Chapter SIXTEEN. Working with Multimedia
Acrobat 7 continues the trend of integrating media in PDF documents, making them a richer viewing experience. As in Acrobat 6, you can add different types of media, such as sound and movie files, Flash movies, and transitions to your PDF documents. In Acrobat 7 Professional, you can customize the movies by providing different versions for users working with different players. For JPEG image PDFs created in some programs, such as Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements, you can also work with an Acrobat 7 plug-in called Picture Tasks, which lets you save, edit, and print images using different layouts. PDF documents play any video and sound files that are compatible with the Windows Media Player, Apple QuickTime, Macromedia Flash Player, Windows Built-In Player, and RealOne players. You can play media files from links or bookmarks, form fields such as buttons, or page actions. As in past versions, you can read and manage special types of PDF documents called eBooks, and in these tips you see how to work with eBooks and other digital editions. |
