Export to Word issues (SL360)
Hi FredGood​!
Thank you for the feedback! I totally understand the wish-list sentiment!
Losing access to Word can definitely shake up your workflow when authoring in Storyline. Currently, Storyline only exports to Word for this type of text-based review. Also, the Notes field does still depend on using standard system fonts and colors to come through correctly. There isn't another export format that includes Notes in a way that Google Docs can immediately pick up without going through Word first, unfortunately.
I do see how a more reliable export that always includes Notes, regardless of formatting, can be a helpful improvement for a lot of Storyline authors. I've shared all of your insights directly with our product team. We'll be sure to notify you if we release a future enhancement that helps!
In the meantime, can you share a bit more about your review workflow and what an ideal export would look like for you? The more detail we can pass along, the better!
Thanks Steven!
We used to get requests to have courses exported to Word, for our clients to mark up and send back. Then I started dropping my Word docs into Google and converting to Google Docs so we didn't have multiple saved files all over. This worked great and allowed for team collaboration! But now that we no longer have access to MS Office, it would be fantastic to be able to export a course to Google Docs (or even Google Slides). I know this is jut a dream, but.. I can dream, can't I? :D LOL Thanks
