Note: Make sure the ADA compliant button is always blue. This ensures that the font
style, size, and color are ADA compliant. If the button ever changes to gray, click it to
return to ADA compliant settings.
Part II: Exporting Captions to a File
Exporting captions to a file will allow you to upload the video and captions separately, giving
students the ability to turn captions on and off.
1. Click Captions on the toolbar in the middle of the screen. (If you don’t see the Captions
button, click More and select Captions).

2. On the bottom of the Captions area, click Export captions.
3. A window will appear asking where you would like to save the caption/subtitle file. It is
recommended to save it in the same location where you saved your recording file. Click
Save.
4. On the bottom of the Camtasia window, locate the track that has the captions. Usually,
this will be Track 2. If you are unsure, move the mouse over the track and it should
display Media type: Caption.

Part III: Producing a Recorded Lecture with Captioning
1. On the Production Wizard window that appears, click the drop down box and select
either MP4 Only (up to 480p) or MP4 Only (up to 720p). MP4 Only (up to 720p) may
produce a higher quality file, but also may be much larger in size. If the final file is too
large you may encounter difficulty uploading it to your course.
2. Under File name and folder, enter a Production name. This will be the title of the
video.

C:\Users\{your username}\Documents\Camtasia Studio\{Production name}. To
change the save location, click the folder icon next to the current location.
Note: If you changed the save location for the recording file earlier in the guide, it is
recommended that you change to the same location here.
4. Click Finish.
5. The video will render. When it completes, the Production Results window will appear.
Click Finish.

and subtitle file from before and a new folder that contains the finished lecture video
that you will upload to Blackboard.
