About recording and creating new projects
You have many options for creating new projects; you can record a project containing almost
anything on your computer screen. Adobe Captivate makes it simple to record an application, a
specific-sized project, or a full screen project. You can also create a scenario simulation project by
using a project template to ensure consistency or by following the Project wizard. Alternatively,
you can start from a blank project, or by importing image or PowerPoint files.

Adobe Captivate makes creating a new project easy. When you record an Adobe Captivate
project, you use the application or website you want to demonstrate as you would normally—by
moving the mouse, using the keyboard, and navigating through menus. As you work, Adobe
Captivate captures the onscreen action automatically, or you can capture screenshots manually.
When you finish recording, you can set options and add components such as text captions, audio,
images, and highlight boxes. In addition to beginning a project by recording, you can create new
projects by following the Project wizard, or using a template.

About creating scenario simulations
You can easily create scenario-based or interaction-based training content, such as content for call

wizard or choose to create your project from a simulation template.
