Add multimedia files to a PDF
Most multimedia file types can be converted to FLV format when you add them. These files include ASF, ASX, AVI,
3GPP, MOV, MP4, MPEG, MPG, QT, and WMV files. Mp3 audio files can also be added to a PDF for playback on
any platform. Video that is H.264 compliant is not automatically converted to FLV format.
Open the PDF.

3 Drag or double-click to select the area on the page where you want the video or sound to appear.
If you double-click the page, Acrobat places the upper-left corner of the video where you clicked. If you drag an area
on the page, the media is placed within the area. The play area of the video is the exact size of the video frame (if
Acrobat is able to read the video clip dimensions).
4 Add a URL in the Name field, or click Browse to find the media file, and then click Open.
For URLs, use the full file address, including the video filename extension, such as .flv or .mp4.

Create Legacy Multimedia Content
Acrobat. Legacy media can be larger than converted files and also requires additional media players to view.
Adobe recommends converting video and audio files to allow play back across platforms without the need for
additional multimedia players. Converted media requires Adobe Reader 9 or Acrobat 9 for play back. Users who
attempt to play converted media in earlier versions of Adobe Reader or Acrobat are prompted to upgrade to Adobe
Reader 9 or Acrobat 9.
