Importing a LiveCycle ES process into LiveCycle ES2 – UPDATE

Thursday, December 16th, 2010

By Bilen Imam – Consultant

Back in August I had a blog posting about moving LiveCycle ES 8.2 processes to an ES2 environment, found here. Since then, Adobe has put up a new tool in their Labs that that will install as a plugin to Workbench. With this archive migration tool installed, LiveCycle Workbench ES2(SP1) users can import a LiveCycle 8.x archive into the Workbench workspace directly to take advantage of the new features available in ES2. A new LiveCycle ES2 application is created and all the resources in the 8.x archive are imported into the ES2 application.

The new tool can be found at http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/lcworkbench_archivemigration/

Captivate 5 and Flash Player issue with text animations

Monday, December 6th, 2010

Adobe has released an update to their flash player, and this is usually a cause for cheer. However, if you work with Captivate 5, it may give you a bit of a headache. With the new flash player update, if you have any Captivate 5 projects with text animations in them, the projects will stop playing. This is unfortunate, since not only does your projects look prettier with text animations, but they are very helpful when replacing captured text during Demonstration recordings.

Luckily, Adobe has released a hot fix which can be found at
