With so much digital files, PDF has been an extremely helpful format to keep things in order and secure, allowing us to contain large sums of information in one document. The key to eliminating confusion on modern-day paperwork is to know the ins and outs of technology and by simplifying it. In our Back to Office Guide, we downloaded a menu icon from online and linked that icon on every page to the first page of our document.īy adding buttons, this adds a sense of engagement with users and a touch of creative flair rather than using a static document that users can only read and scroll down.Online documents have paved its way into making our world easier and accessible. They can go back to the original table of contents page by adding a Menu Button. You can add buttons that when clicked will take users directly to any section within the PDF.
If you are internally linking to the same document, you can select ‘Go to Page View’ under the Link Action options and choose the exact page view that you would want someone to see once they click that button. Under the option panel, make the Link Type: Invisible in order for the button to be shown. Next, draw the link right over the button you designed. Once you click ‘Edit PDF’ click on ‘Link’ from the tool bar at the top and then click ‘Add/ Edit Web or Document Link’.
Once in Acrobat, click ‘ Edit PDF‘ from the tools. The advantage of designing your own button in your design program is that you can practically design them however you want! In our Back to Office Guide, we designed our buttons from within InDesign by drawing a square, adding a background color and title and inserting an icon on the top. In your design program, use different shapes and tools to design your buttons. The video is then imported directly onto the PDF and becomes clickable for anyone to watch! Users can also choose their own thumbnail for the video by clicking on ‘Create Poster from File’ under Poster Image. There’s also an ‘Advanced Options’ where a user can get creative and do things to the video such as have it load right when the PDF opens or when the video is clicked on. You can add your own video from your computer or you can find a video from online and use the video URL. Once you draw your box, your ‘ Insert Video‘ box appears. Once you select Add Video, draw a box over your video placeholder where you want the video to be positioned. Next, after you have clicked on ‘Rich Media’, from the top menu you can select to add a button, sound or video. When you bring your PDF into Acrobat, click on the ‘Tools’ option and then click on ‘ Rich Media‘. For best results, when your designing your document, draw a placeholder where you want your video to be.
