Interactive Show/Hide on Mobile PDF form

New Here ,
Feb 06, 2019 Feb 06, 2019

I have created an interactive PDF using adobe InDesign. The PDF works great on a desktop. However, when you open the pdf (in the adobe PDF READER APP) on mobile devices, it does not allow for the show/hide feature to display.

For example, I have created a button that once tapped, it will display an informative pop-up that pertains to that specific section where the button is. This works great on the desktop, but does not work at all on Mobile devices.

Help is greatly appreciated.

These features usually rely on scripts, which are (for the most part) not supported on mobile devices. There's nothing we can do about it, but hope that Adobe implements those features one day. Alternatively, you can try other PDF viewers with better scripting support. For example, PDF Expert by Readdle (for iOS devices) does a pretty good job, but it's not free...

It's a limitation.  The mobile client platform doesn't use as much Acrobat Javascript as the Desktop client.
