• Interactive PDF Web sound-problems buttons will not play on the other, and ugly gray boxes are visible

  When I export my interactive pdf file and open the html or swf file, it works exactly as I want it, but it works on my computer because I have all the links and resources on my computer included in a zip file. The only way I can get others to see it seems to be downloading the zip on dropbox and others who download and then extract files, which is not practical. I would like to integrate the interactive pdf on a Web site or a blog, so it does not directly on the page without having to download all the recources publishes the new web feature seems it might be a good solution, but when I try to publish, it is not working properly users.

  

  My project is to play several audio files on the other, so if a user clicks a button sound is read, and if you click on another button, the first sound will not stop, they will play together. So, for example, if you click on the top button, a beat will play, and if you click on the guitar slot, a guitar sound will play on the beat. It works fine on my computer in the swf or html file, but for some reason any when I publish it to the web, it will only play a sound at the same time. The pace will just stop playing if you click on one of the instruments, which makes the entire project useless. Another problem is that I can't seem to remove the gray boxes without taking away his ability to make it sound. The first photo is that it is supposed to look like, and here's what it looks like when I publish it to the web:

  

  In addition, as you can see, it does not export as interactive PDF, it exports an indd file. It's clickable and interactive however, just with a few bugs.

  Can someone either help me to correct the parameters in the function of online publication, or to teach me another way to incorporate the project on a blog or a website?

  Thanks in advance.

  Interactive PDF is a roll of the dice in a browser and using SWF out from. He died a technology as it is and will work on any mobile system, or on a desktop computer that does not have flash player installed.

  Without knowing what you were doing, it is impossible to tell you why post them online does not work for you but you should really take the time to know what interactive feature are and are not supported with each format.

• When you create interactive PDF files in InDesign, buttons are down in the DC / Acrobat Reader

  Hello Acrobat Forum:

  I create an interactive e-book PDF I get incompatible with questions. I spent a lot of time trying to solve it, and I still have to find a solution. I have some configuration of navigation on a master page that I need to change the page level. These buttons should have a reverse effect, so the bearings must exchange. Most of the time these works. It is the 25% of the time this is a problem. And when there is a problem, they are not displayed. The final PDF is created an InDesign book with 5-6 papers in it. It has 6 layers with the top layer of mostly unprintable.

  That's what I tried:

  • Made sure all the layers in the ID book are exactly the same.
  • Handset of all horizons for the navigation and buttons on the same layer.
  • Exported with only the layer of activated navigation. This fixed the problem with the navigation, but once all the other elements have been added the problem came back.
  • Changed order of the layers. Same result with the loss of elements.
  • Excerpt from the page with the fall as they appear and buttons. As soon as I replace the page with this page the complete document, they give up.

  I use the latest version of InDesign (version 2015.4) and DC Acrobat (version 2015.017.20053).

  I have many more of these books, it is imperative that I find a solution in the future.

  Thank you.

  After much trial and error trying to figure this issue out, I came up with the solution that solved my problem. The issue has to do with the designation of the buttons. Most of the buttons were on master pages. But some pages have a different look on some pages. So I turn on the master page to the page level button. Once this happened, he changed the name of the button. Because I'm using the function "Export to the book in PDF format", where this has been done in other ID files in the book, there was conflict in the naming of the buttons. Once I renamed the buttons with a unique name, they came on the page.

• Interactive PDF: the complete document thumbnail

  Interactive PDF: is it possible to create a thumbnail image in a pdf document, which develops in full screen or a much larger image size (version high resolution) when you click on it?

  I have a small area to work in my doc. Ideally I'd like to punctuate the text with small images and then bind those versions full screen for review and details of things.

  I found the States of objects and folio options but can't seem to do what I want (or at all). There may be a work around using the links to hidden pages or something... ideas please!

  Try to use the show/hide fields. Check the help of InDesign or Google "InDesign Show Hide Fields"

  States of the objects and the Folio Options are for Digital Publishing Suite applications.

• Interactive PDF: flipping scalable button images seem to break up when they overlap

  Hi all

  In my interactive PDF, I have rollover buttons that resizable overview.  The buttons are close together.  When I put the cursor on a button and go to the other in Adobe Acrobat format, it seems to be brief I snap the picture.  I think this is caused when the images are superimposed.  It would be very attractive to my client.  Is there a setting that I can use to prevent this?  I feel I have tried all the settings in the Export menu, I'm looking at you all for the advice.  Here is a link to the PDF in question.  Thanks for helping me with this.

  The only thing you can do is to stop the overlap of the buttons.

• Interactive PDF - video player encompassing Report on the next slide

  Already posted it in the InDesign forum and was here...

  For some reason, after viewing a video on an interactive pdf, the bounding box for the video player carries on the next slide. I tested on other machines, and it happens on each of them, with some just showing the hit box, some showing the area filled with black, so I am quite confused. It is not a major problem, but this does not mean that I'll have to duplicate the following slides directly video content to work around this problem. I don't know if it has something to do with the format of file or something like that, but I was not able to find similar problems or corrections online.

  I found that a right click and choose 'Disable content' solves the problem, but are an inconvenience and does not look good in a presentation.

  Thank you!

  This is a long-standing bug, doubt it will ever fixed. You can use Acrobat to edit annotation properties to 'disable when' = page is not visible, so the Flash Player instance is unloaded battery screen - which generally contributes to InDesign allow you to control this setting.

• I can create forms in the designer, but when I use a data model, I can't interact with the form

  In LiveCycle Designer ES2 I can create a form and then preview and interact with the form.

  This guess I just build objects by dragging the pieces pre-made object on the form (for example, text field) - which I can name, wrap in subforms something - I can add actions and all is well.  When I preview the PDF, I can enter data in the fields, click on the radio buttons, making things appear that everything is great.

  But LC ES2 is based on the data driven development model by, so in my case I need a form guide as well as the form - so it's better to have a model of data created in the first place - and then create the form based on the data model - then build guide form based on the data model - it is also a good idea, and I'm cool with that.

  My problem is that when I'm building a data model (just for a quick and dirty development demo, not associated with services back-end or databases) and I create the form based on the data model - I can't interact with all objects in the preview pane form - further when I launch the workspace and call my process that contains the form - I even can't interact with the form.

  What I am doing wrong?

  Summons - I can create a form and interact with it - but If I start with a data model and generate the form based on that - I can't interact with the form (option buttons click-I can not enter data in form fields - etc) what causes this?  What should I do to use a data model and be able to create an interactive form? >

  Does anyone know what causes this problem?  It's driving me crazy.

  Thank you-

  Ben

  You do not hurt anuthing. It works as advertised. When you generate a Guide and work with a fml data model designer you will only create a static non-fillable PDF file. This is because when you import the model in the designer of the model must be turned in a schema. The schema may not represent constraints and validations can be encoded in the model. The only thing that can be maintained is the structure, so Designer forbids you to buidl an interactive form.

  If you know what you're doing, you could take the data it is generated from the Guide and merge on a XDP template file that you create (unless he models in a first time - you can use the sample XML data as a starting point) using LC forms. Edowmside, is that if there are constraints and rules you would have to code them in the model as well. That's the way it is now there, but it will improve over time, as more of the ability of the model is exposed to the XFA world.

  Hope that helps

• Checkbox labels disappear and colors modified during export to interactive PDF

  I did an InDesign document that contains two simple text boxes: one containing the word 'Yes' – the other containing the word 'no '. The background color of these two boxes are defined as 100% Cyan. After that, I have converted both of them boxes [(voir 1) in the illustration below].

  But when you export as interactive PDF, the background color of change boxes 17/11/0/0 and the 'yes' and ' no. "-labels are not visible in the exported PDF document [(voir 2) in the illustration below]."»

  However, when you click on the box in Acrobat, the box contains its original color 100% cyan and label and check mark appears [(voir 3) in the illustration below].

  But when I click on an empty space outside the box, the box label disappears again, and the background color changes again in 17, 11, 0, 0 [(voir 4) in the illustration below].

  My intention is that, when you view the document in Acrobat Reader, check boxes 100% Cyan with labels 'Yes' and 'No' obvious, when you click on one of them, the check box appears and background color remains 100% Cyan and the labels remain visible - also when you click off the beaten later.

