Creating A Pif; Organizing Quizzes With The Quiz Manager - Adobe 65029940 - Captivate - PC Using Manual

Note: If necessary, you can create a PIF that packages the Captivate movie output files and manifest
file (with additional files if you are using the SCORM 2004 option) together.

Creating a PIF

Captivate includes support for creating a package interchange file (PIF). SCORM guidelines
recommend, but do not require, the use of a PIF for transporting content packages between
systems. A PIF contains the entire set of manifest and content files (Rdmovie.htm and
RdMovie.swf ) in a single ZIP file.
To create a PIF:
Open a Captivate movie.
1.
From the File menu, select Publish.
2.
Select Flash (SWF).
3.
In Movie Title, enter the desired name, without the file extension (SWF).
4.
In the Folder text box, enter the full path for the folder in which to save the file or click Browse
5.
to locate the folder.
In Output Options, select Zip files and Export HTML. This packages the course into a PIF by
6.
creating a zip file containing the Flash (SWF) file and the HTML file.
Click Publish.
