Greetings,

I'm looking at a situation involving the distribution of information.

The scenario involves distributing textual information from a PDF  
document via DVD-to-Television player.

Is ANYONE familiar with how to make a DVD player show PDF documents  
in a page-by-page manner?

I'd greatly appreciate your assistance, as we are looking at  
different ways to distribute extensive information vital to survival  
in the event of a pandemic version of Bird Flu.

Printing books thick enough to contain the information would be cost  
prohibitive. Putting the information on a DVD that people could page  
through on a DVD player attached to their television, should they  
lack a computer, seems like a reasonable alternative....provide we've  
got electricity. However, I suspect we'd have such for a while. Long  
enough for people to read the information and act on it.

Regards,

Chuck Pelto
