I would like to know if anyone can tell me if it's possible to embed an animated gif in to a "pdf" that I create in Indesign
Thanks

Hi --

Yes, you can embed the animated gif, but you'll only see the first frame. Acrobat doesn't interpret the sequence of frames. Alternatively, you can use a video format or SWF which will play in Acrobat.
