          PDFs as Sources for Presentations

          PDFs as Sources for Presentations

          To create PDF source files for Intelligent Content presentations, include all presentation content in a single PDF. Each page of the PDF source file shows as a separate presentation page in the presentation player.

          Required Editions

          Available in: Lightning Experience
          Available in: Enterprise and Unlimited Editions with Life Sciences Cloud, Life Sciences Cloud for Customer Engagement Add-on license, and the Life Sciences Customer Engagement managed package.

          File Name Recommendations for PDF Source Files

          Follow these guidelines for PDF file names.

          • Limit the file name size to 960 bytes or fewer.
          • Valid characters are A-Z, a-z, and 0-9.
          • For presentations that admins upload from Life Sciences Customer Engagement:
            • These special characters are supported: -, ., _, !, *, ’, (, )
            • These special characters aren’t supported: /, \, and combinations `“ and `”.
            • We recommend avoiding any other special characters.
          • For presentations uploaded via the content management Connect API, special characters aren’t supported.
          • Format file extensions in lowercase.
          • Double-byte kana, katakana, and numbers are supported, but different operating systems can cause mutations.

          Content Recommendations for PDF Source Files

          Follow these guidelines for presentation content in PDF source files.

          • Upload landscape versions of the PDF files.
          • Create PDF presentations that are less than 1 GB or 200 pages.
          • To make sure that PDF content displays correctly on iOS, test PDFs in the Preview app on an Apple device.
          • To avoid performance issues and make sure that PDFs render correctly on devices with low memory, optimize the PDF file structure. For example, use the print production tools in Adobe Acrobat to flatten the PDF. We recommend these parameters:
            • Raster/Vector Balance: 0
            • Line Art and Text resolution: 160 pixels per inch (PPI), or up to 192 PPI for newer iPad Pros
            • Gradient and Mesh resolution: 160 PPI, or up to 192 PPI for newer iPad Pros
            • Color: JPEG
            • Apply to PDF: All pages in document
          • To create thumbnail images, PDF pages are cropped based on the first page's crop box. To show full images, remove the crop marks, or set the crop box to fit the part of the page that you want to show.
          • To enable navigation between pages in the presentation player, add navigation links to specific pages in the PDF presentation source file.

          Limitations for PDF Source Files

          Videos aren’t supported in PDF source files for presentations.
