i notice when I logged in to my acrobat.com account and upload my pdf document, I noticed there is a view where my pdf document looks like you are flipping through a book. There is also an option on the right side where you can embed the pdf into your webpage. Is there anyway to set preference so when I embed the pdf into my webpage it will be the page flip view. Or to set up a link to the document already in page flip view

thanks,
Nick

The previews in Acrobat.com aren't showing you the PDF - they show an SWF (of the document converted into Flash). Artistic stuff like page turning is a Flash feature, so when you embed the PDF itself, they're not available.

The 'copy embed code' link in Acrobat.com also inserts a Flash version, but it's not got the same layout options as the screens inside Acrobat.com have. Remember Acrobat.com is still only a beta program, and so feature requests for these and many other things are being collected and considered.

If you avoid Acrobat.com entirely then there are many third-party products which will convert a file into a SWF book with 'page flipping' - just google for "SWF page flip". InDesign CS4 does it out of the box, and there are free and paid-for versions of the third-party tools with various feature sets.
