Question
intercative pdf not working in Edge browser
I have developed an interactive PDF in Adobe InDesign and exported it using Adobe PDF (Interactive). The PDF contains multiple buttons that use Show/Hide Buttons and Forms, layer visibility control, page navigation, and objects set as "Hidden Until Triggered".
The PDF works as expected when opened in Adobe Acrobat Reader, where all interactive buttons correctly show and hide layers and perform the assigned actions.
However, when the same PDF is opened in Microsoft Edge, the interactive functionality does not work correctly. Some buttons are visible but do not respond, and the show/hide actions are not executed.
My questions are:
- Does Microsoft Edge fully support InDesign interactive PDF features such as Show/Hide Buttons and Forms and Hidden Until Triggered objects?
- Are there specific export settings in InDesign that improve compatibility with Edge?
- Is this a limitation of Edge's built-in PDF viewer, or could there be an issue with the PDF export itself?
- Has anyone successfully deployed an InDesign interactive PDF with advanced button actions that works directly within Edge?
