3 Select the target image and select Hidden Until Triggered at the bottom of the Buttons panel.

The image needs to be hidden in the exported document so that it can be displayed when the source button is moused
over or clicked.

4 Select the source button and create two different actions, one to show the target image and a second to hide the

target image.

If you want the image to appear when the mouse hovers over the source button, use the On Roll Over and On Roll Off
events. If you want the image to appear when you click the source button and disappear when you release it, use the
On Click and On Release events. In either case, use the Show/Hide Buttons action to display and hide the target button.
See “

Make buttons interactive

” on page 559.

Changing PDF options for buttons

to select the button.

2 From the Buttons panel menu, choose PDF Options.

Set the button tab order

The tab order determines the next (or previous) field to receive focus when a user presses Tab (or Shift+Tab) in the
PDF or SWF document. The tab order includes buttons on hidden layers, but not buttons on master pages.

2 Choose Object > Interactive > Set Tab Order.

3 Select each button you want to move and drag it to its new position, or click the Move Up and Move Down buttons.

When you’re done, click

OK.

If you use Acrobat to edit the PDF and add more buttons or form fields to the page, you may need to specify a new tab
order in Acrobat.

Digital Publishing Suite overview

The Adobe Digital Publishing Suite is a set of tools and hosted services that lets publishers create and distribute
publications on tablet devices such as the Apple iPad. These digital publications are called folios.

With InDesign, you can create folios and preview them on a tablet device and on a desktop previewer. However, a
subscription to the Digital Publishing Suite is necessary to build a custom viewer. Publishers can distribute their digital
publications by submitting them to the Apple Store or to the Android Market. You can make folios available to a
publisher who has a subscription to the Digital Publishing Suite.

The Folio Builder and Overlay Creator panels let you create digital publications for tablet devices.

To access the panels:

Overlay Creator

Choose Window > Extensions > Overlay Creator.

Folio Builder

Choose Window > Extensions > Folio Builder.
