Can you create a interactive slide rule as an interactive PDF in InDesign?

I'm trying to create an slide rule tool as an interactive PDF (or swf if need be). So an object needs to be able to be selected and dragged vertically with a mask above it. I created this years ago in flash but ActionScript 2.0 no longer works and an interactive PDF would be a better format.

Thanks for your response. Yes, I think it would be best to create it in InDesign and export as a swf. Do you know if is there a script I could use drag the objects InDesign? Below is a link to the old swf created with ActionScript 2.0. I was just trying to avoid having to recreate it with Actionscript 3.0. Also, I placed the old one in InDesign and exported as an interactive PDF, and it worked. FYI
Here is a link of the current swf:

  • Can you create a .ics file from entries in a PDF?

    Hi,
    I'm wondering if anyone can help me: Can you create a .ics file from entries in PDF?
    Example:
    I'm wanting people to be able to choose a number of dates for some events within a PDF, then click a button that will then create a (or number of) .ics files so they can add those dates to the calendar of their choice. Is this possible?
    Thanks

    Using the solution supplied by Leonia, and cited by Keith, you can do the same thing (flopping the Curve profiles) in LightRoom. So, it makes sense. Though I didn't know know it worked for Color Negatives.
    A friend of mine with a Nikon Coolscan is going to scan nearly 150 B&W rolls of 35mm negatives for me, and I want to import them all into Aperture, naming and keywording as I go. The objective is, of course, to have the convenience of a diigtal library. But also to have some made into large prints for framing.

  • Can you create a file without presenter's notes?

    Can you create/export a file that won't be able see presenter's notes, either in Keynote or PPT format?

    Yes, I can export to pdf without the notes. I was wondering if it was possible to send someone the slides in PPT format without including my presenters' notes.
    They are lecture slides for a class, so I am giving my students copies in pdf, but I might want to give them to someone else in a format they can edit and use as slides, but without having my notes to myself in there. I suppose it's not designed for such an option, as far as I can tell, hiding the notes doesn't make a difference if exporting to PPT.

  • How can you create a writable PDF document from a PPT presentation ?

    How can you create a writable PDF document from a PPT presentation ? Upper part with the image , lower part with a free space in order to take notes for students during presentation or course.
    Thanks.

    You can make a PDF file out of you notes and handouts but using the Adobe PDF printer.
    Open your PowerPoint Document then go to “File” “Print”
    Select ‘Adobe PDF” Printer
    Under slides, select which way you want to print. Note it will not print to a printer but to a PDF file.
    After then go into printer Properties and Setup PDF properties, do the following: (see second image below)
    Default: PDF/A 1-b
    Adobe Security: none (change as needed)
    Adobe Output folder: Prompt for Adobe file name
    Adobe Page size: Letter (change as needed)
    Check the following check boxes
    View Adobe PDf Results,
    Add Document Information,
    Rely on system fonts only,
    Delete Log files for successful jobs.
    Select OK
    A pop will ask you where you want to save the document. The file extension should be PDF. After giving the file name select okay and the file should popup as a PDF. Down side is if you want to speaker notes included then you will have to do another file, like wise with just screen shots then combine into one PDF document.
    I used Acrobat IX Pro. So to do this you need Acrobat IX or X Pro.
    Hope this will help.

  • Can you create apps after 1st May 2015 using Adobe DPS single edition?

    Can you create apps after 1st May 2015 using Adobe DPS single edition?
    I currently have SE via creatieve cloud - one of the only reasons we switched to CC was for the DPS SE.
    Does anyone know if this capability will just be 'switched off' at midnight 1st May 2015?? There are huge costs for going the enterprise route but with no date in sight for Publish to be launched I am not sure I can wait for this, or should I???

    Adobe states: Please note that the Digital Publishing Suite, Single Edition, service will be available for use until May 1, 2015, but beyond that date the service will no longer be available.
    So essentially my licence will expire on 1st May - Adobe's note just mentions 'service' -  even though part of CC and I will not be able to maintain my app or create any more IPA's after 1st May. I can't beleive there is nothing to switch over to other than paying thousands of pounds for enterprise??
    Just all so vauge, feels like a plug is going to be pulled and thats it??? Maybe I am missing something?

    How can you create the first level of a spry menu bar to have no colour? I have a coloured background right now and the colour matches when you load the site in Internet explorer but does not match in Firefox. Any suggestions are welcomed on how to fix this.

    Here is the site:

    I am learning with code, (obviously) so any feedback would be nice. I use dreamweaver CS4, but when I originally designed the site it was in a much older version of dreamweaver. I wonder if that could also be a cause. (besides human error)
    Thanks again,

  • How can you create a playlist with music and music video and play those from same playlist through Apple TV?

    How can you create a playlist on Ipod touch with music and music video,  and play those from same playlist through Apple TV?  I can download, create a playlist with both music and music video, stream that through the Apple TV with no problem.  The sound and the information show up on the TV, but when it gets to a music video, it only shows the information and "artwork".
    I also have a video playlist - videos play fine through the Apple TV, but will not shuffle through all videos - continues to repeat the same one.  I have most definitely selected shuffle in both locations - from the playlist and on the ipod video screen while video is playing.

    I finally got it... had to sync the photos with the music in iMovie, arrange the voiceover in GarageBand then export to iTunes, and then I was able to put it all together in iMovie and burn in iDVD... had a few glitches along the way but finally finished : )

  • Can you create a template that has a header and footer to forms?

    Can you create a template that has a header and footer to forms?

    Yes but how are they going to create the Landscape versions?
    The problem with doing it in Pages '09 as rotated content is that the Headers and Footers are not rotated and there is inherent clumsiness in the rotated content usually being too large for the page when viewed at 90°.
    Best to make it in two or more separate documents.

  • Can you create a new folder and put several documents in it in Adobe?

    Can you create a new folder and put several documents in it in Adobe?

    Thank you for your help. Now I just want to expand on this a bit. To use the Applescript you have supplied me, how do I tell it to name the folder other than by date, and where to put it?
    Let me say, preferably, is it possible to make an action like this right-clickable? Instead of having to pick a script. Anything that slows this process down means I might as well do it all by hand. What I'd really love to do is this:
    Select a number of items. Right click to an action saying "create a new folder and put this items in it. Name the folder with the first item's name". Very simple and quick.
    Could this be accomplished? Through Automator? or something that can appear in the contextual menu? Folder actions?
    I'm just getting started with using these tools.

  • Can you create GS1 DataBar Expanded in LiveCycle

    I have this same question in LiveCycle Design, but found it would be best here.
    I have Adobe Acrobat 9 pro and was trying to create GS1 DataBar Expanded barcodes.
    Since I was limited to just 3 barcode types I hit the forum and found out about LiveCycle.
    Even in LiveCycle through Adobe Acrobat 9, I don't see the GS1 barcode I need.
    I've tried to manipulate what is available, but that will not work.
    I found a plug-in for Adobe Illustrator that has the GS1 DataBar Barcode, but Illustrator + the plug-in software is a little expensive.
    My question as stated in the beginning is can you create GS1 DataBar Expanded barcode through Acrobat?
    In this situation through LiveCycle? Is there a plug-in through Acrobat or LiveCycle that will include the GS1 DataBar barcode?

    You can set a button to be hidden in the PDF.
    And you can set a button behaviour to reveal/hide a button (rather unhelpfully described as show/hide fields).
    So. Make your button with your navigation hyperlinks and set its visibility in the PDF as hidden.
    Then make another button which is visible and set the action for mouse down (or mouse enter if you want it to fire on mouseover) to show fields, and select the number of your menu button from the list that is presented to you.
