Inserting images as slides

You can insert existing images (JPG, JPEG, GIF, PNG, BMP, ICO, EMF, POT, or WMF) as slides in Adobe
Captivate projects. Image slides can be useful in many types of projects, especially in overviews of a product or
website. Image slides can also come in handy when you want to use an image, such as a company logo, as an intro-
ductory slide for a project.
To insert an image as a slide:
Open an Adobe Captivate project.
1
2 Select the slide directly before the location where the new slide should appear. (For example, if you want to
insert the image as Slide 6 of your project, click the slide currently labeled Slide 5.)
3 Select Insert > Slide > Image Slide.
The Open dialog box appears.
Select an image from the list or browse to a new location for a different image. Click Open.
(Optional) You might be asked if you want to crop or rescale the image.
This option centers the image and crops the edges of the image that do not fit into the capture size area.
Crop
This option resizes the image to provide a good-quality resized image that fits the capture size area.
Rescale
The image slide is added to the project.
Tip:You can create multiple image slides at one time by holding Shift or Control while selecting images in the Open
dialog box.
Tip:You can also create multiple image slides by selecting multiple images from Explorer and dragging them to the
Filmstrip in the Edit view.

To create a watermark image:
