Note: If Compatibility is set to Acrobat 6 (PDF 1.5) or later, tags are compressed for smaller file size. If the PDF is then
opened in Acrobat 4.0 or Acrobat 5.0, the tags will not be visible because those versions of Acrobat cannot decompress tags.
View PDF After Exporting
Opens the newly-created PDF file in the default PDF viewing application.
Create Acrobat Layers
Saves each InDesign layer as an Acrobat layer within the PDF. Also exports any printer’s
marks you’ve included to a separate marks and bleeds layer. The layers are fully navigable, which allows users of
Acrobat 6.0 and later to generate multiple versions of the file from a single PDF. For example, if a document will be
published in multiple languages, you can place the text for each language in a different layer. A prepress service
provider can then show and hide the layers to generate different versions of the document.
If you select the Create Acrobat Layers option when you export a book to PDF, identically named layers are merged
by default.
Note: Create Acrobat Layers is available only when Compatibility is set to Acrobat 6 (PDF 1.5) or later.
Export Layers
Determines whether visible layers and nonprinting layers are included in the PDF. You can use the
Layer Options settings to determine whether each layer is hidden or set as nonprinting. When exporting to PDF,
choose whether you want to export All Layers (including hidden and nonprinting layers), Visible Layers (including
nonprinting layers), or Visible & Printable Layers.
Bookmarks
Creates bookmarks for table of contents entries, preserving the TOC levels. Bookmarks are created from
the information specified in the Bookmarks panel.
Hyperlinks
Creates PDF hyperlink annotations for InDesign hyperlinks, table of contents entries, and index entries.
Visible Guides And Baseline Grids
Exports margin guides, ruler guides, column guides, and baseline grids currently
visible in the document. Grids and guides export in the same color used in the document.
Non-Printing Objects
Exports objects to which you have applied the Nonprinting option in the Attributes panel.
Interactive Elements
Exports all movies, sounds, and buttons. Acrobat 4.0 and 5.0 require that sounds be embedded
and movies be linked. Acrobat 6.0 and later support linking and embedding of movies and sounds.
Multimedia
Lets you specify how to embed or link movies and sounds:
•
Use Object Settings
Embeds movies and sounds according to the settings in the Sound Options and Movie
Options dialog box.
•
Link All
Links sound and movie clips placed in the document. If you choose not to embed media clips in the PDF
file, be sure to place the media clips in the same folder as the PDF.
•
Embed All
Embeds all movies and sounds, regardless of embed settings on individual objects.
Note: The Multimedia option is only available when Compatibility is set to Acrobat 6 (PDF 1.5) or later and Interactive
Elements is selected. When Compatibility is set to Acrobat 4 (PDF 1.3) or Acrobat 5 (PDF 1.4) and Interactive Elements
is selected, InDesign uses the settings in the Use Object Settings option in the Multimedia menu.
