CHM size increased by Captivate tutorial

[Guest]

I have created a project that includes a Captivate tutorial that will only be available in the webhelp output, not in the CHM output. I have excluded the topic that includes the tutorial from the CHM output using conditional variables, but strangely enough, the size of the CHM file is still increased by about 500 Kb.

The only "solution" I have found is to rename the .swf files in the project folder before compiling the CHM output so that they are not "taken into account" in the CHM compilation, and give them back their original name when compiling the webhelp.

I wonder if anyone else has experienced this.

Hi Tony

Likely the Captivate is stuck in the project. I don't believe there is a way to exclude it as you would like. Well, other than what you are already doing.

You (and others) should really report this behavior as a bug/wish so that the developers can be aware we need an ability to apply Conditional Build Tags to content in Baggage and Multimedia folders too.
