INTRODUCTION

Using the Breeze Publish Wizard

Macromedia Breeze is a web platform that provides a single solution for delivering rapid training

and communication across an organization. It consists of three components: the Macromedia

Breeze Presentation platform, the Breeze Training Module, and the Breeze Live Module.

The Macromedia Breeze Presentation platform provides the base for you to create and deploy

multimedia content. It has been designed to work with the Breeze Training Module and the

Breeze Live Module.

The Breeze Training Module lets you create courses, enroll students, and track and monitor

student and course results. This module can be integrated with your Learning Management

System (LMS).

The Breeze Live Module lets you host online real-time meetings, in which you can show

multimedia presentations, screen-share, chat, and broadcast live audio and video.

The Breeze Presentation platform lets you create, deploy, and view multimedia presentation and

learning materials through a web browser. These presentation and learning materials can include

the following:

Breeze presentations Multimedia presentations containing slides, streaming audio,

synchronized animation, and navigation controls.

Macromedia Flash presentations (SWF files)

Images (JPG files)

Flash videos (FLV files)

This guide details step-by-step procedures for using the Macromedia Breeze Publish Wizard to

publish Breeze presentations. The Breeze Publish Wizard is a web application that is part of the

Breeze Presentation platform. You use it in conjunction with the Macromedia Breeze Plug-in for

Microsoft PowerPoint to publish your PowerPoint presentation to your Breeze server for

conversion into a dynamic, high-quality web presentation.

Overview of creating a Breeze presentation

Create a PowerPoint presentation

6 Introduction: Using the Breeze Publish Wizard

animations to your PowerPoint presentation. For more information, see Using the Macromedia

Breeze Plug-in for Microsoft PowerPoint. You can access this information after installing the Breeze

plug-in by selecting Breeze > Help in PowerPoint.

Publish your presentation to the Breeze server by using the Breeze Publish Wizard web

application in conjunction with the Breeze Plug-in for PowerPoint. Your PowerPoint presentation

and associated audio file are uploaded to the Breeze server and are then converted into a

multimedia web presentation. When the conversion process is complete, you receive an e-mail

message containing the URL for the website where you can view your new Breeze presentation.

Intended audience

This guide is for Breeze users who are publishing Breeze presentations from PowerPoint to the

Content Library on the Breeze server.

System requirements and account information

To use the Breeze Publish Wizard to publish a Breeze presentation, you need the following

software and accounts:

•PowerPoint 97 or later

•Macromedia Breeze Plug-in for PowerPoint

•An Internet connection

Note: PowerPoint presentations and their accompanying audio files can become quite large (1 to

20 MB or larger if you have more than 30 minutes of audio or uncompressed bitmap images). For

reasonable upload times, Macromedia recommends using an Internet connection of 56 Kbps or

faster. For example, over a 56 Kbps connection, the estimated time for uploading a 1 MB file is

about 2 minutes.

•Internet Explorer 4 or later

•A Macromedia Breeze account (For more information, see www.macromedia.com/products/

8 Introduction: Using the Breeze Publish Wizard

CHAPTER 1

Publishing a New Breeze Presentation

After adding audio and synchronized animations to your PowerPoint presentation, you are ready

to publish the presentation to your Macromedia Breeze server for conversion into a multimedia

web presentation.

The steps for publishing a new presentation are as follows:

“Step 1: Accessing the Breeze Publish Wizard” on page 10 Access the Breeze Publish Wizard in

PowerPoint. Open the PowerPoint presentation you want to publish (if the file includes unsaved

changes, you must first save the file), and select Breeze > Publish from the PowerPoint menu. Log

in to Breeze using your user name and password.

“Step 2: Selecting a presentation location” on page 10 Select the folder in the Publish Wizard

on the Breeze server where you want to publish your presentation. The default publish location is

the My Contents folder, your personal folder in the Publish Wizard. You can publish to this

default location or navigate to any other folder for which you have publish permissions.

“Step 3: Setting presentation information” on page 12 Enter information about the

presentation (title and summary) and the speaker (name, title, and company).

“Step 4: Selecting presentation features” on page 13 Select whether to include a presentation

outline, a summary page, or a speaker photo in your presentation. You also set slide timings,

selecting whether to pause playback between slides and animations, and how long to play slides

with no audio.

“Step 6: Setting presentation permissions” on page 17 Set the appropriate permissions for the

presentation. This step applies only to users who have manage permissions for the destination

folder of the presentation. You can make a presentation public so that anyone can view it over the

web, or you can make it private, selecting which Breeze users have permission to view it and

requiring them to log in with a Breeze user name and password.

“Step 7: Uploading a presentation” on page 23 Upload the presentation and audio file to the

Breeze server. After Breeze creates your multimedia web presentation, you receive an e-mail

notification containing the URL for the website where you can view the presentation.

10 Chapter 1: Publishing a New Breeze Presentation

Step 1: Accessing the Breeze Publish Wizard

When you are ready to publish a PowerPoint presentation, the first step in the publishing process

is to access the Breeze Publish Wizard. You access it by selecting Breeze > Publish from within

PowerPoint. If you are starting a new session, you must access the Breeze server.

To access the Breeze Publish Wizard:

In PowerPoint, open the PowerPoint presentation that you want to publish as a Breeze

presentation.

From the Breeze menu in PowerPoint, select Publish.

The Breeze Publish Wizard login window appears.

If prompted to log in, do the following:

■Enter your user name (your account e-mail) and password.

■Click the Login button.

The Set Presentation Location page appears.

Note: You can log out of the Breeze Publish Wizard application at any point by either closing

PowerPoint and all open browser windows, or by clicking the Logout link.

Step 2: Selecting a presentation location

The second step in the publish process is to select where to store the new presentation in the

Breeze Content Library.

You can navigate to an existing folder or create a folder.

To select a presentation location:

Navigate to the location where you want to save the presentation. The trail of navigation links

near the top of the browser window indicates the directory path to the selected folder.

For more information, see “Navigating to an existing folder in the Content Library”

on page 11 or “Creating a Content Library folder” on page 12.
