Text spacing issues Adobe Captivate 8

Hi all,
I've already taken this to the adobe help chat and they haven't been able to help me.
I recently updated to Adobe Captivate 8.0.1.242 and it has caused me no end of trouble with spacing.
Basically if I have a text caption with multiple font sizes it causes in a responsive project the spacing to go haywire. Meaning the preview and the published output looks entirely different, the spacing looks to be around 2 or 3 (rather than 1.5) which crops off big chunks of text.
If I roll back to the previous version of the programme, I do not get the same issues.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
M

Remove imsmanifest catalog tag text 'Adobe Captivate Course'

Greetings,
After I've using elearning suite 6's multi-scorm packager (would love for this to be a part of basic Cp6, nuther topic),
I see that in the imsmanifest for the root folder (zipped) there is a <catalog> tag with the text 'Adobe Captivate Course'. Please see pic.
I don't remember seeing an opportunity to edit out this text and replace with a more accurate description. Of course I can edit it out of the imsmanifest.xml file, but I'd rather see where this can be removed/edited up front.
Can someone explain what I'm missing or why this is happening?
Much Thanks,
k

Adobe captivate 7 mixed hebrew and english text displayed wrong

hello all,
when I create captions with mixed Hebrew and English characters or numbers, the caption is displayed all mixed up.
Is there a fix for this issue ?
If not, is there a simple workaround?
thanks,
Hanoch

Hi
I hope you have upgraded to the latest captivate version 8.0.1.242. If not please follow the steps mentioned on this post Adobe Captivate Help | Adobe Captivate 8 patch. Make sure to remove layouts and preferences as mentioned in the link.
There is an issue with text in case of multi-hierarchal bullets but apart from that other things should work fine. You might just have to change some position parameters to fix the results. Can you please share the project, so that I can reproduce the issues at my end. My email address is [email protected] . You can send it via email or drop box.
Captivate responsive output works for multiple browsers. Please check the link Tech Specs - eLearning, mobile learning & Training Software | Adobe Captivate 8 for details.

Adobe Captivate 6 Spanish text to speech

Hi we are using Adobe Captivate 6. We were wondering if there is an option to get text to speech in Spanish language. We are currently using NeoSpeech which provides German, French and English (couple of accents).
Are there any alternatives to this?

Hello,
Welcome to Adobe Forums.
Spanish Text to Speech is not available as an add-on for Adobe Captivate.
You can purchase Spanish Voice from NeoSpeech.com and Loquendo.com.
Thanks,
Vikram

Hi
We are looking for a software which converts SWF to MP4, we found many software which does the job but issue is file size is not optimize.
We found Adobe captivate 6 which gives optimum quality with good output but thing is we do not have batch process in captivate 6. so we request you to create a plugin or give a best option which have batch render quality and optimize in file size,

Captivate is e-learning development software not a dedicated video convertor, you are better off trying something like Adobe Media Encoder or Super.

Can Adobe Captivate free trial version convert Japanese text memo

Can Adobe Captivate free trial version change Japanese sentence (put in slide memo) into Japanese voice
after pushing conversion button ?
perhaps text to speech engine converts alphabet letter into voice, so I tried to change Japanese letter into conversion , after converted there was no reaction, but I put an English letter and converted , English voice was occurered.
Is this right?
sorry to have writted bad English expression . Please someone to anser what I know, thank you.

Hi Picyan,
The text to speech functionality in Captivate only supports English at this moment. More languages will come later but I don't know when Japanese will be available.

Adobe Captivate 5- Color Issues (excel 2007)

Please help me!
I am using Adobe Captivate 5 and am recording 2007 excel. When I have completed the movements, the images and background appear to be fine.
As soon as I preview or publish the colours of the cells and objects (e.g. highlight box) get mixed up:
Either the colors start moving into different areas, or dissapear or randomly move as the screen moves (This image was taken when the screen wasn't moving). Is this a software bug? Anyone had the same issue? Any way to resolve this?
I appreciate the help!

Hello,
Could you check the video quality of the slides? You find this in the Properties panel of the slide, region General. Perhaps it is set to 'Low, 8-bit. Try to change to one of the other settings. On the Captivate blog you'll find a great explanation about this Video Quality. Have a look at:

Using Adobe Captivate 6, how can I replicate the PPt text animations wherein I can float in timed?

Using Adobe Captivate version 6.0, I want to be able to do what I always could in PowerPoint - in a bulleted list, cause each bullet to float (or other animation) into place, establish a timing for each line.

To do this in Captivate, you need each bullet to be a separate text caption. You can then apply fly-in effects and time them to coincide with the voiceover. There's no way to make the bullets fly separately in if they are all in the same text caption.

Issue with using Adobe Captivate Review 2.0 software

I have a file that is about 102Meg published that I am sending out for review. I am posting it to location that everyone has access to on our network. The issue I am having is kind of odd. If you install the Captivate Review software on a new machine you can review the .crev file add comments and save just fine. If you close the programm you can not get the software to open the file again. If you go to a different machine and install the software you can review the file again. We are running 32bit Windows XP with duo cpu @ 2.66Ghz and 4 Gigs of Ram on our engineering computers. If we publish a small file size it does not seem to be an issus. Has anyone else run into this issue?

No, but I would really appreciate it if you could report this to the Adobe Captivate team using the web address I have included below.

Issues with Mac Version of Adobe Captivate 6

I am having issues with Adobe Captivate 6 for Mac. I am missing functionality. Specifically the advanced actions dialog box. I get "null" value in all the fields in the dialog box. Also when I open captivate the welcome screen is blank. I tried uninstalling and re-installing but I am still having the same issues. Am I missing something on the install? Has anyone else experienced these issues?

Hi,
Did it worked fine previously? Can share some more information like your Mac version?
Can you share the screenshot of the problem screens?
Also, Try to follow these steps, to verify in case your Preferences have not gone corrupted--
1) Close Captivate
2) Launch Finder
3) Go -- Go to Location
4) ~/Library -- Go to Preference>Adobe> Adobe Captivate 6, Rename the Folder to 'Adobe Captivate 6_Old '
5) Relaunch Captivate and verify if thing improve.
Thanks,

Adobe Captivate 6 Issues

I recently had a virus and my Adobe Captivate 6 applicaiton had to be removed and reinstalled.
1. When I attempt to open the application now, I recieve a pop up box that says, "Some Adobe Captivate features such as screen capture and audio may not work as intended without Administrator privileges. Right Click the Adobe Captivate icon, and then chose Run as Administrator to launch Adobe Captivate in Administrator mode." This was not something I was required to do in the past, why is this step necessary?
2. When I attempt to use Themes, I am being informed that all overrides to object styles and properties will be lost. Do you want to continue? This step is resulting in my text captions appearing with black triangles on each corner and in some instances a black background with greyed out letters. How do I set this option keep ovverides to object styles?
3. How do you change a set as default theme?
4. Is it possible to restore cached files that were previously worked on? If so, how?

You probably had Administrator access set up on your PC previously and Captivate was set to launch with Run As Administrator privileges. Now you don't for some reason. Perhaps whoever did the work on your computer has not set it up the same way this time, in which case you will find Captivate will not work properly.
As far as restoring files from the cache, see this thread:
