Compressing slide data
Adobe Captivate provides you with the option of compressing slide data that is shared between
slides. This option reduces overall file size and it is the default setting.
Note: In certain circumstances, compressed projects may not appear correctly when imported into
Flash. If you plan to import your Adobe Captivate project into Flash, do not select the advanced
compression option. (Not applying compression, of course, increases the size of your project.)
To compress the time between slides:
Open an Adobe Captivate project.
1.
From the Project menu, select Preferences.
2.
Click the Preferences tab.

Select Advanced project compression.

Correcting colors in slides
In general, color should appear correctly in Adobe Captivate projects. However, there are cases in
which colors may appear inaccurately, such as when the color scheme varies radically between
slides. So if Slide A uses color palette ABC, and Slide B uses color palette XYZ, and the two
palettes are radically different, Slide B might resort to using palette ABC.
