Re: [Troll] Level Web Pages



I had a brainstorm @ work, so thought I'd pass it on.
Why don't you make them (the maps) PDF files. Quark
Xpress will let you shrink almost any graphics image
to the size you want & will generate a PDF given the
proper methods. Also, PDFs allow you to zoom. Once the
PDF is generated, you can manipulate it almost anyway
you want. If want a detailed explanation let me know,
Dennis.
