Customizing Presentations - Proxima Media Express Supplementary Manual

Chapter 3

Customizing presentations

Once you install the MediaExpress hardware in your projector and create a
.PDF file, you're ready to customize your presentation. This chapter shows
how to rearrange slides in a slide show, add transitions, and adjust timing.
Some of the steps discussed in this chapter can be performed using the
MediaExpress system, the Acrobat Exchange Presenter plug-in, or both. The
text indicates steps that are exclusive to either one.
There are two convenient ways to customize your presentation:
• Use the MediaExpress system and the Cyclops remote to customize your
presentation while it displays through your projector.
• Use the Acrobat Exchange Presenter plug-in to add transitions, adjust
timing, or rearrange slides on your computer before you start your
presentation. You then copy the presentation to a PC-formatted disk and
play it in the MediaExpress disk drive.
To use the MediaExpress system to perform the steps in this chapter:
1. Plug in the projector and turn it on.
2. If the MediaExpress title screen is not shown, press the Source key on the
remote control until the MediaExpress title screen appears.
3. Place the disk containing the .PDF file into the MediaExpress disk drive
(PC-formatted disks only).
4. Press the MouseDisk to bring up the Presentation Selector dialog box.
To use Acrobat Exchange Presenter, install the plug-in (See the Introduction
to this User's Guide), turn on your computer, and start the Acrobat Exchange
program.
