, but I keep getting a single page PDF with the SWF embedded.

i tried a simple two-slide project with just text and it worked – I got a two-page PDF.

Any ideas to troublesboot? File has click boxes and hovers, nothing complex.

Help!

    Thanks for your reply, Lieve! I am attempting to get the 20-slide project as an interactive 20-page PDF, and I am getting a single-page PDF with the SWF embedded. Is it not possible to get it to a 20-page interactive PDF?


    No, that is not possible. The whole interactive output is in one Flash movie embedded in the pdf. Slides are just there to make editing easier, for the user slide transitions can even be totally invisible. Captivate is not PPT.

    I believe you'll need to go to File > Print, select the output your looking for, and save it as a PDF.

    Thanks. Yes, I'm doing that. But it's all compressed to a one page PDF With the SWF embedded. I was under the impression it would export to a 20-page PDF that behaves like the CP file. I swear I used to be able to!

    Hmmm, I've never seen that. I've always had the SWF embedded when I publish, or the various print outs from Print. Hope someone can help!
