However, one aspect of film recorder output that is worth considering is the use of title slides for presentations. A couple of years agao, I did a slide program on the Poweder River Basin for several different audiences. I used Microsoft PowerPoint to make about a dozen text slides with key facts about the area. One included a scanned-in map. All the title slides contained a small scanned-in image from one of my photos in the corner to tie them together. I copied the PowerPoint presentation to a diskette which I took to a local service bureau, which produced the film-recorder output slides. Not cheap, as Dave noted, but text slides added a nice touch to the presentations. -- Ernest -- Ernest H.
