Hey Paul, when did Adobe change the publish protocol and package the PDF file with the published file? Does this work for an URL link to a file? For forced download as well?
I’m not sure if it was 2017 or 2019. I noticed that I no longer had to package the PDF after publishing sometime with 2019 release but it may have come out earlier. It only puts the PDF in the library if it’s a local file. I don’t believe it downloads PDFs from the web.
I have several cases where i add additional files, like documents or templates that the student can download. I point to local files, but I used to have to change the local file url to be just the name of the document and I had to package it after I published my file. I am going to test this now!
Yup, that’s what I used to do as well. Captivate 2019 will do this for you now.
You just made my life so much easier! Thanks!
