PDF functionality on webPages (HTML5)
Copy link to clipboard
Copied
Hi
may somebody can help or consult? We are creating often interactif pdf files (source is Acrobat and InDesign) with additional logical functions (by javascript) but also by acrobat itself (required fields for example). They do work very well under readers (Adobe but also others) but rarely directly in the browser (s plugin).
1) Where could I find some informations what is supported/working in which browser?
2) Is there no tool around that converts such a pdf to a working html5 page? AEM Forms?
Thanks very much for any help
regards Urs

If you user any PDF interactive features, including forms, then you cannot rely on any Browser or Mobile PDF viewer to preform correctly.
See if the PDF Embed API solve this problem. It's free.

Use the Acrobat JavaScript Reference early and often
