Part 1 of 8 in the blog series, ‘What’s Great in MindManager 8’!
Have you ever tried emailing a MindManager map to someone who doesn’t have MindManager? It has always been a challenge for me! Now, with MindManager 8, you can share interactive maps with just about anyone!
With the new export, you can generate a Mindjet Player file which are interactive read-only files that can be distributed via email or shared online. There’s no Mindjet software to download or install for others to see and use your map and its content.
How it works:
-
With MindManager 8 for Windows, create your map.
-
Click the Export tab and select Export as “Mindjet Player”.
-
In the “Save as Type” option, you can choose either an interactive PDF or a flash file that can be embedded in Websites and blogs.
-
Click save.
Take a look:
Here’s a screenshot of an interactive map that is embedded in the Mindjet.com website. As mentioned above it could also be generated as an interactive PDF file.
A Few Notes:
-
The Player converts MindManager’s most often used features. Some advanced features like displaying Excel ranges & charts are not yet rendered in the Player but Mindjet is exploring this for future versions.
-
Recipients should have Adobe Reader 9 installed and Adobe Flash.
