File Size Compression

Sep 30, 2014

Is there a way to compress a file size for publishing purposes?  A client is having trouble converting a 35MB file from their FTP site.

Hi Derrick and welcome to Heroes,

When you publish a .story file, there is a certain amount of compression that occurs no matter what - and it's also driven by the quality settings you choose when publishing.  

 There aren't any additional methods to compress the file. Is the client having difficulty uploading the published output folder onto their FTP or something else?

Hi Derrick,

It may be due to their overall bandwidth or hosting platform - have you tried uploading it in a few different places to help them determine if there is one element that could be contributing? You may want to check out a few of the free web server options in this article or test on SCORM Cloud which is an industry standard for LMS content.
