Interactive Features

InDesign offers a number of interactive features that make it possible to create forms, multimedia eBooks, and other PDF documents. If you plan on creating PDF documents that contain hyperlinks, bookmarks, buttons, or even sounds and movies, it’s more productive to build them into a template beforehand (Figure 1.14). You can then produce a document that’s intended for print media and repurpose it for an interactive PDF as well.

Figure 1.14. This template contains several interactive elements, including a movie, several buttons, and a hyperlink.
