Subject:Multimedia and PDF From:Kathy Ellis <kathy -at- TIBINC -dot- COM> Date:Fri, 17 Jul 1998 10:42:45 -0700
I've been charged with creating and teaching a class on
Acrobat Reader for our User's Group this October. (We've
recently put all our documents on CD in .PDF files.) Anyone
have any experience creating really cool multimedia stuff
without a lot of fancy software. I know that there are apps
out there that do this for you, but we can't afford them.
I'm looking for examples of things using HTML, Acrobat,
or even PowerPoint. I might be able to use Illustrator, but
I'd have to learn it first! If you know of a cool site or any
usefu publications, please let me know.
