What is an InDesign Interactive Document?
An interactive InDesign document is designed for digital viewing rather than print. It can include buttons, hyperlinks, video, audio, slideshows and form fields that allow users to interact with the content. Interactive PDFs and HTML5 publications created in InDesign are commonly used for presentations, digital brochures and marketing publications.
