Thanks for the response.

I am using PPT2003. The pdfs were created by Acrobat Standard software.
However, (if it matters) the computer I am burning my presentations on, has
acrobat professional on it. The pdfs were not created with the acrobat
professional however.

The cd's are being packaged for viewing, so it automatically burns the
powerpoint viewer and runs on its own....well....kind of.....if I can get
these links working.

My links are all text that might say "Souvenirs". I would right click on
the text box and hit the hyperlink option and hyperlink to the pdf that is
stored on my computer hard drive.
