Adobe Captivate 2019 can create online courses which can be viewed on a variety of devices, including desktops, iPads, and smartphones. Captivate 9’s newest feature allows you to publish your course as an Android/iOS app (App).
The eLearning courses can be published to HTML5, SWF, Video, Executable, App, Adobe Connect, and Captivate Prime, along with other formats.
1. Publish to Computer:
We have three choices in this category – HTML5 / SWF, Video, Executable.
Let’s look at all the fields in detail.
Project Title: Enter the project name in the Project Title area.
Location: Select the desired folder location where you want to publish the course.
Zip Files: When you need to export a single output file to upload to a Learning Management System, this option can be used.
Fullscreen: If you choose Fullscreen, the published output will be shown on the full screen.
Export PDF: If you want to save the course as a PDF, select the option “Export PDF”. When a learner does not have access to the Flash Player in their browser, this choice is useful for sharing content through email or other means.
Force re-publish on all slides: For Example, you have created a project and published the output. If you make a change to a slide after a certain amount of time has passed and want to publish all of the slides (even if you only made changes to one), select “Force Re-Publish All the Slides.”
Scalable HTML content: The published SWF will always be resized according to the browser’s size if you select the Scalable HTML content option.
Seamless Tabbing: If only Internet Explorer is used, the eLearning course will be delivered in a seamless manner.
Resolution: The course dimension is shown.
Slides: The total number of slides in a project will be shown.
Slides with Audio: How many slides in the project have audio will be shown.
Audio Settings: By clicking the Custom connection, you can edit the audio. Until publishing, you should adjust the audio quality.|
Display Score: If there are any assessments in this project, this choice appears as “yes”. Analyze the options and select only those that are required.
Mobile Gestures: The Mobile Palette window will appear on your computer when you choose Mobile Gestures. On mobile devices, you can choose to play or pause the course or video by selecting this option. We can switch the slide to the right or left using navigation.
Geolocation: If you want to monitor the learner’s location, check this box.
Size and Quality: By dragging the slider to the ‘Custom’ choice, we can change the image context, audio, JPEG image, and SWF file quality.
Accessibility: You can create output that is compliant with Section 508 for users who have visual or hearing impairments, mobility impairments, or other types of disabilities.
eLearning Output:
Choose eLearning Output if you want to publish the course to an LMS. When you allow reporting for this project, it will show you a list of standard LMSs from which to choose; you’ll see Moodle, Internal Server, and other hosting platforms among them.
Choose a regular LMS from the list, such as SCORM 1.2, SCORM 2004, AICC, or xAPI.
Enter the course identifier, title, and definition that the LMS will use for reporting in the manifest. Make sure there are no spaces in the course identifier.
Status Representation:
Incomplete — > Complete
Whenever a learner begins a course, the status in the LMS is Incomplete. The learner’s status changes to Complete once the course is finished.
Incomplete — > Passed/Failed
If the learner Exits the course without completing it, it will be marked as Incomplete. The learner’s status will be shown as Pass or Fail if they complete all of the slides and the final quiz.
Success/Completion criteria:
In this category, we have two views – User Access and Slide views and/or quiz.
In Slide View, you can set the completion criterion to 100% or enter the number of slides the learner should complete in the course.
In Quiz field you can find three options
Data To Report:
If we select Percentage then the result might be shown as a percentage or a number of points.
Output Format:
We have two options for output here: SWF and HTML5. You have the option of selecting both or any of the options.
HTML5:
HTML5 is the most recent version of the “Hypertext Markup Language,” which is used to build web pages. By converting your courses to HTML5, you can keep all of your content in one place and when we publish a course in HTML, it will open on an iPad or other mobile device.
SWF:
Creating vector graphics and 2D animation uses SWF format. When we publish a course in SWF, it will open on PCs.
