WHAT CD FORMAT?
A CD/DVD project can be developed in many different ways: using Macromedia Director, Flash, Video, HTML, Microsoft Powerpoint, or Adobe Acrobat (PDF) — or a combination thereof.

The majority of our CD/DVD projects are developed using Macromedia Director and may include aspects or combinations of Video, HTML, PowerPoint, Flash &/or PDF files in addition to the interactive interface.

There are pros and cons for each development format and your goal for the CD/DVD project will lead the way for deciding which format to use. To view additional information about the pros and cons of each format, see below.