  I'm doing something wrong, or is this a software problem?

  I appriciate all the tips and tricks on how to achieve my goal. Thanks in advance!

  

  In the acrobat preferences, try to stop to see the color of the stationary border for fields, or change the field highlight color.

  

• Interactive PDF files

  Hi all

  I have a new application of an existing customer. They would like to reduce the number of printed reports, we produce and move to an interactive PDF file. I had a good search on google and watched a videos view here, but I've not fallen on really great examples that show what is possible with interactive PDFs. Is it possible to integrate google usable cards in a pdf file? With interactive PDFs, the end user need to use acrobat reader or can the application of the standard pdf work with interactive elements (for example Preview on a mac)? Can someone point me in the direction of some really powerful interactive pdfs - examples of actual work? I would love to see how maps can work and how SVG animation can work.

  Thanks for reading,

  Kyle

  This type of interactivity possible only in a PDF using the Flash file and the element "rich media" PDF, which is not taken in charge by third-party applications and will never work on iOS. There is no support in PDF/1.7 standard for things like the animated SVG files or embedded pieces of HTML5, it is possible only with SWF movies.

  To say bluntly, rich media PDFs that depend on Flash Player is dead in the water, thanks to the growing number of people consuming files outside the scenario of Win/Mac desktop, that it has been designed. One day we could get replacement technology included in the standard PDF/2.x, but it'll be many years in the future.

  If you want people to see something like a Google Map on any device widget, send them to a Web site.

• RE: Missing buttons when the publication to interactive PDF - possible bug?

  Hello

  Still having the following problem published last month - no matter who else has come across this:

  I am creating a 12 page PDF interactive with a set of 12 buttons (defined in the master page) at the bottom of page that relates to each page. When you click on the button you should directly to this page.

  I used this method several times before in CS5 to help get to destination in buttons and the definition of each page as a destination. It works fine normally.

  However, in CS6 once I have export as interactive and open PDF in Acrobat Pro buttons that everything seems to disappear once you click the button on the 3rd or 4th page.

  I stripped the indesign doc to include any other content - just the buttons, without effects of rollover etc, but I'm still having the same problem

  Please can someone help? I can provide the relevant and exported indesign doc PDF if this can help.

  UPDATE: A member of the forum tries to open it in Acrobat Reader instead and it worked fine. It's OK to a point, but I really need to open in Acrobat Pro.

  It is a known problem and should be fixed in the next point press.

• I created show and hide features in InDesign I want to export to interactive PDF format. These functions work when seen in Acrobat on the desktop, but not on iPad/Tablet - why?

  I created show and hide features in InDesign I want to export to interactive PDF format. These functions work when seen in Acrobat on the desktop, but not on iPad/Tablet - why?

  Why? Most likely because the PDF Viewer on the Tablet is too stupid to deal with show/hide functionality.

  You could try PDF Expert of Readdle on qpdf Notes Pro on Android and iOS devices.

  Depending on how the show/hide was created during the export of InDesign, it can work in viewers. Otherwise, you will need to open PDF files in Acrobat and edit features show/hide something more digests of PDF device viewers.

  BTW, you will encounter the same issues with the PDF display components in web browsers.

  I hope this can help.

• Nonprinting buttons appearing in the wrong order when you export to interactive PDF!

  I am a customizable holiday gift certificate creating generic view on our website for download. I create using InDesign CS6. The idea is that the interactive PDF can be opened in the reader, one of the six charts of certificate can be selected (via the radial buttons that hide/show graphics that have been converted into buttons), and various text fields can be filled in. Then, the certificate can be printed and cropped. I have all the interactive elements, works very well, including the "print" key. The interactive PDF looks like this:

  

  However, when printing, I would ONLY the certificates and the fields of text to print and not the instructions, header, or radial buttons selection certificate or full color, background. The point of this is so that the user doesn't lose the ink. I want to print like this:

  

  At first I tried to make nonprinting objects, but which also shows them not when exported to interactive PDF. I then tried the same thing by putting on another layer and uncheck "print layer" (but check "show layer"), but I came across the same result. After searching the forums, I discovered that the only way to make these nonprinting elements, yet still visible in the interactive PDF, is to convert each object to a button and then uncheck the "Printable" box in the window buttons and forms. I did, and now everything seems to work fine...

