Creating interactive PDFs with page turn,issue with PDF

I recently watch a video on adobe tv titled "indesign : creating interactive PDFs with page turn and flash animation". The video was great,simple to follow with great results, I was able to create a document with interactive page turns that was viewable in a web browser,the next step was to then create the same document but be able to view it in PDF format. I followed the above mentioned video and everything worked apart from one issue once I exported the indesign file out as an interactive PDF it opened up in adobe acrobat pro with no problem but when I went to turn the page it would lag and slow down to the point were it was almost impossible to turn the page, the page turning didn't seem to flow as well as when viewing it in a web browser. The document I am creating is a catalogue and I am happy with the interactive version for the web but I am looking at putting the catalogue on a CD/ USB and need it to open and work with PDF, it would be a great help if anyone could advise me on the reason why the interactive page turning runs so poor in PDF format. I am currently running on a very powerful computer with the adobe CS5 master suit.
Any help would be much appreciated

The page flipping is an SWF effect, so essentially you now have an entire SWF embedded inside a PDF.
If you forget about this garish effect (which, I can guarantee you, by next year will be "so 2012") you can send out a standard PDF which can be easily viewed on otherwise sub-standard computers, and using very straightforward PDF readers, such as the ones currently available for the iPad and its clones.

How do I create a slideshow with music and voiceover?

I am trying to create a slideshow with photos, music (iTunes playlist), and voiceover created in Garageband. I cannot figure out how to have both the voiceover and the music play during the slideshow. I also tried iDVD but ran into the same problem.
I also wanted certain songs to play during certain sets of pictures and I can't figure out how, other than to create separate slideshows for each song, how to set it up to show the photos for the duration of certain songs... if that is possible. However, my main issue is the first one - how or which program to use to combine photos (iPhoto), music (iTunes), and voiceover (GarageBand).

Use whichever you want.

Use separate tracks for music and voiceover/narration so you can adjust volumes independently.

Use separate tracks for each song or use two tracks and alternate songs on these tracks so as to allow maximum alignment/overlap possibilities.
how to set it up to show the photos for the duration of certain songs... if that is possible.
Slide photo and/or song to align beginnings and then drag the end photo "handle" left or right to change its duration to match the duration of your song.

Creating a slideshow with Keynote

Is there a simple tutorial somewhere showing how to create a slideshow with music in Keynote?
I tried the Help menu and the PDF instructions that come with Keynote, but could find no simple instructions for a newbie to follow.

If you have individual music tracks you want associated with specific photographs, you can Build each track into a slide and then Build the photographs into the same slide. Then, you can set the photo Builds to be "automatic" so that they will be loosely synchronized with the music. (I emphasize "loosely" because the speed of Builds is not absolute, and varies with the processor speed from computer to computer, so it is not possible to have absolute synchronization with this procedure.)
If you simply want to have a slideshow, with music running in the background, you can do as Tulse has described: create the music playlist in iTunes and Record it as a Soundtrack in the Inspector/Documents/Audio menu. This also will allow you to "Record" the Builds and Transitions in sync with the music. CAVEAT: this will playback properly ONLY as a stand-alone Keynote presentation. This does not seem to retain sync when exported to another format, or even when played as a Keynote presentation via a Hyperlink.
Another possibility is to create the slideshow and establish a timeline for the Builds and Transitions. Then in Garage Band (or any other music editing software) you can create a music track timed to the slideshow and then import it (via iTunes) into Keynote as a Soundtrack.
It all depends on what you are trying to accomplish as to which is the most appropriate method (or series of procedures) that will work best for you. However, as Tulse has said, there is no tutorial on this subject. Trial-and-error and a little hands-on experience will be your tutors.

I bought Elements for a specific purpose...to create a slideshow with music.

