I have a single cp file with an intro slide, and 20 true false quiz slides. There are 20 jpegs, each about 40k. The cp file is 2.5 meg. When I publish it, it grows to 7.3 megs. Why???

I created the quiz by insert a quiz slide, which inserted a quiz slide and a results slide. Then I simply did insert/quiz slide for each question slide I wanted. I didn't copy/paste slide since I found that this make the cp file a lot bigger.

Also, do you know why Captivate doesn't publish the frameset html file needed when you turn on AICC tracking. Articulate does.

    Check your publish settings. Sounds like you have image quality set to high.
    Drop it down a little.

    You may find (needs experimentation to confirm) that importing your images
    as PNG instead of JPG is more efficient. This lets Captivate handle the
    compression for you.

    Reduce the size of the images by using some photo editing softwares preferably Adobe Photoshop
