2. Importing Slides

Why import slides?

Before you jump into creating video, it is important to have slides that introduce the topic. The slideshow that precedes the software demonstration is the perfect place to add an agenda, a process flowchart, and important background information for the end-users.

Importing Slides into Adobe Captivate

While you can make slides from scratch in Adobe Captivate, the editing functionality is a bit cumbersome. Importing slides you've already created in Microsoft PowerPoint is a much faster and easier way to add slide content.

This video tutorial will show you how to import your PowerPoint into Adobe Captivate.

Note: If the video is blurry, please make sure you are viewing it in the highest quality possible in the video player settings.

Be sure you use the Redwood style template for your PowerPoint.

Then, import your slides into a Adobe Captivate. When you are finished, be sure you save your Adobe Captivate project. Then, complete the Google form below to confirm you have completed this Module.
