Play a Movie or a Sound Clip
Some PDF files may be multifaceted with multimedia, including sound, music and video clips.
Each movie and sound file usually includes a play area from which the media can be activated.
The play area typically appears on the PDF page as an image or a blank rectangle, but can also be
invisible. To play the media files, please make sure you have the necessary media player installed
on your computer.
To play a movie or a sound, please do the following:
Select the Hand tool , and click the play area of the movie or sound file.
Note: To protect your computer from viruses, Foxit PhantomPDF pops up a dialog box soliciting
your approval before playing multimedia files.
Remember choice until close the document – check this option means to apply this setting to
the media content which can be played directly without Multimedia Content dialog box pop-up
the next time you click to play the media content.
Adding a movie or a sound clip
Adding movies or sounds to PDFs is as easy as inserting an image. "Movies" are desktop video
files with formats such as FLV, AVI, QuickTime, and MPEG, and file extensions such
as .avi, .wmv, .mov, .qt, .mpg, and .mpeg. An animated GIF file always has a .gif file extension,
while ͞Sounds͟ are like midis, wavs, and mp3 files.
Note: If an alert message tells you that no media handler is available, you must install the
appropriate player before you can add clips to the PDF. For example, you must install QuickTime if
you want to embed an MOV file in a PDF.
