PDF of Captivate 5.5 does not...

Hello

In the past two years, I developed about 15 presentations for our customers using Captivate.  They all worked fine until recently.  Today I dug to see if I could figure out what's the scoop.  Looks like it's boiling all down on the fact that they do not have the latest version of 'Adobe Reader' and 'Flash Player'.  With the latest installed versions, here's what our customers (and myself) get:

captivate.jpg

If I uninstall the latest and best and re - install Adobe Reader 9.5.0 then try the production.  Works very well as he has always done.

Please tell me there is a better difficulty then decommissioning.

Thank you very much!

If this was published and a million times before you answer, I'm sorry that I missed it.  I look around a bit and have not seen a fix.

  • Captivate 6.0 does not correctly open the linked PDF

    Hello world

    We Captivate 6.0.0.199 and create a project that will be delivered off-line (whether as html or exe).

    Under the project, there is a button that connects to an external PDF file.

    Result: At the launch of the published project, the PDF file does not.

    I tested 2 attempts:

    #1: I entered the file name of the "naked" just pdf file the action field of the button ("zertifikat_de.pdf") leaving aside any path. After the publication, I copied the PDF in the same level as the other files (on my local hard drive).

    Result: the application exe (or html) started locally does not open the pdf file (nothig happens).

    #2: I used the fileselect box to enter the location of the my pdf file; Thus Capivate will register in the action box this:

    'C:\Users\ast\Documents\LBET\translation\43_Captivate\zertifikat_de.pdf '.

    Which such publication Captivate me to copy the files in publication record.

    Yes, I copy the pdf file in publication record.

    Result: The published application opens a file pdf but THE WRONG ONE! It refers to the location of the original source file where cptx and the original pdf is. When I delete the pdf file, the published application IS NOT open a pdf file.

    It seems that the published application is waiting for my development path on the end-user macnine. It's strange.

    We make this application to run e.g. on CD or in any arbitrary folder.

    How can I me Captivate for this?

    THX.

    Please, update as soon as POSSIBLE to 6.0.1.240, you're always on a first version very buggy. The free patch is here for more than a year (October 2012). Not quite sure, but there are a few problems with pdf and files paths resolved if my memory is still OK.

  • Captivate 6 opens does not after installation

    I installed Adobe Captivate 6 for a user, and it does not open. The Green splash screen comes up and nothing else happens. Executable file of the application indicates to use 25% of the CPU, but the program never ends opening. I tried uninstalling/reinstalling program and she is always the same, never completely opening past the Green splash screen. System resources should not be a problem because this PC has a processor Intel i5 (Quad 2.5 Ghz) and 4 GB of RAM. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello

    I think that you might have installed some fonts of others on your computer. Go inside the folder C:\WINDOWS\Fonts and copy and paste all the fonts into the folder fonts (create a folder of fonts on your desktop).

    Then try to remove all fonts inside: C:\WINDOWS\Fonts. You will not be able to remove all the fonts, but try to remove as much as possible.

    Then run Captivate6. If 6 Captivate launches successfully then you can place all the fonts from there fonts folder backup.

  • Captivate 4 SCORM does not, exit button does not

    Hi All-

    I hope someone can help me because I'm at the end of my rope with Captivate.

    I have a project that is finalizing, I try to publish it on our LMS and it is not followed correctly, it is the initialization of the LMS and it records a "Started" status, but I can't get the completion status to work properly.

    I don't really want to include a quiz at the end, so these are the settings I used:

    LMS Standard: SCORM 1.2

    Status report: complete/incomplete

    Report to the LMS as: Percent

    Choose Report Data: Access user only

    Level Reporting: Interactions and Score

    I tried every possible setting I can think of and the bloody thing won't work!

    Someone please help me, because I don't want to have to start this course with Articulate!

    Nathan,

    When you publish Scorm zip captivate 4, makes a folder called SCORM_support, to the extent that there is a file of javascript (scorm_support.js), the 2nd or third line is set to 0, but in reality, it must be set to 1, has to do with what version of Scorm you publish. 0, the default value is actually from 2004.

    I know that you have chosen Scorm 1.2 in your captivate, but for some reason, as this setting is messed up when published and sets the value to 0;

    This

    var g_nAPI = 0;

    Should be

    var g_nAPI = 1;

    for scorm 1.2

    If you're still having problems, I've seen other instances where the quiz score is one incomplete, I usually put my percentage to 0 to ensure that does not hold up to the completion of the course.

    Hope that helps.

  • Java script not working not not in 1 pdf, but the same script does NOT work in other

    Dear Experts,

    I have a problem with java script.

    I created 2 PDF files with the same name under the names of form and shape.

    I wrote a javascript script and the script seems to work in a (Demand2.pdf) and DOES not work in others (exemple.pdf).

    The link for Demand2.pdf is

    Can you please guide me on this.

    Thank you very much

    BookFans

    Hello

    The second file (exemple.pdf) is saved as Static. The script changes the visual appearance of the form (show and hide objects). This requires the file to save dynamic PDF format. This option is available for registration - as the dialog under the file name.

    Good luck

  • Political image when I create a PDF file: warn and continue does not work

    Hello!

