Adobe Captivate 2017: How To Add Closed Captions To Videos?
Adobe Captivate 2017 has come up with a new feature, adding closed captions for videos.
In Captivate, we can insert video either as an Event or Multi-Slide Synchronized Video. To add closed captions, we need to insert video as Multi-Side Synchronized Video.
Let’s see the steps to add closed captions to a video:
Step 1
- Go to Media tab in captivate ribbon and select Video option from the drop down list.
Step 2
- Now, select the Multi-Slide Synchronized Video.
Step 3

Step 4

Step 5

Step 7

Step 8

Step 9
- You can also format the text by clicking on CC settings button.
Step 10

Step 11
- Here, you can see a checkbox, Show Closed Captions. Unless you check this box, the closed caption feature is not enabled in the published course.
Step 12
- Finally click on Apply and Close to save your CC settings.
Hence with these improvements in Adobe Captivate 2017, you can customize the closed captions to your videos and make it a fully responsive e-Learning course.
