Scrolling text in a PDF

Question

Working on a project in ID and have been asked if there is a way to have scrollable text on the final PDF file. From all I am seeing the answer is no but thought I would reach out and ask. Thanks!

No, you cannot make scrolling text in InDesign to PDF.

Yes, you can create a PDF form text field in InDesign and export as interactive PDF. Form fields are not directly part of the PDF, to FDF , which are linked to their PDF.
