Hyperlinks in .PPS

[Jessica]

Hello,

I am trying to create a powerpoint presentation to send out to my customers
on disc.

In the Presentation, I have links to external files (in PDF format) which
are also on the disc, however when it is saved as a .PPS file and then
written to disc, the links do not work.

We have got them to work when the CD drive is drive D:, however if it is E:
for example the links don't work!

Ahhhhh!

Apparently it is something to with relative links, but this is all over my
head!

Please, please, please can someone help?

Cheers

Jess

Do you use Package for CD-ROM?

Did you start with all the pdf files in the same folder as the presentation
and THEN link to them?

No, they were all together in one folder, which was in a folder with the
presentation.
