6 Open the XML file, and translate all terms specified in the <source> </source> tags inside the <trans-unit> </trans-
unit> tags.
For RTF data (such as text captions), the actual translatable text is present within <g> </g> tags. To change the text
to a different language, change the font-family field in css-style attribute, and add the corresponding character set.
Instead of exporting a project to XML, you can publish the project you want to edit and localize. You can then send
the content in the XML format to an e-mail address. The XML file is sent as an attachment to the e-mail address. You
can also compress the XML file and send it by e-mail.
Ensure that the Adobe Captivate project file is edited before exporting the XML file.
Note: The Info, Blabber, and Skin tool tips are not exported to XML because such information is stored in Flash
Authoring Files. After localization, separately create Info, Playbars, and Skin tool tips for the relevant localized version
of the Adobe Captivate project.
Import project content to XML
Note: After translating the content of the XML file to the required language, import the updated XML file into Adobe
Captivate. The project content then appears in the required localized language.
If you want to rerecord the project, ensure that you do so before importing the XML file.
1 In an open project, select File > Import > From XML.
2 In the Open box, enter the filename of the XML file or navigate to the XML file.
3 Click Open.
The XML content is imported into the Adobe Captivate project. A dialog box appears, confirming that the XML
import was successful.
4 Click OK.
Note: If the XML file was sent to you by e-mail, open the e-mail message and save the XML file in the required
directory. Translate its contents to the required language.
Import and export project preferences
You can export preferences set in one Adobe Captivate project and import them into other Adobe Captivate projects.
Preferences are exported as an XML file with a .cpr extension. When this file is imported into another Adobe Captivate
project, the preferences defined in the file are set.
Note: All preferences in your current project are modified according to those set in the preferences file.
Export project preferences
1 Select File > Export > Preferences.
2 In the File Name field, type a name for the CPR file.
3 Click Save.
Import project preferences
1 Select File > Import > Preferences.
2 Select the CPR file that contains the preferences you want to import.
