1EPUB support for each element or file type depends on if a particular reader supports it. 2PDF support for 3D Models requires Adobe Reader 7.0+. 3For this output, the 3D Model opens in a separate window. 4If you generate Microsoft HTML Help, YouTube videos are rendered smaller than in other outputs and Vimeo Advanced settings are not supported. 5To view HTML5 movie output, end users must have a newer browser that supports these types of videos. |

Warning Due to issues with Windows Media, these files may not work in the compiled output if the link from the topic to the media file has ../ at the beginning. For example, let's say you have a topic at the root level of the Content Explorer and another topic that is in a folder you created. Suppose that each of these topics contains a link to a Windows Media file that is stored (by default) in the Resources > Multimedia folder in the Content Explorer. The file will work in the first topic but not in the second. The solution is to move either the topic or the multimedia file to fix the link. Therefore, you might decide to move the multimedia file into the folder where the topic is stored. Alternatively, you might move all topics that use multimedia into one folder. Then, you might place all multimedia files in that same folder or a subfolder within it.
