Howdy team.
I've created an interactive document for call centre staff and need to have some buttons spread out across the document that navigate to certain topics for quick and easy data entry. One pain point I have though, is that the inherit zoom setting I've applied to my buttons appears to be changing the zoom to fit the entire page on the screen.
Steps I've taken to design this:
1. Create bookmarks in InDesign
2. Create buttons with "Go to destination" action
3. Under action settings, selected "Inherit Zoom"
4. I've also tried changing the zoom default settings in acrobat pro.
Any solutions to this? Unforuntately I cannot share the document for company privacy reasons.

Hi Anshul, thanks for getting back to me.
I'm hoping there is a very simple step I am missing.
FYI: I am exporting as interactive PDF and not selecting "create tagged pdf" or "Create adobe layers"

Hi. I am having the same problem and I am using InDesign 17.0.1 and Acrobat Pro DC 2020 on a PC. When I create a PDF from a FrameMaker file, inherit zoom works fine. But with InDesign, it keeps reverting back to fit entire page. This has happened with every PDF file I've exported from InDesign, and it's been going on through several updates. I've attached two PDF files -- one made from ID and the other from FM.

Hi @jmyers2,
Sorry to hear about your experience. I was unable to replicate the issue. I checked on v17.1 of InDesign running on macOS v12.2. Would it be possible for you to share a download link to a sample InDesign document? I will check at my end. Also, please check and ensure Inherit zoom is selected. I am attaching a test InDesign & PDF file.
I will be looking forward to your response.
Regards,

Hi jmyers2,
I'm having the same problem. It looks like you have used the TOC function in InDesign. I've since learned that auto-generated TOCs and bookmarks from InDesign don't work with Inherit Zoom in Adobe PDFs. See here: https://accessible-digital-documents.com/blog/pdf-links-zoom/
It should be noted that some links cannot be edited in this way. These include InDesign auto-generated tables of content and bookmarks. These should always be manually generated in InDesign, using Hyperlink Destinations.

Unfortunately, you have to set your zoom per bookmark in Acrobat. InDesign does not set this.

Mike, Thanks for the clarification.
