Inserting Acrobat 3D to a Dreamweaver Web site

Inserting Acrobat 3D to a Dreamweaver Web site
Sun, 6 Apr 2008 12:03:34 -0700
I would like to insert an Acrobat 3D file in a cell of a table in Dreamweaver.
Can't figure it out.

Using Dreamweaver CS3
Acrobat 3D 7.0.9
Acrobat 3D Toolkit 7.0.7

Thanks in advance.

Here is an example of Adobe Reader acting as a browser plugin for displaying 3D
content (Example tested with Firefox). The 3D model covers the whole page of the
embedded PDF and the settings of the PDF are such that the GUI elements of AR
are hidden.

This is what I am looking for.

How do I insert the 3D-PDF into a cell of a web site being developed with
Dreamweaver CS3? I don't see any hooks on Dreamweaver.

Thanks,

I don't know Dreamweaver. But doesn't it provide a tool for embedding PDF? If
not, you could use any other tool for embedding, say for Flash, and edit the
resulting html file manually.

I updated

ftp://ftp.fzd.de/private/grahn/embedpdf.html

to work now with Firefox *and* IE.

The required tags for embedding PDF are extremely simple. Look into
embedpdf.html (I cannot post them here).

Note that the EMBED tag for Firefox has to be nested into the OBJECT tag for
IE.

Thanks a lot for the information and your help.

Your first example worked fine with IE7.
I just got involved with Dreamweaver, so I am not too familiar with inserting
PDF. In the INSERT they allow gif, jpg, pnd, psd, but not PDF. And there is no
EMBED command.

Oh well, I will keep trying. For the time being I just have a link to a PDF file
that has the 3D file on it. Probably FLASH is the answer.

Thanks a lot,
