Hello,

I am creating an interactive pdf that will be landscape orientation. I would like the pages to scroll to the left and right by swiping when viewed on a tablet instead of up and down. How can I create a pdf that will do this? The source document is in InDesign. Thank you.

When used in Acrobat (Reader), correct, it's impossible.

In a browser it depends on the plugin used by that browser to display PDF files.

I have been able to use page-by-page view on all my tablets and phones. Why can't I have this feature on my 2-in-1 computer????

Ok. Thanks for letting me know.

This is not a property of the PDF, but of the application used to display it. AFAIK, no Adobe application does that, though.

So you're saying that it's impossible to set a pdf to swipe horizontally when viewed on a tablet in Acrobat Reader? What about in a browser?
