Language versioning

I am creating a course consisting of 24 lessons, supposed to be published in six different language versions. Each lesson also has voice over. As the default text caption backgrounds in Captivate are not editable, I have placed most of the on screen text in Smart Shapes. The voice over is available in slide notes.

So, none of these are available for export and import. The export for translation option only exports captions and closed captions. Theoretically, I could use closed captions for the voice text. But then you need a sound file. thus, we’ve got a Catch 22. No closed caption without a sound file, and no sound file whitout text to read from. Obviously a case of the hen and the egg. I could, of course, create empty sound files for each slide, but we’re talking 700+ slides, and the time this would take will take the profit out of the project.
