folio format and Android

Sep 16, 2011 11:09 AM

Dear Common Wisdom:

One of my clients tells me he is enjoying viewing my folio magazine on his HTC Inspire, Android device.

Didn't know he could do that and can't image what it must look like!

Is there a summary somewhere of (1) compatibility of folio docs to Android devices and (2) what we can do to optimize a folio file for Android?

Thanks!

CJ

When you view 1024x768 folios on an Android device, the folio is letterboxed and scaled as needed. You can create folio renditions to avoid scaling and reduce letterboxing. See this topic:

Bob,

I've read the article.

I am correct is thinking, then, that I all need to do is
create a set of folios with
the same name,
but different sizes and when someone downloads from the server the dimensions will be detected by the server on acrobat.com and
automatically provide the correct rendition?

Regards,
CJ

Also, on a practical level, are we created entirely new folios in this process? or are the different renditions of each article saved in the same foler?

Thanks!
