Create PDF catalog of my adobe illustrator images.

[boroarke]

I hope someone in here can help me out. I have around 500 illustrator images that I would like to have saved in a PDF file. The other day I came across a PDF file that someone created which appeared to be a catalog of all their .ai images thumbnail form. I loved the idea. On each page of the PDF file, they had about 75 .ai images in thumbnail form. Right below each picture was the actual image name. For example, there was a picture of an oak tree and under the image the file name read, oaktree.ai. They used this as a catalog of their work. The potential buyer can look through the artist catalog an choose which image they like instead of having full size images of all the artwork. I have Acrobat 5 full version and can not figure out how they created the PDF. Anyone have any idea of how to do this? Please let me know.
THanks All!

Easy with PostScript language programming. Save each AI file as an EPS, and then position/scale the EPS files on the page.