DOES the new REVEL include CREATING A SLIDESHOW WITH MUSIC? This is the reason I bought ELEMENTS to begin with.
I am not interested in I PADS, CELL PHONES or any other internet media. I need the SLIDESHOW/MUSIC feature of my original ELEMENTS. CAN YOU HELP? Thank you, Kathy

Hi,
I'm not sure about how you came to the idea that PSE would help you create slideshows with music. To do that seriously, you need a more specialized software like PicturesToExe for example : http://www.wnsoft.com/picturestoexe/ (I have no relationship with this company but I have seen what my fellow photographers are doing with this software).

What Apple software do I use to create a slideshow with voiceover?

What Apple Software do I use to create a slideshow with voice over?

There are many ways to produce slide shows using iPhoto, iMovie or iDVD and some limit the number of photos you can use (iDVD has a 99 chapter (slide) limitation).
If what you want is what I want, namely to be able to use high resolution photos (even 300 dpi tiff files), to pan and zoom individual photos, use a variety of transitions, to add and edit music or commentary, place text exactly where you want it, and to end up with a DVD that looks good on both your Mac and a TV - in other words end up with and end result that does not look like an old fashioned slide show from a projector - you may be interested in how I do it. You don't have to do it my way, but the following may be food for thought!
Firstly you need proper software to assemble the photos, decide on the duration of each, the transitions you want to use, and how to pan and zoom individual photos where required, and add proper titles. For this I use Photo to Movie. You can read about what it can do on their website:
http://www.lqgraphics.com/software/phototomovie.php
(Other users here use the alternative FotoMagico: http://www.boinx.com/fotomagico/homevspro/ which you may prefer - I have no experience with it.)
Neither of these are freeware, but are worth the investment if you are going to do a lot of slide shows. Read about them in detail, then decide which one you feel is best suited to your needs.
Once you have timed and arranged and manipulated the photos to your liking in Photo to Movie, it exports the file to iMovie as a DV stream. You can add music in Photo to Movie, but I prefer doing this in iMovie where it is easier to edit. You can now further edit the slide show in iMovie just as you would a movie, including adding other video clips, then send it to iDVD 7, or Toast, for burning.
You will be pleasantly surprised at how professional the results can be!
To simply create a slide show in iDVD 7 onwards from images in iPhoto or stored in other places on your hard disk or a connected server, look here:

Newbie having trouble creating a Slideshow with the Animation Panel.

I know it's a much more complicated/advanced way to create a slideshow. But, I know it can be done.
I will explain exactly what I do, the steps that I take. In my own newbie opinion, I think I'm just missing a step somewhere. Maybe I'm missing two or three steps. Hopefully somebody will be able to help me.
Thank you in advance, if you do help.
1.I open the program Adobe Bridge
2. Then I select all images in a folder, then I utilize the review mode & deselect the photos I do not want to use.
3. Then I open the selected images into Photoshop. (If you haven't already figured it out, I have Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended)
4. I clicked on Windows menu >arrange >Tile. That way all of my images are right there & ready for utilization. (At this point, none of the images have been clicked on yet.)
5. Then I open the animation panel & create a white blank background for the first frame.
Here is where I run into the problem. I know how to add extra frames, that's easy enough.
I also know that when I add the extra frame, it makes a duplicate of the previous frame.
My problem is trying to get that extra frame to reflect the next image I would like to display in this little slideshow and so on and so forth for the next, maybe 20 images.
Then what I would like to do is randomize the transitions with things like dissolve, honeycomb, fade in & fade out. With other options if there are any.
I would like to create a fancy slideshow is all.
I have read all of the help manuals, all 600+ pages. This is how far I got. I even did a search in the Adobe community. Even those articles don't quite tell you how to do this. So, I probably could have done a lot more homework. But. I'm starting to get frustrated with it.
Hopefully someone here will be able to help me with this. Thank you Obi-Wan Kenobi in advance. :-)

Thank You Thank You Thank You JJ Mack!
That was exactly what I was looking for & it worked perfectly. :-)
I have one more question if you would be so kind to help me with.
I was wondering if there was a way to add transitions, i.e. dissolve, fading in & fading out, split, reveal, random bars, vortex stuff like that.
I was also wondering if there was a random option for this.
If I have to add them in manually, that's fine with me. It would be really nice to be able to add some different transitions between frames.
Once again, thank you in advance for your help.

