1. HELP with PDF documentation, linking and indexing
Hello everyone,
I am new to this group and I need all the help I can get !
First let me state that I do not expect people to waste their time solving
my problems since they are a few and I am new to PDF creation contrary to
most of you (judging by the msgs), *but* any guidance to online
tutorials/info , books, and especially suggestions would be *greatly
appreciated*.
I was given the following task (please bear with me :) ) :
Create the proceedings (CD-ROM) AND book of abstracts (book) from a set of
Word or WP files for a Conference.
The word files have to respect certain restrictions: size, font, paragraph
format, etc. and may contain graphics and tables (these are scientific
papers) and will be given to me preformatted (at least ....).
For the book of abstracts:
since it has to be printed, I think my best bet is Pagemaker. The book needs
to contain a TOC and a primary and secondary author index and a
University/company index.
Printers accept only pagemaker or Quark files.
-- any suggestions ?
For the CD-ROM things are more messy:
It contains a "visually pleasing" (i.e. graphics ) first page with buttons
that trigger the TOC (for welcome messages , etc.) author index, timetable
of presentations (i.e. papers) etc. , ALL of which are linked.
How do I create a nice interface (HTML --> PDF maybe ?) and how do I create
triggers (in the form of buttons) that bring up a specific PDF or start the
built-in search etc ???
I will also need to create an Index, etc.
Is Adobe Writer or Distiller appropriate or do I need another tool ?
Please accept my apologies for the length of this message but I feel a bit
lost in all these technical questions.
Thank you in advance for any help or guidance.
Steve
