Exporting all captions

I have created a Storyline360 file, and each slide has its own audio and closed captioning created within Articulate. I can export the closed captions for individuals slides but can I export all captions for the whole file?  

Also when I publish to video the captions don't appear to come with it, and I then need to attach a caption file?

I am VERY new to this, and hope some can help. 

  • Hello!

    I have the same request: will we have soon the ability to export all the captions in one single file? (ideally separated by screen numbers) Thanks in advance

      @Laurent,

      Just curious, what would be the purpose of exporting all captions into one file and then indicating which slides (screen numbers) they come from?

  • Speaking for myself: as I work for translation companies I need to extract captions, videos and images for translation, and then import them again in translated file (and for that export/import via xliff is great). Import audio and subtitle files one by one is very very time consuming.

  • @Thor,

    The reason is quite similar to editha ; I implement a first version of my training modules with the speech synthesis included in SL360, then my customer makes the voices recorded by a professional studio, and I reimport them. So for the studio, we need to provide a file where the voice-over are precisely written, screen by screen. We create manually an Excel file (based on the Word export), which is quite fastidious.

      @Laurent and @editha,

      I may have a solution that would meet both of your needs. If you're interested, please reply privately to me or via LinkedIn (which tends to work better as sometimes private messages aren't delivered.)

        Hello Thor,

        Why privately ? This should stay a public discussion ;o)
