As I understand it, you build Acrobat files by printing to a virtual printer driver. So, how would you approach making a slide show...make a document with all your photos and such, then "print" it to the Acrobat driver? I'd be interested in hearing more about how you are using Acrobat for slide shows. Is it possible to do synched audio? How about transitions? - --Jim - ----- Original Message ----- From: "Henry Ambrose" <henryambrose@home.com> To: <leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us> Sent: Tuesday, October 02, 2001 6:34 AM Subject: Re: [Leica] The great slide show software search (long) > Jim Laurel wrote: > >Thanks to all of you who responded both on and off list regarding slide show > >software.
