Hi Shelby We make CDs that contain all our pdfs and some software, using Director to make a CD browser. We put the pdfs on the web too, and you're welcome to look at them: <http://www.alliedtelesyn.co.nz/documentation/manuals.html> We use conditional text, variables and text insets to produce about 6 different variants of a several-thousand-page reference manual, plus there's a lot smaller docs. We've got lots of links within each manual. Afaik, there're no problems with active links between books, as long as the links resolve. Mainly that means you have to be consistent with directory structure. If you move something to a different directory, the links die. We avoid them, because they're a pain to maintain. Cheers, Rebecca