    I need to create a PDF file with many images, and I need to know if all this image is low-resolution (< 300 dpi). I tried to use the policy of the image in the PDF settings but it does not work, because if I choose "Warn and continue" (if the resolution of an image is < 300 ppi, warn and continue), the program creates the PDF file but do not get hot me and I see no message... and I'm sure there are bad pictures because I wrote a check to test with 72 dpi images.

  • Button (with PDF revealing layer by reversal) does not not in web browsers...

    Hi guys,.

    I can't get the buttons to work in web browsers.

    Here is a picture of what I implemented in Acrobat Pro XI:

    http://i.imgur.com/8UqVJpN.gif

    First of all, I imported a layer (what is a PDF file). Then, I made a button which when hit with the mouse displays any PDF document.

    This key works when the PDF file is displayed in Acrobat Pro XI but not in Google Chrome, Edge or all other browsers.

    Is that all that I'm missing?

    Thank you in advance for your help!

    You can use show/hide field measures. They work in Chrome, but I'm not on Edge. Buttons can be used as layers, but importing a PDF file as the icon of the button and make it read-only.

  • JavaScript in Captivate 9 project does not run

    I tried for hours to get little JavaScript inside an Adobe Captivate 9 (published in SWF and HTML5), deployed to a web server public project, to run. For help troubleshooting, I wrapped in various stages of the script with console.log ("status"); and even those who are not running.

    A demonstration project file is located here: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/6787201/Test%20Interaction%20Data%20HTML5/Test-Interac tion - Data .cptx

    If you look at the JavaScript window, you will notice there is a function call to sendInteractionData();

    This is a custom function to trigger the data in various Captivate variables in a Google spreadsheet, I wrote. It is contained in the index.html page I change after publication. I tested this feature and it works when the values are explicitly defined and sendInteractionData() is called from a static web site... but when it is embedded in the code JavaScript of Captivate, no luck.

    If you are interested, here is the code I have insert to support the sendInteractionData() function:

    Configuration section

    Paste the URL of the WEB service (obtained after you run the command POST > DEPLOY AS WEB APP) in the variable below!

    var WebServiceURL = "mywebserviceurl";

    Do not edit below this line, unless you intend to change the inner workings of the script

    Declaring variables

    var FirstName;

    var name;

    var Email;

    var attribute;

    Function to send data to interaction in the Google spreadsheet. This function must be called by the Captivate player after setting the variables above.

    function sendInteractionData() {}

    Get and set the relevant data from the Captivate player

    FirstName = window.cpAPIInterface.getVariableValue('cpFirstName');

    LastName = window.cpAPIInterface.getVariableValue('cpLastName');

    Email = window.cpAPIInterface.getVariableValue ('cpEmail');

    Attribute = window.cpAPIInterface.getVariableValue ('cpAttribute');

    Send the data to the Google map via AJAX call

    request = $.ajax({)

    URL: WebServiceURL,

    type: 'post',

    data: "FirstName =" + FirstName + "& LastName =" + LastName + "& Email = ' + Email + ' & attribute ="+ attribute.

    });

    Reminder Manager who will be called to success

    Request.Done (function (response, textStatus, jqXHR) {}

    Save a message to the console

    Console.log ("wrote interaction data sheet: FirstName =" + FirstName + "& LastName =" + LastName + "& Email =" + Email + "& attribute =" + attribute + "/ / Message: success!");

    });

    Reminder Manager who will be called if an error occurs

    Request.Fail (function (jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown) {}

    Logs the error in the console

    Console.Error)

    "Interaction data could not be saved: FirstName =" + FirstName + "& LastName =" + LastName + "& Email = ' + Email + ' & attribute = ' + attribute + ' / / The following error occurred: ' +"

    textStatus, errorThrown

    );

    });

    }

    PS - declaration of a Google spreadsheet should really be standard features now...

    Thanks for your help.

    You really use the listener attached to the window module ready event to ensure that the API is present.

    var interfaceObj, eventEmitterObj;

    window.addEventListener ("moduleReadyEvent", function (e)
    {
    interfaceObj = e.Data;
    eventEmitterObj = interfaceObj.getEventEmitter ();
    initializeEventListeners();
    });

    function initializeEventListeners()

    {

    If (interfaceObj)

    {

    If (eventEmitterObj)

    {

    window.cpAPIEventEmitter.addEventListener ("CPAPI_VARIABLEVALUECHANGED", function)

    {

    sendInteractionData(); }, 'cpAttribute '.

    );

    }

    }

    }

  • After a crash during the installation of Captivate, the installer does not "initialize" and the installation process stops. Any suggestion?

    I bought a few days ago from "Captivate". I received the Web address to download the program and the activation number. I downloaded the program (OK), began the installation program (OK) and has received indications that the decompression process was OK. Then the installation has begun, and I was asked to introduce the activation number (OK). After that, a bar showing the progress of the installation was shown on the screen. The bar stops at 2%. I waited more than 20 minutes and not seen any progress. So I decided to start the "task manager" to see if the process was active. I have windows 7, so I pressed ctrl-alt-del and the message (2-5 min later) who was not able to start the Task Manager. I waited longer (more than 1 hour), and since the progress of the installation the indicator was still 2% and I still couldn't activate the Task Manager, I restarted the computer.

    I then tried to reinstall the program. After unpacking, I get the message: "could not initialize installation. Please download Adobe support advisor to detect the problem. I followed the link to find out that the program is no longer available.

    What should I do?
