Image horizontal scroll in interactive PDF or best next thing?

I have been supplied a long (horizontal) timeline image to place into an interactive PDF.
I have found ways of scrolling using Folio states etc but it seems this wont work in an interactive PDF.
Does anyone have any suggestions of a way I can scroll left and right in an image box or have a similar effect that will be compatible.
At the moment I'm thinking I should animate the file and play a video instead - but this isn’t ideal.

You are more likely to get an answer if you ask in the Acrobat or InDesign forum.

  • REG:: Horizontal scroll bar for pdf

    Dear All,
    I am displaying data in a table in Portal and this table has 13 columns in it. I am writing all this data from the table to a PDF and I am able to generate a PDF. 
    This generated PDF clips the data on the right side, i.e. it shows few columns only.
    I need to have the horizontal scroll bar for the generated pdf output file.
    Can anyone guide me how to achieve this.
    Regards,
    JayPal.

  • InDesignCC. How to keep image quality with exporting Interactive PDF?

    Hello everyone, I'm using InDesign CC, I'm exporting a PDF that has PNG images, the problem is that I'm loosing the sharpness and the pureness in the images after exporting the file into PDF Interactive... the Settings I'm using for Image Handling are Compression: Automatic , JPEG Quality: Maximum, Resolution PPI: 300..
    The file size is "Letter" with web Intent (792px x 612px) the images I'm using are big and have great quality, can anyone tell me how I export into PDF interactive without loosig images quality? I want to keep this pureness and sharpness in the images
    Thanks in advance

    It depends on the image. Best way for us to advise you is to open your image, then go to Image > Image Size and upload a screen capture of the Image Size box with the readings.
    What you might have working against you is not enough pixels. Upsampling may just make it blurred. But we will see.
    300 ppi is also not carved in stone, you may get away with 200 ppi depending on where you are sending it for printing.
    And lastly, if you are paying a commercial printer to do this, it's best to consult with them and see what they can do.

  • How to Add Media to a Custom Frame That Preserves to Interactive PDF

    What I'm doing/trying to do:
    I have a custom object that I want to use as a frame in which the video would be placed. The object is a somewhat rectangular frame that I've custom made to fit over a portion of my background image.
    Adobe InDesign interactive pdf exports don't play any html embed codings I add (even after making sure the http:// is present) nor does the InDesign accept any of the video from URL links I put in from YouTube or Vimeo using the Add Media function. Therefore I tried using the actual media file and uploading it to my Adobe Indesign file. However, the video won't play or appear in my custom frame when I export it, but the video file will play when I plop it in without a frame. Before exporting I get the message: :
    So:
    A) What urls will Adobe Indesign ACTUALLY accept since all the ones I've used so far don't work?
    B) How do I add a video file to a custom frame that fits appropriately into the frame?
    C) How do I get URL based media to work in interactive pdfs?
    D) If I can't do what I'm trying to do as an interactive pdf what file should I be saving it as so that I can make it work?
    I hope that makes sense. Thanks in advance for the help!

    I have never yet heard of anyone who has successfully played a YouTube or Vimeo streaming video from an interactive PDF. You could search for some kind of a third party utility that claims to convert that to a video format. You should aim to create an MP4 file, preferably with H.264 encoding. I've also never read the description of someone who has done such a conversion, though it is theoretically possible.
    You will be unsuccessful in masking a video to play in a non-rectangular frame because in a PDF, the interactivity also is display above anything else on the page.

  • CS5 Interactive PDF - disappearing graphics and buttons

    I have been struggling with CS5 - just about every interactive aspect of it anyway. I have an ebook that I just brought into CS5 from CS4. Each chapter in the book has interactive features such as buttons, anchored graphics, embedded video, html links, etc. I had been struggling with creating the interactive PDF (the whole spread thing) but fixed that with a script found in this forum (Thank You). Even still, I am struggling with random graphics and buttons that disappear off the page during pdf creation. One graphic was moved (not by design) into the bleed space of the document. All of these weird interactive bugs are just about more than enough. It is not an option to create the buttons in Acrobat... there are just too many. Anyone else have similar problems or have a solution I could try. I am close to the point of having to return to CS4 (which would suck to have to redo the edits made again).

    I am sure that is true and makes very good sense for many projects.
    This project is an ever evolving project... a price list that has evolved even from CS. I am in the process of creating it all new again, fresh in CS5 as a side project. Unfortunately, deadlines always push us to make do with what we can and with what we have. I was hopeful that CS5 would take away some of the pains I had been dealing with in CS4, but truly I was just uncovering more crud than I was able to work around. There will be a time when CS5 is good enough... just not today.

  • Images won't show in pdf file

    I create a file in Publisher and insert images as .gif files (have also saved as .jpeg). No problem. But as soon as I convert them over to pdf the image is replaced by a gray box. Now if I print the pdf file the images show and print just fine. Why would they change during conversion? Also this just started today. When I left work on Friday my images were just fine in pdf. The only thing I was attempting to do was adjust the display preferences so the pages started out smaller rather than zoomed out to 151%, which it was defaulting too.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    Thanks so much. I have no idea how that got turned off, but it was.
    Thanks again

  • Horizontal scrolling. Help with large images.

    Putting together a .pdf publication for iPad.
    I have content that fits a standard iPad format BUT I also have these very long timelines (170cm x 21 cm). These need to be displayed zoomed in -  with the reader swiping right to accessing the remainder of the content. So a horizontal scroll! Whenever I test it on the iPad it display the full image (so zoomed out and tiny). The other images are displaying fine.
    So how do I make sure I view them as I require?
    Thanks!

