Hello, I have created an Indesign document with a fundraising thermometer, then exported to pdf. It has been approved for print, but now my client wants a digital version where the managers can click each section of the thermometer as the goal is reached, and have it fill in with colour. I have created a document in Illustrator with 10% to 100% filled thermometers as artboards and also a version as layers. How do I import them so that the manager can click in the 10% area and it will show the 10% filled image? I have attached the document and a sample filled in part of the thermometer. Hope this makes sense...I'm desperate lol. Any help greatly appreciated!! Thank you in advance.

This can also be done using a script.
