I want an image to appear above/next to text when I hover over it

[Guest]

Hey,

I am creating PDFs and I want to know if it is possible for me to edit text so that when I hover over the text a small/medium image can display next to the text.

Example:

I have a paragraph where there is the phrase "Ace of Spades". This phrase is highlighted in blue and when I hover over it a small image box is displayed with an image of a Ace of Spades.

Context: I have many specific things I want to mention in my PDF that have a desirable need to be seen when hovered over.

Thank you,

Ziggurat

This can be achieved using a script. You would basically need two buttons: One to hold the image and to show/hide the other button when you hover above it or click it.

Take a look at this tutorial, which shows how to display "floating text": Floating Text on PDF Documents - KHKonsulting LLC

For an image, you would use the second method (show a hidden text field), but instead of the text field, you will show a hidden button that uses your image as it's button face. To do that, select "icon only" for the button layout.
