Excerpt/Capsule:
Part IV: Creating the EXE
- Choose not to restart the system since we are not installing
any system files (see Figure 16) -- click Next.
Figure 16: Configure restart
- It's a good idea to save all the wizard settings as a self
extraction directive (SED) file -- choose a name and file location
as shown in Figure 17, before you click Next.

- There's nothing to change in this screen unless you want to
go back and change any of the settings (see Figure 18). Click Next.

- Click the Finish button shown in Figure 19.

- This will activate a DOS/command
window, see Figure 20 that will compress all actual files down to almost 50%
and create a standalone EXE that contains everything -- the presentation(s),
linked files and even the Viewer!
