MemberThat’s what this topic is all about. Option “Defined by driver” does not work this way unfortunately. It always keeps the “paper size” at document’s 100% so the result is cropped.

MemberThanks for deep study, Bob.
You are probably right that the source of the scaling problem are small parts of my pictures. I tried to look at other ones that have problems with scaling and there also were small parts that made “problems”. I think there is probably a bug in InDesign because there are lots of other small parts that work OK. In any case, thanks for your reply and help.To answer the questions “why not AI” – I create illustrated books for children (or Tarot cards for adults :)) and it is fine for me to have fully editable pictures right in the InDesign document. I can easily change colors and edit anything without switching to another application. And the drawing capabilities of InDesign are good enough for me to draw anything I need. So this is the reason why I am trying to stay “inside of InDesign” if possible.
BTW as you like my little animals, this cow says Hi and thanks to YOU. Enjoy the cow!

MemberDont think so. As you can see, it is a very simple drawing, all the shapes contain several points only.

Member“they are not scalable” means that I can not scale them. :) when I try to scale (manually or by typing 85% for example) InDesign does not allow the operation – nothing happens, InDesign only displays a message like “value not allowed”.
here is a link to the InDesign CS5 document if it helps: https://www.clovecenebojse.cz/n…..alable.zip
If you remove the tongue from the illustration, everything will work OK.

MemberI have finally found some solution – i must export the interactive PDF with the MP3 inserted on the first page. Then I open it in Acrobat, here rightclick on the music element, and in the dialog choose “open in floating window” (and specify the width + height of this window, which can be also 1×1 pixel, if you want it to be very small). I use 301×34 pixels – it creates a fine player icon over my PDF.
