1.	Solve : Trying to burn a newsletter to a cd-r?
Answer» I need to burn five cd's to send to people who contributed to my newsletter. The newsletter is in pdf form and I can't open and burn it so just the newsletter is on the cd. I can only burn the file which can be opened but on the left side of the window is "my computer, my pictures, my documents, etc. and they can all be opened. Is there a way to open the pdf file and just burn it to the cd?Insert blank CD, format, open the CD using WINDOWS Explorer, then drag the PDF onto it.Thanks but the same thing happened. Can you explain again what is going wrong? Quote on the left side of the window is "my computer, my pictures, my documents, etc. and they can all be opened. Click the "Folders" option.Click on the folders option when? Sorry I'm CONFUSED. I just want the newsletter on the cd and not links to my documents,etc.Links to your documents? You mean in the PDF file?I can only burn the file icon which can be opened but on the left side of the window is "my computer, my pictures, my documents, etc. and they can all be opened. Is there a way to open the pdf file and just burn it to the cd?Quote but on the left side of the window is "my computer, my pictures, my documents, etc. and they can all be opened. Is there a way to open the pdf file and just burn it to the cd? What window? Please explain as much as you can.Maybe Broni will know what I'm talking about.Those are not on the disc. they are links that are part of Explorer. Gosh I feel like such an idiot because I have no idea what you guys are talking about. All I want to do is burn my newsletter to a cd without anything else on it ie my documents, etc. I don't know how to MAKE that any clearer. Thanks anyway.You've already done exactly what you are trying to do. Now, this image is from Windows 7 but the general layout is the same. As you can see, the area indicated by the red border I drew, is the file view. this is viewing the FILES on the disc, which just so happens to be a game disc I happened to have in my drive at the time. The blue area MAY look different from yours, but as you can see there are "links" to documents, Music, pictures, etc. These are on the disc, any more then my C drive is (which is an icon lower down). the items on the left are for navigation; they are not on the disc but are there to make it easier for you to move about your disks and folders. Thank you everyone. I think I understand it now. When I send these cd's to people they will have my documents, my pictures, etc listed but when the person clicks on them it will take them to their documents, their pictures, etc. Is that correct?Yes, that's right. It's just like opening any folder on your computer...on the left pane you will see the folder tree - that's why it's called Windows Explorer. Thank you very much!
