Reply To: Please help! interactive pdf problem!

You are absolutely right: We agree on just about everything except the title of your article. And I do not begrudge you that, because one must always take article titles with a grain of salt! It’s the internet!

You don’t call onscreen PDFs “interactive” because they don’t have animations, buttons, audio and video. I get that. I do call them “interactive” because people interact with them.

Do I want all the interactivity that I could have with HTML?! Of course! I’ve been pushing Adobe and other people on the PDF standards bodies for years about this. It’s crazy how limited PDF is. But it’s not dead. ;-)
