Linking Audio and PDF files?

Postby Argle on March 5th, 2011, 4:09 pm

In the Portuguese Programmatic Course, there is a helpful if cryptic comment:
"NOTE: For the audio links in the PDF texts to work, the MP3 files must be unzipped to a subdirectory named ìaudioî."

I tried this without success. Im using a Mac and OS X. Can someone please give me the exact nesting of these folders?

For example, when the units are unzipped they are all in separate folders. Do I suck out the mp3 files and place these together with the PDF in a folder named "ìaudioî", or do they retain their sub-folders, or what?
Any advice welcome.

[This site is fantastic - I own the cassette copy / Barron version for this and other languages but not having to digitze and clean up my own cassettes is wonderful. Thanks a million someone! ]

The name of the folder should be: audio

I just tried this with Unit 1 and it seemed to work fine. If the pdf is in a folder called Texts then the mp3 files should be in Texts/audio

Hope that helps,
