Importing text captions

You can import text captions from a DOC file. First, you export the text captions from your
Captivate movie. Captivate creates a DOC file that preserves all of the formatting from the text
captions. While the text captions are in DOC format, you can make text and formatting changes
in a word processing program. Then import the text captions back into the Captivate movie using
the steps below.
Note: If you export text captions to a DOC file, that DOC file can only be imported back into the
original movie.