Is it possible to create a slideshow with the theme "Places" ?

Hello,
I used to create slideshows with the theme "Places" in Iphoto and I can't find it in Photo.
Is it still possible ?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
According to this page:
http://www.apple.com/support/photoservices/product_specs/
You’ll need to upgrade to at least v6 for a calendar.
Cards and calendars are available only for users of versions of iPhoto 6 or later.

Creating a slideshow with 500+ photos

I am trying to create a slideshow that will run continuously with over 500 photos and burn it to a DVD. Is there any way to do this in iDVD? I want to be able to use the titles of the photos also. I tried doing it in iMovie, but when I added a title to the photo, it did not keep the title on the photo for the entire time. It split the photo into 2 parts, with the title and without.

I put all of the photos into iMovie, added a title to each photo using the "Music Video" title and it split the photo. I tried to edit it and make it last the lenght of the clip and everything got completely messed up. Only parts of the title would show up on some, a photo would just flash in-between regular photos, and many other errors.
Is there any way for me to do the same in iDVD? I know it limits the number of photos to 99 per slideshow, but can I make them run continuously?
Thank you,
Julie

How to create a slideshow with audio?

Hi,
I'm using iMovie 7.1.4.
I want to create a slideshow from 6 pictures, with an accompanying audio. The pictures should show one after the other according to audio, meaning the intervals are not equal, and I need to determine each interval while listening to the audio.
How do I do it?
Thanks,
Gil.

How can i create a slideshow with the newest version of dreamweaver?

I am trying to figure out how to create a slideshow but i cannot find any explanations for the new version of Dreamweaver. Can anyone help?

DW doesn't make slideshows. You'll need to use a jQuery plugin or a 3rd party commercial Extension.
Do a web search for:
jQuery Cycle2
jQuery WOW Slider
jQuery Fancybox2
Primer for using jQuery Plugins
Alt-Web Design & Publishing: Primer for Using jQuery Plug-Ins

How do i create a slideshow with arrows in iweb

i want to create a "slideshow" that allows the user to move forward and backward using arrows at their own pace rather than a looping slideshow they cannot control.

if you have iwe2 or iwe3 then you can use iweb photos page pop up slideshow.
when your users pop up the slideshow, they can mouse-over the slideshow image and a slideshow will show up to allow them to pause/play, next and prev image.
it also has thumbnails row on top, your users can selectively display and image.

Creating a slideshow with narration

Hi,
I'm wanting to make a slideshow with narration over it recorded from a digital recorder. It looks like there are different apps/options for doing this but I'm wondering what the best way to go about it is. I guess my main concern would be just making sure the narration lines up with the slides. I'm a newbie to dealing with photos on a mac so any info is greatly appreciated.
Thanks again.

I guess my main concern would be just making sure the narration lines up with the slides.
Are you planning to burn the slideshow to DVD or simply view it on your Mac? If the former, then I would recommend you build your slideshow in iMovie 6. (If your Mac came with iLife '08 then you can download iMovie 6 free from Apple. It has better control of the audio track than iMovie 7.) That way you can see how your audio track lines up with your photos. You can edit the audio track somewhat in iMovie 6 (fade in, fade out) and lock an audio clip to a particular spot in the video timeline, to keep them synced the way you want.
You can also use GarageBand to edit the audio track of an iMovie project. I haven't tried this so can't comment on the advantages of this over doing it all within iMovie 6.
Many people complain that when using iPhoto to match the timing of their iTunes playlist to the timing of the slideshow that after exporting to iDVD the timing is not retained. That's another reason to use iMovie - the relationship between the video and audio tracks will be retained when you import the movie into iDVD.
Regards.
