Trevor:

You can refer to
http://pdf.editme.com/files/pdfrefNewFeatures/Adobe%20Extensions%20to%20ISO%
2032000-1.pdf

See section 13.7 Rich Media

I have only seen special 3D models or Flash-based widgets. This differs from
the core XEP product which allows for a multi-media application inserted
into a container. Inserting a Flash or video or audio requires only
inserting a single object into the PDF document and the PDF container has
various players that allow them to be played in the content.

In contrast, A PDF RichMedia annotation is normally a set of "files" all
stored and referenced internally within the PDF. For instance, you could
insert a SWF application that generates charts from our partner AnyChart
(http://www.anychart.com) and then the data that "feeds" the chart can come
from either inside the PDF, or could be served from a URL if the user allows
the PDF to contact the web to "update" itself. We have various applications
that do this, think of a stock portfolio report that updates itself with all
the pretty charts everytime you open it. I have also seen 3d models used in
this way, embedding a 3d viewer and the 3d model of the product. Typically
again this is Flash but I think there are other non-Flash based viewers
around.

In regards to PDF Multimedia files, are they all Flash based?

Betty:

No, there is no support for indexed collections of PDF files (which is what
a PDX file is). RenderX does standalone PDF files and supports today:

Out of the box:

PDF including support for Flash, Video, Audio, Comment Annotations and File
Attachments PDF-X (print solutions) PDF-A (archive solutions)

And has add-ins to support:

PDF Acroforms (fillable PDF forms)
PDF Multimedia (interactive Flash/3D/etc. inserted into PDF)

Is there a mechanism to create a PDX file in RenderX?  I can't find any
mention for creating this file, except directly using Adobe Acrobat.

Thanks!

Betty
