questions on producing an interactive PDF presentation
I'm trying to produce an interactive PDF presentation which would be used instead of Powerpoint. Does anyone have any suggestions for this?
I am using CS3 and would convert to a PDF and make the final interactive changes there.
I want to incorporate video (on the hard drive) and graphics. So far, I have set the pages (and the master page) up landscape fashion and am using 8.5" x 11" (US standard legal width).
What resolution do graphics need to be to avoid pixelation when shown through a projector? Will 72 dpi suffice?
If I want to add captions, etc. to a MOV video, what program is the easiest to use (OSX, Snow Leopard)? I have iMovie HD, but is anything else suitable?
Any suggestions?
Thank you.
In light of the ipad, I found it interesting about how this newspaper project, information about which was posted to this list, fared some years ago:
