Adobe Captivate file size

• Huge Captivate files sizes

  I have been using Captivate to push an audio recording of a presentation in the presentation slides. The audio is in the form of a large mp3 file. When adding audio, I selects the option to split on several issues and align all the slides in the right part of the audio. If I need to change the time drag or audio (which often happens because captivate seems to be rather buggy when split the single audio track into one for each slide) the Captivate project file as a result of the rockets in the size of the file. I think it's because he keeps a copy of all audio used in Captivate, IE a copy of old and new together, mp3 stream before and after editing.
  
  If this happens a few times the file size increases accordingly and for a presentation of 50 min, I'm looking at 1.3 GB project files. These are clearly pushing my (powerful dual core, 2 GB of RAM) funds up to the limit. I tried to remove all the elements of the portion of the library, but this makes no difference to the size of the projects.
  
  To illustrate the problem to my friend, I have EVERYTHING deleted from the library, has added 1 new blank slide and deleted all other slides. This project had the air is like a brand new white. When recording (such as a new cp file) the project was infact 1.16 GB in size. Huh?
  
  Is it possible to delete the files of projects other than the library captivate?

  Yes, I am using captivate 3.0, which is where I met the problem. I tried the technique ' save, save under ", which slightly increased the size of the file. The technique of the 'new presentation, copy paste' worked for me - 1.3 GB-> 0.3 GB.

  Just open 2 instances of captivate, enjoying a nice big project at fault and the other open a new blank project. Then copy and paste all the slides of an inot the other. You may need to remove the first blank slide that was already in the empty project. Then save the new project and smiling like crazy in file size!

• Converting PPT to the Captivate file size - why is is on the rise?

  I have Captivate 7-64 bit. I'm trying to convert several .pptx presentations. Each presentation is about 60 MB. Curiously, however, when I convert, they increase in size to 320 MB or something close. A few months back we did this same thing with a presentation of 70 MB, and it rose only 20 MB. Any ideas on why this would be or how to keep it small? I still have audio input and this will make that huge file!

  Thanks in advance,

  Arthur

  The difference between the .cptx and the final output file was negligible - something like 20 to 40 MB. Whatever it is, to work around the problem, now, we simply recorded each slide in the .ppt as a jpg, reduced resolution and quality, then downloaded to them. That, at least, is now small enough so that we can manage it. Still not sure why we can't just import the .ppt himself well that without it increases tenfold and without certain images does not. This conversion of .ppt feature seems useless to me. In doing my research, it seems everyone rally articulate it is the best option for the conversion of .ppt. May be the case.

• Adobe Captivate 4 Quiz (Matching) drop-down list too small font size.

  Hello

  We use Adobe Captivate 4.  Quiz (matching).  Exported to SWF format.

  The drop-down list the fonts are small. We want to use a larger font in the drop-down list, but couldn't find a way.

  Can anyone help?

  Thank you

  Hello

  Formatting of the slides in Question of CP is sometimes a pain. I can't give you a correct answer, but it would be great if you filed a feature request to the team to have more control over the styles used in this drop-down list (the link is on the homepage of this forum). If we are many to demand improvements, fine higher up on the priority list.

  As you've probably discovered, in the properties of the corresponding drop down lists Question slide you can change font color, the font size not. My correct solution is to choose a font that gives the best result, certain fonts really look bigger than the others. This is not always compatible with the styles in the rest of the film, but I fit all of the text in Question slides to this font.

  Regret not to be able to help. Question slides are in the folder, but in SWC format, and I can not open these files, even if I installed Flash CS4. Maybe a Flash-wise guy will appear automatically in to help you.

• Captivate 3 - everyone figured out how to reduce to a CP project file size?

  Greetings,

  I think that this question has been asked before, but I was unable to find a solution to the problem and I was wondering if someone else (a solution).

  Some people called this phenomena "file bloat".

  I'm using Captivate 3. In the process of adding and deleting slides the .cp file gets quite large. I tried to do the thing of "save under...". ». I also tried the unused resources removal (graphics, backgrounds, etc) and save the file again. Nothing seems to work.

  I tried to import a project into an empty project (the application seems to work, but nothing happens). I tried export in XML format and the file will not import (corrupted).

  If someone managed to find an answer on how to remove unused slides/resources of a Captivate project "inflated". Apart from rebuild the project file from scratch is there a solution?

  Thank you

  TPK

  Hello

  The only way I've ever seen a reduction in file size Captivate 3 was by performing the following steps:

  1. Open a second instance of Captivate.
  2. Create a new empty project of same size as the other instance.
  3. Switching between instances, copy slides of the bloated and paste into the fresh.
  4. Save a new and the file size is reduced.
  5. Throw away the old one.

