Troubleshooting exporting projects to Flash
Two problems can occur when exporting Adobe Captivate projects to Flash:
•
To support exporting of projects to Flash 8, the RDMFISTUB.DLL file was provided in Macromedia Captivate
1. This DLL, which was manually copied to the Captivate installation folder, is not removed when Adobe
Captivate is installed. If you encounter an error message while exporting the Adobe Captivate project to Flash,
locate the DLL, move it to another folder, and copy RDMFISTUB8.dll from Program Files\Adobe\Adobe
Captivate 3\ to the same location.
•
After exporting Adobe Captivate output to Flash, the required files are missing.
•
You should first save the project in Adobe Captivate, and preview or publish the project before exporting the
project to Flash. This ensures that all the files are exported.
Troubleshooting JavaScript that does not appear
JavaScript does not appear while previewing Adobe Captivate output.
If the Execute JavaScript option is selected in the Project end options of the Project Preferences dialog box, Adobe
Captivate may not display an error message when the JavaScript is previewed. This is because the Show Borders
option as set to On (enabled), by default. When this option is On (enabled), Adobe Captivate creates multiple
SWFs—skin SWFs and content SWFs.
To preview JavaScript, set the value of the Show Borders option to Off (disable it) in the Borders tab of the Skin
Editor dialog box.
