Cannot Export Storyline to Word
Hello E-Learning Community,
Hoping you can help with this one.
We need to make a Word copy of our Storyline training (to share with regulators, etc.,); however, when I Publish >> Word, I get the...
So according to our Microsoft team - the issue is that Storyline is exporting as a .doc format not as a .docx Word format.
Microsoft have removed the ability to download and use .doc (MS Word 97-2003) from all enterprise MS365 solutions - so this will be having a wider impact on Articulate Storyline users.
Ironically, if you use the Export to Translate function you can choose to export in .docx format after selecting to use the 'improved Word workflow'. This gives you the slide thumbnails but also a lot of other not so useful information that you would need to weed out.
Surprising then that Articulate have not updated the Publish to Word option to the same workflow.
@Articulate - any timeframe on when this is going to be fixed, otherwise I may need to start looking at other authoring tools that provide a better user experience.
Hi Deb!
I see that you've been working with my teammate, Lejan! As he shared with you in your support case, publishing a Storyline project to Word will only produce a .doc file. We have added your case to our active feature request and will be sure to update you when this makes it on our product roadmap. At this time, we don't have an exact timeline to share.
