Reply To: CS5 Button states

I'm still having a number of issues with the whole interactive pdf concept. Although I'm finding clients are very interested in the possibilities, so I'm trying to resolve a number of issues:

On export to pdf acrobat clearly interprets all buttons as fields, and highlights them accordingly – so the recipient of the PDF will see the blue form strip at the top of their document asking them to fill out the form.

Acrobat turns these buttons into fields regardless and you cannot get rid of them without deleting the actual buttons in the PDF (the remove fields instruction actually deletes the element, it doesn't just remove the classification of field.

I'm still having issues as above with trying to move buttons – it appears very easy to move a button but not move the rollover state. This means that the states are in different locations.

You cannot move a button to a different layer (you're prompted with a request to ungroup the selection.

Buttons that are correctly stacked in order in the INDD doc and the preview appear in the wrong order in Acrobat. I've tried everything but it appears to rest on what order they were created in.

Any one else having these issues or similar. Buttons are a great concept, but they can be a little annoying to work with in volume.
