How insert GIF into DOC & convert to PDF ?

by nofearman Posted: 14 years ago 6 replies

I inserted a GIF file with an animated ORDER button in a WORD DOC file as a hyperlink. The animation was lost after inserting into WORD. Then when I converted the WORD to PDF the image no longer hd the hyperlink properties. Do I need a special tool to insert GIF in WORD and then when converting to PDF>>

Animated GIFs are not supported in PDFs. You need to convert it to a flash animation.

There are ways to embed video, audio, popups and stuff like
that into PDFs. Mostly with Adobe's software I think.

The animated GIF in a PDF is not something I would expect
to work, but this post on another forum explains some possible
ways to do it.:

  Hey Loren,
  Is that my favorite Horror star Lugosi?
  
  Just one more question. This is driving me crazy...Anyway to STOP the PDF Hyperlink security message ? After clicking on PDF links always get the "The document is trying to connect to.." then choice is to ALLOW or BLOCK. Anyway to skip or eliminate this, so user/customer doesn't get scared away?

Yes to the first.

No. I don't think you can turn off the hyperlink thing. It's part of
the reader program.
