Hello,

Welcome to Adobe Forums.

Adobe Presenter 8 produce .SWF and .PDF (Publishing to Connect is also an option)

To view .SWF you need Adobe Flash Player and for .PDF you need Adobe Reader or Acrobat

JAVA is not needed to view Adobe Presenter published output

Thanks,

Vikram

Hi, Vikram,

Thanks a lot for your reply.

Yes, it is not needed to view Presenter published output located in my PC.The output can be viewed in a PC without JAVA installed.

Then I upload the Presenter published output to a LMS platform, and publish it as a learning course.

When I try to open the learning course in the LMS platform, the error message appears which is either "JAVA is needed" or "Error on page".

Is the error message due to the LMS platform?

But, how does Presenter output files commuincate with LMS system? Isn't it through Java coding?

Best regards.

Hello,

Might be a possibility that your LMS need JAVA to show the output (Any plugin working on LMS)

LMS output mainly consist of HTML, Javascript and Adobe Flash Content.

Thanks,