    I also need this feature, to view and mark up street plans that are long narrow landscape format pages with "match lines" at the left and right sides.  What I want is similar to Acrobat's existing "Enable Scrolling" -- but in the horizontal direction.  Planners need this for road and path plans.  Musicians and composers need this for viewing multi-page sheet music so they can browse the entire "timeline" of the piece.  And as the OP notes, schedule planners need this for reviewing timelines such as Gantt charts.
    Adobe, please add this feature.  I'll gladly pay for an upgrade (currently using Acrobat Pro XI Mac).

  • Broad Question - Horizontal Scrolling Slideshow with Still Images

    Hi everyone,
    I have to make a horizontal scrolling slideshow using many images of different filetypes, sizes and DPI in Premiere Pro CS5.5.  I have tried a few different methods but each has its own problems:
    1. Arrange still images horizontally in the timeline, adjacent to eachother, and apply a custom Push video transition between each one.  This is a consistent method that doesnt require much work but it's tough to control the amount of whitespace between the images, especially when the images are all different proportions.
    2. Arrange still images both horizontally and vertically in the timeline, so that there is no white space between the images (the images overlap across multiple video lanes).  Then, set up motion fx for the position of the image for each clip.  This is tedious and I have to make every clip the same size and make sure the distance each clip travels (in the motion fx) is the same. So for instance, I have to set the starting key to 1200 on the x-axis, and the ending key to -300, for every single image (tedious when there are many).  Another problem with this is that it becomes very difficult to change the duration of the motion fx once ive set it up for many.
    3. To have an easier time composing the arrangement of images, I just make a single giant image by laying out dozens of photos in InDesign, then export a very wide jpeg.  The great thing about this is it's fast, easy, and the composition is exactly how i want it.  The bad thing is that premiere doesn't handle many megapixel images well, and furthermore the image quality is horrific compared to the quality of importing individual images. 
    The biggest problem with all of these is the image quality (extremely poor compared to viewing the source images on their own) and the animation smoothness (all three methods produce very jittery and erratic videos).  The biggest question I have is: should I even be doing a slideshow in Premiere?  Can someone recommend a better application I should be using for something like this?  Do i have to learn Flash?  I am not trying to make an interactive thing, just a video/animation where I hit play and dozens of images scroll horizontally, at the same speed, with a lot of control over the scaling of the images and their horizontal and vertical arrangement (the amount of whitespace between them). 
    Thanks for everyone's time and help!

    Don't know if it is still being sold, but Grass Valley's Imaginate was the perfect application for your intended purpose. There are many others as well, but PR is not the program of choice for this.

  • Poor image quality from Interactive PDF

    HELP!
    A logo that is placed in InDesign and exported as an Interactive PDF isn't displaying correctly.
    The client says it's corrupted when viewed on a laptop. Certain letters in the logo seem longer than others and some appear thicker.
    It's an RGB vector file. I've tried ai, eps, pdf, png, jpeg. I've redrawn the letters. I've copied and pasted it into another document. I've reduced the scale of it. I've copied it from illustrator straight into Indesign.
    I've changed the image handling compression, JPEG Quality and Resolution in the export to Interactive PDF settings.
    I don't know what else to try.
    The client says at 200% the logo looks ok in acrobat, but in full screen mode the problem comes back.
    Please help!

    The letter 'I' looks longer and wider.

  • Indesign CS5 - png images blur in interactive PDF

    I use CS5 to create client documents and beginning to learn how to make PDF documents interactive.  We use .png files which export to PDF (print) with no problem either on screen or when printed, but when the same file is exported to PDF (interactive) the images are blurred both on the screen and when printed.  The png files are created in Photoshop. Does anyone know how I can solve this problem and have sharp images in interactive PDFs???  I'm hoping its something basic and easy!

    Hi Eugene
    Many thanks for your suggestion.  I've tried it and it works and glad it was something simple

  • How to: add images into an Interactive PDF

    I was wondering if it was possible to add images into an interactive PDF once it has been sent to someone. The PDFs are forms that need to be filled by a client via their iPads using Adobe Expert, and they may need to occasionally attach images to the document and be able to edit these images (i.e. circle parts of the image to highlight them) then send these PDF's back to myself.
    Is there a way this can be done?
    Thanks

    There is no program on the iPad called Adobe Expert. I think you mean Adobe Reader.
    Adobe Reader lets you fill in forms but not to attach images. If you wish to make a request of the Adobe Reader product manager, you can post on the Adobe Reader for iOS forum here:

  • How to adjust the space between images in a carousel or images with horizontal scroll

    I use the next steps to create a carousel or horizontal scroll of images:
    Webcenter portal: Spaces
    Spaces
    Manage Settings
    Pages
    Create page
    Content management
    Content presenter
    Add images with Plus Icon
    It works, but between every image has a lot of space, can you tell me how to reduce the space between every image.

    Remove line 234 in your HTML code.
    <p>& n b s p</p>
    This is a redundant line of code. Your spacing should get resolved.
    PS: I've given spaces between the tag because otherwise this forum would not display the line correctly.

  • How Can I disable page scrolling when creating an interactive PDF using InDesign?

    I'm attempting to create an interactive PDF portfolio with links from the homepage to gallery pages and projects etc, but it seems useless if I can't stop the PDF pages from scrolling? Can anyone help?
    I have InDesign CS5.5 and Adobe Acrobat Pro.
    Thanks,

    scrolling through the pages
    There is nothing you can do to prevent a viewer from navigating on their own through a PDF. One method would be to have the PDF open in Full Screen mode, this hides the navigation tab. But a viewer can use their arrow keys to go page to page, ignoring the links within the PDF. And the viewer can hit the esc key to go back to normal view. Another option would be to use a swf export, indstead of pdf, but seriously depends on how you plan to distribute this portfolio.
