I had to quit working on it in order to do my regular work. Adding a concluding slide shouldn't be hard though. As the method I used to make the demo is highly inefficient, it would be too much work to change the font, so I'm not going to do that. Anyway, I happen to like the font. :) I didn't realize until you mentioned it that slideshare.net could take pdf files. I was thinking about putting the demo on Scribd, but not in its present form. Maybe slideshare.net is a better place. I'll check it out. One problem, which is a result of the way I made the demo, is the large size of the pdf. I'm thinking about trying another method which should decrease the file size dramatically. But that will have to wait for awhile. > >> Originally, I was going to make a video, but getting good resolution on >> the video was too much trouble.
