As you said yourself: it works in SWF preview and PDF is NOT SWF, those functions will not work in PDF, only hyperlink types (like TOC, go to page through a hyperlink etc) will work in Acrobat, but may not work in any other reader. Forget the rest for PDF, and please, please forget SWF forever...!

Tengo un problema con el pdf interactivo, tengo botones con navegación dentro del propio documento (para desplegar pantallas,etc.), pero al exportar en pdf interactivo en el pc funciona todo correctamente, pero al abrirlo desde el teléfono, no funcionan, he probado a abrirlo con diferentes visualizadores (el predeterminado de iphone, adobe acrobat, etc.) y nada. hay alguna manera de que pueda funcionar esta interactividad de botones desde el móvil?

Interactive PDF, beyond simple navigation, is nothing short of a crapshoot and when viewed in third-party PDF readers or mobile devices even that may not work. You'll need to rethink this project.

 

Also, please note, this discussion is five years old. Please do not do this in the future as you'll get far more help by starting something new. I'm locking this to avoid any future confusion.

Yes, because the SWF preview shows what would work if you would export to SWF, but you do not do that, you export to PDF. PDF is not SWF and PDF does not support Flash options.
