Big Sur (macOS 11) update for Adobe Captivate (2019 release) is here!
Greetings all. I am always looking for resources and things to learn from. I have read some articles recommending books and unfortunately some that seem really interesting I haven’t been able to find, but I will continue to look. Thought I would pose the question here. What are some good resources that you recommend? They don’t have to specifically be direct to eLearning or Instructional Design, but they obviously can. But if there is something that relates and you feel […]

Intro This article is written as an answer to a question on the forums: Drag&Drop with Advanced Action For quiz slides it is possible to show different Failure messages based on the attempt number. That functionality is not available for Drag&Drop slides. As you can read in the thread, another user posted a solution using the Object actions which are executed after each drag action. I posted some comments about the limitations of that solution. In this article the described solution is […]
We’ve had several queries on our Forums on installing the new and text-to-speech voices. Smitha, our documentation lead, has written a detailed blog post on the steps to be followed for downloading and installing the text to speech voices in Captivate (both NeoSpeech and Loquendo voices are covered). An excerpt is below, but I’m sure even the Windows users will find the full article useful. >>Excerpt from Smitha’s blog>>> Troubleshooting tips If you do not find the voices listed in […]
Text to Speech,Captivate 5,TTS,T2S,Speech Management,Loquendo,Neo Speech Text to speech was introduced in Captivate 4 and I am sure many will have used it to generate professional narration audio instead of the manual narration to generate high quality learning content. Text to speech does the same functionality in Captivate 5 as it used to do in Captivate 4, i.e. it converts the text to speech. The distinctive part being that it has quite a number of enhancements to make it even […]

adobe captivate 5,adobe e-learning suite 2,rapid e-learning,captivate 5 forums Adobe Captivate 5 is giant leap in the rapid e-learning authoring paradigm.

Got 4 minutes to spare. I’ve uploaded a short and to the point video overview of Text-To-Speech using Adobe Captivate 5. It includes a demo of the new French, German & British English voices as well as a step by step walk through of the simple process of adding TTS elements to your Captivate projects. One of the most exciting aspects of Captivate 5’s TTS handling is the support for non-included voices. We know that people are trying to localize […]

People often ask me about Captivate file sizes and how to optimize the learner experience accessing online content. The crux of the question of course is how can i make playback start right away and keep size small enough that it downloads smoothly on the learners’ computer. It’s actually a lot easier than you might think. I’ve posted a short video below (available along with many others on YouTube’s Adobe eLearning Channel as well) that demonstrates how I easily shrunk […]
Take a moment and think about the eLearning content that was generated last year- – honestly, did you not create more courses with audio narration last year? My customer interactions definitely indicate that this is the case. And the single biggest reason is Captivate 4 voices. The NeoSpeech text-to-speech (TTS) feature really touched a chord. Many Captivate customers use TTS as the voice in the final published course. These folks have figured out how to use the dictionary to customize […]
