Summary
  • Provided with this book is a CD-ROM containing the text of portions of the book (including the color figures); detailed articles on CD-ROM technology; some software tools; several QuickTime movies; frequently asked question (FAQ) listings about CD-ROM publishing, data compression, JPEG, MPEG, fonts, and file formats; along with links to additional resources on the Internet.
  • This book looks at the many kinds of electronic publications being produced today. Although it focuses on CD-ROM, much of the discussion is also relevant to publishing on the World Wide Web. Electronic Publishing on CD-ROM describes examples and alternatives for the design, authoring, manufacturing, marketing, and distribution of CD-ROMs. It covers electronic document authoring systems (Adobe's Acrobat, Macromedia's Director, Apple's HyperTalk, and more). It discusses traditional and emerging document standards and formats (SGML, HTML, Java, etc.), as well as physical disc standards (ISO 9660, HFS). It also provides detailed information on the costs of CD-ROM publishing projects - staff, manufacturing, and phases of development. In addition, it includes an extensive list of resources and a helpful glossary and bibliography.