  Except that when you export, export buttons in order of stacking poorly, like this:

  

  This color background continues to go on in front of all the rest. Even if I put it on it's very own layer under layer with all other charts (converted to buttons) on this subject, he always appears in front of all the other buttons. It is the same whether or not I have check the box create Acrobat layers. What the devil I'm doing wrong?

• can radio buttons show/hide the info in an interactive pdf?

  Hello. I have a question to which I have been faced with during some time... hoping someone can help.

  I create a document in InDesign CS6. It's basically a guide with a joint questionnaire.

  I have forward and back buttons work properly - so that they take you from one page to another.

  However, the more difficult question is I want to have interactivity with the use of radio buttons and eventually the check boxes. Thus, for example, on page 1, I have a question multiple choice where there are three choices. Clicking the wrong answer shows a block of text saying 'no it's wrong' and clicking on the appropriate radio button shows the words "Yes, correct."

  I have created three blocks of text and make it into a multi-state object.

  Three problems:

  1. option buttons seem to be the option for "the State" in the buttons and Forms dialog box
  2. even if that were the case - the State Road seems to be only swf, non-interactive pdf form - is there a way to change this?
  3. script assuming that there IS a way, everything can be put in place so that instead of using radio buttons I have use of check boxes that only give the correct answer if the correct check boxes are selected.

  I would stick to indesign to do this, however, I think that the option is perhaps more suited for this problem?

  Many thanks in advance,

  SunsV

  1 - make 3 images and convert it into boxes option...

  Text blocks 2 2-make (Yes, his right) (No, the wrong) and convert it to buttons - rename it (Righ, evil)

  3 - Click on each radio button and apply action: Show/Hide button and form and on the visibility to activate the globe eye for buttons wrong or right.

  

• I have created a form in Indesign. Is there a way to create the default text in a text field that displays the interactive pdf "insert text here" in the text field?

  I have created a form for the company, so that I work. It is a form that will be used in several offices and has buttons, drop downs and text fields. One of the text fields has a requirement that when the PDF file is opened, the text field has something written in there already, as an example (and one only) INSERT the TEXT HERE. I created the text field in Indesign and used the text tool to type in the area of the body-copy required. After that I have to export it as an interactive PDF, text in the text field disappeared.

  Drop-down lists give an option for a default choice, but I don't see a way to create default text in the Panel of buttons and forms for text fields. Is there a workaround or a hidden feature?

  Thank you!

  Set it in Acrobat.

• Button nail in interactive PDF from InDesign CC

  I designed an interactive PDF in InDesign CC. When I export and open it with Acrobat the 'buttons' have a blue fill (see them the color for the border of stationary fields).

  I know that I can go into my Acrobat preferences and disable this option however when sharing with other users the PDF I don't want that they have to make those changes in their Acrobat preferences or devrais I must. I understand the highlight color is important when creating text fields for forms, but it's a boring and useless feature for the "buttons".

  It also makes my custom buttons look crap. Is it possible in InDesign to turn off the highlight color before exporting to interactive PDF?

  See my screen capture below, you can see how it destroyed my design.

  

  Geigreg I am a designer as well and understand try this with my code above:

  `

  Acrobat X Pro, you will use the JavaScript Panel in the tool pane. You may need to display the JavaScript in the dropdown at the top right of the Tools pane.

  To add the script to the Document level, you then click Document JavaScripts. An opening of dialogue where you enter the name of the script (for example "highlighted". Then, a text editing box opens, where you can enter the code. Select the entire document and delete it. Then add the code as described above. Confirm and close the dialog boxes.

  For the willClose script, click the value of the Document Actions. Opens a dialog box where you can choose the events. Select close document. An edigint text box opens, where you can enter the code. Enter the code as described above. Confirm and close the dialog boxes.

  Save the document and reopen it.

  I hope this can help.
