Creating a manifest file
Adobe Captivate contains an important e-learning feature that creates a manifest file. If you want
to package an Adobe Captivate project to be an e-learning course that can be administered and
launched from a SCORM 1.2 or 2004 conformed LMS, you need a manifest file.
The manifest file that Adobe Captivate creates is named imsmanifest.xml and contains references
to all content resources. The XML file uses predefined XML tags to describe the package
components, structure, and special behaviors.
