What is the correct way to add sound to each page and then hide that ugly little grey sound file that can be seen when published. I have tried creating buttons on the A master page, one to go back to the front page, then previous page, next page etc. Then I have 'placed the sound on the 1st page, gone to media and selected on page load. Previously tried selecting both the 'on page load' and 'stop on page turn' (when I published that one, All the sound files seemed to play at once)
There are a number of digital formats available. Each has advantages (features) and disadvantages. To get an overall look at what is available have a look at this online video tutorial from Lynda.com (you can get a 30-day free trial): InDesign: Interactive Documents
By the way, which version of InDesign and OS do you have?
Hi, thanks for the reply, I have mac OS sierra and am up to date with Indesign, I have also watched the Lynda.com on interactive documents. (I will watch that bit again though) I tried a number of different ways.
I am planning on uploading it to Itunes to sell hopefully, but if it doesn't work on some devices, basically I'm screwed!
Thinking about getting the whole story narrated in one sound file, next, instead of page by page, thoughts? I would be very grateful for a suggestion!
One key area I missed was to hyperlink the pages that were targeted, so lynda.com helped when I reviewed it, just testing it again, so thanks you were helpful, I will look at the plugin!
