Steve, I created my multimedia portfolio in acrobat. I burn it on a CD and send it to prospective clients. I put in a simple autorun program. It automatically brings up a screen giving the option of installing Acrobat Reader or going directly to the portfolio. The main screen is a picture with several text links on it. I found the process to be pretty easy. The end result isn't as smooth as some other authoring programs and it does have some limitations...but it is compatible with most everyone's system.

Whatever you can see and do with PDF using Adobe Reader 6.0 - you can display with a projector on a very large screen. Its fairly easy to add sound and movie clips to PDF files. (Acrobat 6.0 (as does Acrobat 5.0) allows tremendous creative control over PDF files). With a wireless mouse you can remain at a considerable distance from your laptop to control the presentation. > > Steve Harris Steve: Thanks for the response. I was thinking more of a cd presentation, with autorun (which I know can be accomplished easily enough), however, I'm more interested in how the presentation works in that environment when compared to the likes of Director. The reason being is that I would like to see a working example (not on cd of course), to see how it flows etc, with appropriate controls (sans the acrobat toolbar). I need to convince a client that it can be done, as they don't wish to go the expensive Director authoring route as before. -- Regards ======================================================================== === Afternoon very favorable for romance.
