For creating interactive multimedia pieces, such as kiosks, intranet-based information systems, and instructional media, there's no better tool than Authorware - and no better resource on how to do it than The Official Guide to Authorware 4. Create professional pieces by learning to manipulate the flowline to develop an outline for a piece, build Shockwave applications for delivery over internal networks and the World Wide Web, author cross-platform pieces using the Binary-compatible file format, link externally-stored graphics and sounds to your piece-including files stored on a web server, integrate ActiveX components and QuickDraw 3D objects into your piece, and design templates of pieces to enable distributed group work.
