Adding multimedia

Add multimedia to PDFs
Adding video, sound, and interactive content transforms PDFs into multidimensional communication tools that
increase interest and engagement in your documents.
Acrobat Pro Extended automatically converts video to FLV files. This format ensures both high-quality viewing and
compatibility across computer platforms. FLV files are also compact, so converting multimedia to this format is helps
reduce the size of multimedia PDFs.
All multimedia that is developed in Flash® as well as multimedia that is H.264 compliant can be played back in Adobe
Reader® 9 and later. (H.264, also known as MPEG-4 part 10, is a video compression standard that provides high quality
video without substantially increasing file size.) Video files of varying formats and filename extensions can be H.264
compliant.
Media files in other formats can be played back in earlier versions of Adobe Reader. However, users must install the
appropriate application (such as QuickTime or Windows Media Player) to play the multimedia.
Another way to add multimedia is by entering a URL that refers to a video file or streaming media. Three types of URLs
can be used: RTMP, HTTP, and HTTPS. Flash Media Servers (FMS) use RTMP to host FLV files and H.264-compliant
media files. On HTTP and HTTPS servers, FLV files and H.264-compliant MOV and MP4 files are supported.
Interactive content developed in Flash and produced as SWF files (.swf) can be added to PDFs to provide
complimentary tools for text. Examples of applications developed in Flash include an RSS Reader, calculator, and
online maps. For more information about the interactive applications that you can download from Adobe, see
