Summary


In this chapter, we have introduced the four steps of a typical Captivate production process. We toured the application's interface and learned how to customize it to fit our needs. Thanks to the workspace feature, we were able to save our customized interface as a new workspace in order to reapply our custom panel layout anytime we want to. Finally, we toured the sample applications used in this book, which gave us a first look at the rich set of features of Captivate.

In the next chapter, we will concentrate on the first step of the Captivate production process: the capture step. We will discuss various techniques used to capture the slides and discover the inner working of Captivates' capture engine. We will also discuss tips and tricks that will help us make a critical choice: choosing the right size for our project.
