CD Authoring?

I need tp produce a CD that will contain several .pdf files.
Ideally I want the CD to autorun showing thumbnail images of each .pdf.
When a user clicks on a thumbnail the appropriate .pdf should open up.

Can any one tell me how to achieve this please?
Is there a specific program that I could use (free one ideally)

Thanks in advance:A

    Here's a halfway house solution...

    If you have .pdfs in a folder and select VIEW --> THUMBNAILS this should work by displaying each pdf with a thumbnail image of the first page. This will, however, depend on the version of Windows that you're using.

    I'm not sure about the autorun situation though and the each person viewing the disk would have to change the view manually on their computer.

    If I understand correctly, change the view format to thumbnails on all your .pdf. files via the view option in your taskbar. The only program I know will definatley burn them as thumbnails as VSO copytoDvd/Cd, it asks you as it is preparing your files if you wish them to be viewed as thumbnails, obviously say yes. Hope this helps
