Hi Matt,
Probably not your cup of tea, but you can achieve this using LaTeX.
It is a 'code' based editor capable of producing and exploiting the
capabilities of PDF documents, including slide shows.
If you go down that route I recommend using additional packages such as
pgf and beamer, they help when it comes to slide shows. There are other
packages for that too, but I can't comment as I have not used them.
It's not for the faint hearted though and requires a bit of geekness or
a technical mind to make it work. There might be wysiwyg packages out
there, but I don't know of them. Ever thought checking out sourceforge?
Regards,
Alain.
