Hi,

I am trying to import a recorded PowerPoint that has been converted into FLV into Captivate.  When I preview the file in Captivate, words on the PPT slide are cut off.  I am using Captivate 8 and Windows 2013.  I have imported recorded PPTs before into Captivate and did not experience this problem.  How can I fix this issue?

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Windows 2013?? Do you perhaps mean PPT 2013?

Was that file converted with an older version of Captivate or with Captivate 8? Why not publish to MP4?

Yes, I meant PPT 2013.

No, I have only been using Captivate 8 for this project.  I have always published to FLV. 

Once I am done with the Captivate file and it is good to go, I upload the file into our LMS for training and tracking purposes.

FLV is an old Flash-based movie format. It is not meant at all to be used for training and to report to a LMS. For that purpose you need to publish to either SWF or to HTML which both support interactivity and reporting to SCORM compatible LMS's.

I don't think PPT2013 was capable of publishing pptx-files, if my memory is correct? So that means you cannot import the PPT with High Fidelity checked.

How is the cptx-file looking when you preview in Browser?
