Parallels & MS Office
Aug 10, 2015

As a storyline developer, I frequently get client files that are in Word or PowerPoint. For those of you who are on Parallels (which I will switching over to shortly) and use this computer for both work and personal use, do you use the PC version of Office or is there any benefit to using the Mac version? I imagine it might be more complicated using the Mac version but thought I'd get input from the group here. :)

Hi Karen
I am on a Mac using Parallels and I found it easier to install Microsoft Suite in the WIndows environment so I am working entirely in WIndows.
Hi Karen,
I have both, but the benefit of installing Office in your Windows environment is when you want to export/publish your Storyline file into Word for client review.
I don't need to do this often, but it does come in handy.
Hi Karen,
If you're going to use Office elements with Storyline (i.e. publish to Word, import from Powerpoint, etc.) you'll need to install the the Windows versions per the system requirements here.
