Enabling PDFs for Smart Presenters using Adobe Acrobat

Enabling PDFs for Smart Presenters using Adobe Acrobat

Note: Presently the Prepare Form feature appears to require Adobe Acrobat Pro - a licensed version of the product.

This is a quick guide on modifying your PDF presenters/catalogues/lookbooks/blads etc. to enable them for the Smart presentation mode. This mode enables the iPad user to simple tap on the zone you specify and they can order the products directly from the PDF.
Creating your campaigns this way is very efficient as it means there is almost zero admin time in creating the campaign in Inzant Sales, you simply create a campaign with the type "Smart Presentation" and upload the PDF - no product linking required.

To create the form elements for each product zone please follow the instructions below - this needs to be done for every product you want to be orderable within the PDF.
  1. Select the Prepare Form Tool


  1. Select the document you wish to modify to a Smart Presentation and click Start



  1. Scroll through the document to where you want the Link to be.

  1. Click the Button tool (OK).


  1. You can then position the Button over the zone you wish to be selectable.

    Note: The quantity will display in the centre of the zone so position the button accordingly.

  2. Add a name to the button using the following format
The format of the Button Name for a single item needs to be as follows with no additional characters:

Code:ExampleProductCode

If you wish to add a link for multiple products on a Button (Zone) then the Button Name should be in the format as follows, with the "|" character separating the product codes.
This will display a multiple product popover.
