Adobe eLearning suite consists of a set of products along with Adobe Captivate 4 and Adobe Presenter 7 using which you can create any kind of eLearning courses. With this you will not need any other eLearning tool in your arsenal. But when organizations decide to switch to a new product their foremost worry could be about existing content they have created using other tools. Well you need not worry about losing them. You can still use them inside Adobe Captivate and other products in eLearning suite.
For example – Files created in Articulate® Presenter can be opened and edited in Adobe Presenter. The original Articulate presentation is never modified; a copy of the presentation is converted and opened in Adobe Presenter. The Articulate assets folder should be available along with the Articulate presentation file. Without the asset folder and its contents, Articulate features cannot be imported into the presentation when it is opened in Adobe Presenter.
Adobe Presenter supports most Articulate Presenter data, including Flash, audio, and quiz information (as long as the Articulate Presenter assets folder is available).
What is not supported –
- The following Articulate Presenter features are not supported: Learning Games, Engage Interactions, Insert Web Object.
- Adobe Presenter does not support all Articulate Presenter question types. Unsupported questions are not imported during the conversion process. A detailed log report (ConversionLog.log) is generated at the end of the conversion process and provides details about the conversion, including an dropped questions.”
For complete details visit Adobe Presenter 7 help files. This is how you can do it –

I have been comfortable with Adobe items beginning from adaptation 5 of Flash under Macromedia. I keep on getting entranced by the constant progression of the Adobe Suites. I have been into eLearning for certain years. I will in general utilize open source items at whatever point conceivable. Be that as it may, I stay to be intrigued by the intelligence offered by Captivate and Flash ActionScript. Intuitiveness – I accept is the core of educating and learning. What’s more, presently I see the advertisements about Adobe’s eLearning Suite. I didn’t yet attempt this new suite. Be that as it may, I am sure it will be superb. I plan to get an opportunity to test it sooner rather than later.
I have been familiar with Adobe products starting from version 5 of Flash under Macromedia. I continue to get fascinated by the continual advancement of the Adobe Suites. I have been into eLearning for some years. I tend to use open source products whenever possible. However, I remain to be impressed by the interactivity offered by Captivate and Flash ActionScript. INTERACTIVITY – I believe is the heart of teaching and learning. And now I see the ads about Adobe’s eLearning Suite. I did not yet try this new suite. But, I am confident it will be excellent. I hope to get a chance to test it in the near future.