  Note that you will probably need to restore links that you had.

  Just a note special here on one of the things that you have tried. You said that you exported in XML format. I don't think that you can export as XML and then import XML into a new project. I think that the XML export works very similarly to the export of Microsoft Word. Only the exported project he will be able to properly re - import. If I understand correctly, the XML export is designed to Captivate developers who need to locate (translate) their projects.

• File size a massive increase in Captivate 2

  I just finished reviewing a manifestation of the old.
  
  1. the old film, worm 1.01.1418 (42 slides), is 36, 900ko.
  2. the new film, ver 2.0.0 (57 slides), is 338, 638 KB.
  
  Both have audio, notes, text captions, and highlights.
  
  The only big change is that we use the new captioning function.
  
  Someone else has met and solved this problem?
  
  I don't think that I can break it in enough segments without making end users lose interest and I think I have to Snag Screenprints and recreate in Adobe Presenter.
  

  Captivate support found the answer to my problem and it is in the LIBRARY of the current file.

  With the .cp file opens and the LIBRARY pane visible, look at the toolbar of LIBRARY.

  1. Select the tool SELECT the UNUSED ELEMENTS.
  2. THE ITEMS will be highlighted in blue.
  3. Select the REMOVE tool.
  4. prior to the economy, overview of the project (F4) to ensure nothing necessary has been deleted (just a small step paranoia)
  5. close and exit to check file size reduction.

  Reader Digest Version: prior to publication, to delete unused items.

  Note: If you try this and it solves your problems, send praise to Bruce Chizen, CEO of Adobe.

  We strongly believe in for Training Solutions Adobe products (presenter, Connect, Captivate, Robohelp and soon CS3) and encourage us to use throughout our society. When I expressed my frustration of not being able to contact support in due course on this issue, Mr. Chizen came through.

• The maximum size of the Captivate file

  Is there a limitation of file size of Captivate projects or a maximum number of slides that can be included in a project?

  Hi Jay

  I saw some other report that Support Adobe boasts a 50 meg orientation 'Cap '. I have always recommended 50-65 slides as a very broad and general upper limit. That varies of course, depends on several factors. The number of objects on each slide, the dimensions off-brand project, etc.

• Importing video alpha channel: what to export for Adobe Premiere? Reduced file size Important.

  I want to import a small 20 second animation at 1920 x 1080, RGB + alpha superimposed, all less than 5 MB of After Effects in Adobe Premiere. What are my options? Used to be my go-to the file format FLV files. An example FLV pose this requirement would be around 700 KB.

  Export in. MOV with Alpha as a result of this same file 700KB to 950MB (difference of size of files after x 1350).

  Export in. AVI with Alpha translates this same file 700KB to 9800 MB (a x 14000 times difference in file size).

  Export in lossless with Alpha translates this same file 700KB to 1100 MB (difference of size of files after x 1500).

  I surrender all the little animations of 10-30 per project and make them all integrated into Adobe Premiere, so a dynamic link is not practical. This was a nice project of ~ 15MB will now have to be (at least) a project of ~ 20GB. This is not sustainable.

  Any help appreciated, thanks.

  My choice would be Cineform.

  The files will be not small, but it is an unreasonable expectation here, I think.  The size of the intermediaries is not usually something that worry, not only the expected results.

  The update should be available to help, updated. It is available since October 2014.

  Being administrator is not the same thing as Captivate running as an administrator that must be put in place in the menu right click on the shortcut that launches Captivate. You have restricted functionality if this is not done.

  I told you how to clear preferences, with the file Utils. First close Captivate, when you restart CP will create a new preferences folder.

  

  If you have a lot of customization that you will lose when the erasing of the preferences. To keep them, have a look at my blog:

  Captivate 8.0.1 Install? Keep your customization! -Captivate Blog

  Layouts folder is located in the public Documents. It is a copy of the original folder in the gallery. Same thing with the Interactions.

• Is it possible to turn the dilemma 2 projects (.2qn file extension) in Adobe Captivate 8 projects? I tried to save the embarrassing situation in a text file, but Captivate wouldn't import correctly.

  Is it possible to turn the dilemma 2 projects (.2qn file extension) in Adobe Captivate 8 projects? I tried to save the embarrassing situation in a text file, but Captivate wouldn't import correctly.

  Hello

  I've never seen such a method. I think you will find that you must simply recreate your dilemma inside Captivate project and forget all means of import.

  The only thing that comes to mind would be to import the project dilemma in PowerPoint. (Assuming that such a thing exists) then import the PPT in Captivate. But you wouldn't be able to make everything connect.
