Abstract
A system for transmitting messages and multi-media presentations to a multi-media receiver (114). The system includes a multi-media messaging terminal (106) which has a controller (216) for the preparation and transmission of a multi-media presentation, composed of multi-media files. The multi-media files include user programmed text events (1258), graphics events (1260), audio events (1254) and multi-media commands (1256). The controller (216) is coupled to a memory, for storing the user programmed text events, graphics events, audio events and multi-media commands, and a multi-media interface (208). The multi-media interface (208) provides a interface to transfer the multi-media files being transferred from the multi-media terminal to a paging system. The paging system encodes multi-media files received with encoder (228) for transmission with transmitter (108).
