Hi there,


Here's a couple of points that may help:


1/ You may want to begin by making an additional MAC version of the |start

up file| or projector file (similar to an EXE), depending on your

construction off course. If your using HTML files, then font worry about

this.


2/ You want to include shockwave and Browser installer files (etc.)


3/ Make sure you burn a ISO6990 format CD which can be read on both MAC and

WIN platforms. This will give you a master which you can then supply to the

replicators (once fine tuned off course :)


Cheers, joe.
