How to get standard size viewable across different monitor sizes?

Question

How can I get the same view size with media buttons on the bottom ie like full screen across the different size monitors?
im creating a captivate demo.
however the target is
large monitors 21 inch
and different laptop models and screen
size.
I would like the output in as SWF - html.
Ive been playing around with the settings and these are my results:
Setting:Record and Capture area ‘Full Screen’
the result:
looks great on the 21 inch monitor.
the same .html file on the laptop
the result is:
cuts off the recording on the bottom the screen. so you have to use the scroll bars to see the full screen
if I Rescale the Project
from
width percentage:100
Height percentage:100
to:
width percentage:70
Height percentage:70
the result is:
loss of quality on both laptop screen & desktop screen.
If I publish as a Media .exe.
The result is a very large .exe file size  compared to a html file
Any ideas?
thank you

The rule of thumb I always use it to capture the original screen recordings at the same resolution as the lowest resolution device I expect to view the demo.  So if you are doing your screen capture from a 21inch screen but expect people to play it back on 14 inch laptops, find out what resolution the 14 inch laptops are operating at, temporarily change the resolution of the device connected to the 21 inch screen to match the resolution of the 14 inch laptops - record all your screen captures - then change the resolution back to normal on the 21 inch display only after you have finished recording. You then shouldn't have to mess around with rescaling and it should look great on everything!  Work at the lowest common denominator.
