Setting the reporting preferences

Check Enable reporting for this project.
3

In the Alternate Reporting dialog box, provide the server settings:
5
• For Acrobat.com: If you have signed up, specify the username and password.
If you are new to Acrobat.com or if you lost your password, click the respective links which take you to
Acrobat.com website where you can register or retrieve your password.
• For Internal Server: Specify the path to the web server as provided in the following example:
http:\\<ip address>\internalServerReporting.php
The internal server can be a web server of your preference.
internalServerReporting.php is the sample PHP that is available in the Adobe Captivate installation folder. You
can either use it or create your own server-side file, for example a PHP or ASP to write files to the server. Ensure
that the server allows writing to files.
Enter the details of the institution that conducts the assessment, department, and course.

Submitting the results
1 After the users complete the quiz, they reach the results slide and then click Post Result.
2 At prompt, the users specify the names and e-mail addresses, and then click Send.
Note: Then name and e-mail address are not verified.
Depending on the reporting preference that the author has set, the results are sent to Acrobat.com or internal
3
server.
Viewing the results
Use Adobe Captivate Quiz Results Analyzer for viewing and downloading the results.
Though the user submits the quiz result to Acrobat.com, you cannot directly view the results. If you are using an
internal web server, manually retrieve the report. Adobe Captivate Quiz Results Analyzer lets you overcome these
constrains.
Adobe Captivate Quiz Results Analyzer and Offline reporting
Adobe Captivate Quiz Results Analyzer is an AIR-based desktop application that allows you to analyze quiz results
that are posted on Acrobat.com or internal server.
Use this tool to:
•
View results and generate reports
•
Save results to a local folder so that they can be viewed in offline mode
