I'm working on a map and would like to include a "Help" navigation tab that would explain how to use the map. Is this possible? If so, how?

My Product Information:
Acrobat Standard 8.1.2, Windows

Hi toym8r,

No, you cannot create custom navigation tabs with Acrobat. You could create a button labeled Help with a link to your help file, or you could create a custom dialog with Help information.

Hope that helps,

That will work. I managed to insert the button, but for some reason the label doesn't show up. Only the Tooltip does if I hover over it.

You have to provide the capiton on the Options" tab of the form field properties for the button.
