How can I keep the quality of an MP4 video high when I export an interactive PDF from InDesign?

I am making an Interactive PDF with embedded MP4 video using InDesign.  When I view the video in the PDF it has degraded the quality and the colour contrast is poorly affected.  I can have the video as a floating window but this gives a harsh black line around the video when it plays which is not acceptable.
Can anyone advise how to maintain the quality of the original video when it is embedded?

You can control the quality of the video (aspect ratio, pixel dimensions, frames/minute, etc.) by using the Adobe Media Encoder which comes with InDesign CS5 or later installations, including InDesign CC. InDesign only includes what you have placed and passes it on to the PDF file. There are no video quality controls in InDesign.
You cannot change the way Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Reader displays the MP4. If you don't like the way Acrobat/Reader handles display of a floating window, then you'll have to display it within the page. For more info, inquire in the Rich Media Acrobat forum.

  • How can I keep the order of photos in an album when I upload it to Flickr?

    When I share an iPhoto album on Flickr, the order of the photos in my album is lost. Apparently Flickr uses the photo date, but that defeats all the manual arranging I have done in my album. How can I preseve the photo order on upload?
    Also, the description of each uploaded photo appears in small print and not in the main Flickr label box. This means the description cannot be seen if a photo is viewed in full screen mode. How can I automatically transfer the iPhoto descriptions to the main Flickr label boxes?
    Is there a better way to share iPhoto albums on the Web (Picasso)?

    I'm glad you found a solution
    For for others and you in the future it is important to understand
    Albums are a way to VIEW photos in your desired order within iPhoto - the photos do not have any order (in fact they are in files scattered essentially randomly accross your hard drive)
    When you move the out of iPhotoand view them in another program that program determines teh order they are viewed in
    An easy to see an example is the finder - files exported from iPhoto and viewed via the finder can be viewed in many different sort orders including name, date created, date modified, size, kind and label - none of these have any relation to the order the photos were in the album UNLESS you cause that to happen (like by exporting using sequential file names so teh finder name sort matched the album order) - the order you see photos in is totally determined by the program you are using to view them - if you understand how it views them then you may be able to export them so that the destination program view martches the iPhoto view
    To make suggestions to Apple re exporting to Flickr (or any other outsidside service) -  iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback - and to make suggestiont to thrid party suppliers like the Picasa export plugin contact the developer of that plugin

  • How to export an interactive pdf from InDesign at a smaller file size.

    I have a single page InDesign doc with a side navigation panel to the right of each page. This panel has interactive buttons created in InDesign.
    When I export as an interactive pdf, the file size is over 27MB and I need it to be much lower.
    I should mention that this doc was made from an original PRINT InDesign doc of facing pages, which was about 55MB.
    When making it single pages for the interactive doc, the InDesign file size increased to 105MB.
    Can anyone explain this and have any useful tips for saving the pdf down WITH interactivity working?
    Many thanks.

    Okay - With the 15MB pdf, when I go into the PDF Optimizer dialog box, it's telling me that the Fonts are using 40% and the Acrobat Forms are using 29%.
    Anyone know of a way I can reduce either of these???
    Many thanks in advance!

  • How can you keep the highest iphone 4s Video quality the same when exporting it from iMovie.

    How can you keep the highest iphone 4s Video quality the same when exporting it from iMovie.

    InDesign's PDF export engine does not transcode your videos, they are embedded exactly as they were in the original file. The Flash Player runtime which displays video inside PDF files may not show a perfect match to Quicktime etc. because most video playback tools aren't designed for a color-calibrated workflow, but they should be close.
    The playback quality (blocking and aliasing) will be affected if the clip is not playing at 100% (screen pixels != video pixels) and in PDFs with the standard video player widget, that will only ever happen when you use 'floating window' mode. PDF pages have physical dimensions, so viewing them at "100%" does not make them match screen pixels.
    If you don't mind the video clip being smaller than the media annotation in which it's playing, then use my free upgrade to the Acrobat playback widget - VideoPlayerX - which maintains 1:1 pixel scale until the page is zoomed out too far for it to fit. You can install the widget into InDesign so it's used by default when exporting.

    That indicates a hardware failure. Read here:

  • I recently had to completely restore my laptop, so I lost the music on my itunes. It's still on my iphone, but how can I keep the music I already have and continue to add more music from the newly set up itunes again?

    I recently had to completely restore my laptop, so I lost the music on my itunes. It's still on my iphone, but how can I keep the music I already have and continue to add more music from the newly set up itunes again? Is there actually a way to do this? I can't help but wonder what the stupid icloud is for if my music is still somewhere in the 'cloud' but it's zero help for restoring music when it's lost on a computer....any help even a site that get's around apple would be great!

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
    Have you failed to do this?
    If so, not good, you can transfer itunes purchases from the iphone to your computer.  File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
    You can also redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:

  • How can i keep the optimize settings in Muse

    I see that some images keep the original names an its compression and size, but other images doesn't.
    The "problem" is with the round corners that i used, the original images are in jpg, but in order to make the round corner the Muse convert them in to png and it increases a lot the file size.

  • How can I keep the edited video which in project into Libray for re-edit ?

    How can I keep the edited video which in project into Libray for re-edit later ??
    As i used i movie 06 before....
    after i imported the videos in to the library, then i can drag the videos to the timeline(now is project)
    then edit it.
    After that i can just drag all the timeline clips which is edited to the library.So I can keep it for next time if i wanna re-edit.
    But Now if did all the editing at the library clips then drag to project, i can not drag the project clips back to library, so how can i keep it for my editing safty?
    I do not wanna to edit again the same clips from the library!!! as i need to edit many different short clips together then export to individual videos, and i may need to re-edit.
    or i can keep the edited video in project, then i can selected the clips which i willing to export, the rest video who in the project will not be export at the same video? I m wondering....
    please help!!! Urgent!!

    Just keep the project. Then you can just duplicate the project and make the next set of changes as needed. By duplicating the project, you are not duplicating the event, just the links to the event library.
    This way you are not eating up disk space.
    Does that help?

  • Using Numbers, I set up a spreadsheet grid but it disappears as soon as I click anywhere. How can I keep the grid?

    Using Numbers, I set up a spreadsheet grid but it disappears as soon as I click anywhere. How can I keep the grid?
    I have:    iMac with OS 10.10.3;   Numbers 08 ver 1.0.3

    Hi Bernard,
    This may help. Numbers tables can have Grid Lines (Format Panel > Table > Grid Lines)...
    ... and Cell Borders (to change all cells, select the whole table by clicking on the "bullseye" top left) then Format Panel > Cell > Border > select a Border Pattern and Style
    1 pt Borders (my preferred default):
    They don't disappear when I click away. Also, the borders show up well when I post a screen shot to this forum .

  • How can I keep the field in the same page

    How can I keep the field in master frame in the same page of the detail frame?
    They are in the different pages sometimes?
    Thank you.

    I believe the OP has a question similar to mine...
    I have several groups, and the master for each group is only one line, and the detail is between 1 and five lines, like so:
    A
    A1
    A2
    B
    B1
    C
    C1
    C2
    C3
    ...The problem is, sometimes only the master record gets printed at the bottom of the page, and then the detail is printed at the top of the next page. I don't need each group on it's own page. I just want to be sure that if the detail can't fit on the page with the master, then I want the master to only print on the next page.
    Can you help with this?
