Enhance interactivity/search with buttons and and text fields
When PDFs are primarily intended for screen display, form
fields can be used to enhance interactivity (for example, buttons
with tool tips or different states) or to provide enhanced search
actions (such as selection of a search phrase from a pre-defined
list of phrases instead of typing it). Fields can be specified
to be displayed on-screen but not printable (so that buttons
or other fields do not clutter the printed output).
Adding form fields manually after creation of the PDF is labor-intensive,
and all work invested will have to be repeated every time the
source documents are updated.
Using FrameMaker-to-Acrobat TimeSavers & Form Assistant,
you can take advantage of all of FrameMaker capabilities to author
documents that, upon conversion to PDF, will automatically contain
the specified buttons and fields.
