Abstract

Our publications process starts with one set of files that we convert into different formats and publish in different media (paper, CD-ROM and the Web). Planners of such projects must address these issues: the CD-ROM reader to display the files, the hardware and software tools used in each phase of the project, the extent of hyperlinking and the tools to insert the links, graphical formats, platforms targeted by the CD, whether to publish PDF or HTML files on the Web, and HTML conversion tools. Careful planning can result in a publications process that is coherent, efficient, time-saving and cost-effective
