Unable to insert Captivate file into InDesign

Report · Jul 22, 2019

Thank you for looking into this question.

I'm trying to insert the HTML5 file published by Captivate 2019 into InDesign by using the CircularFLO pulgin.

However, I received this error regarding the HTML5 file published by Captivate 2019.

Hi Lim

You are the first to try adding Adobe Captivate 2019 content to fixed layout EPUB using CircularFLO. As long as the code is valid HTML5 there should be little problem to add using CircularFLO's web code tools but we will need to test before advertising this feature!… Obviously there is something not quite right yet so thanks for bringing it to our attention.

Published HTML5 output is a rather complicated folder, which is really like a website. InDesign is not meant to insert websites. I used InDesign many years ago when SWF was the default output, and it was a breeze to insert SWF published Captivate files into a digital InDesign document. Now, with the HTML5 it has become to me at least impossible. I would publish the HTML5 Captivate output, upload it to a webserver and point to the URL.
