Adding movies and sounds
Add movies or sounds to PDFs
You can add movies and sounds to PDFs in Windows if the media is playable in Windows Media Player, Flash Player,
RealPlayer, or QuickTime. In Mac OS, you can add QuickTime compatible movies and sounds to PDFs.
Before you add a movie or sound clip to a PDF, you must decide if your clip will be compatible—that is, playable—
in Acrobat 6 and later, or in earlier versions as well. If you choose the Acrobat 6 Compatible Media option, you have
many more choices, such as the option to embed the movie and add multiple renditions. However, users with earlier
versions of Acrobat will have to download Adobe Reader to play your clip.
You can provide different renditions of the movie that play if the users’ settings vary. For example, you may want to
include a low-resolution rendition for users with slow Internet connections.
Note: If an alert message tells you that no media handler is available, you must install the appropriate player before you
can add clips to the PDF. For example, you must install QuickTime if you want to embed an MOV file in a PDF.

Add a movie or sound clip
1 Choose Tools > Advanced Editing, and select either the Movie tool or the Sound tool .
2 Drag or double-click to select the area on the page where you want the movie or sound to appear. For movies, the
play area is the exact size of the movie frame (if Acrobat can read the movie clip’s dimensions).
3 In the dialog box that appears, select a compatibility setting for your clip:
Acrobat 6 (And Later) Compatible Media Provides access to all options, but the user must have version 6.0 or later
of Acrobat or Adobe Reader to play the clip.
Acrobat 5 (And Earlier) Compatible Media Ensures that your clip is available to users who have not yet upgraded
from version 5.0 or earlier of Acrobat or Adobe Reader. This option requires that you select media that is playable in
the QuickTime player.
4 To specify the clip, type the path or URL in the Location box, or click Browse (Windows) or Choose (Mac OS)
and double-click the movie file.
5 If you selected Acrobat 6 (And Later) Compatible Media, you can include the clip with the PDF by selecting
Embed Content In Document. This option will increase the file size of the PDF.
