Learning to make Portfolio templates with Flash

Since you do not have any experience with action scripting it may be better to do your portfolio in acrobat as an interactive presentation. When I graduated from school some years ago I did my portfolio like that and it created great response because everybody could see it and helped me launched my first job. All you have to do is create your template pages in illustrator, indesign or any other layout program, export as pdf and add interactivity in acrobat like transitions, rollover buttons, hidden fields, etc.

If you want to learn flash there are other resources that provide online training for a yearly or monthly fee. But I don't think I can post their websites here. Maybe if you email me privately :)

Thanks for the response. I have done portfolio type set ups in Acrobat before but with the new Portfolio feature and only having 4 choices for layouts I want to get to where I can set up custom layouts. It's the thrill of getting in and doing something more with Acrobat.

On the [url=http://www.adobe.com/devnet/acrobat/]Adobe Developer Center[/url] website, you can learn more about creating custom navigators by downloading and submitting a form.

Thanks. I have never had to request information this way before. It almost seems this is really secret stuff. Anyone can do this but we we're going to make you work hard to find out how to do it.

Anyway I do thank you for the lead. So far you are the only one who has provided some kind of useful answer.

Can someone provide a link to the new templates Adobe recently released?

i reg for this "On the Adobe Developer Center website, you can learn more about creating custom navigators by downloading and submitting a form." 2 weeeks ago, until now, no respond from Adobe. Anything is wrong in my case or it is nor mal?

I did too and still have not heard anything.

The form mentions that requests from free email addresses (Yahoo, Hotmail, or other such services) are not permitted and will not be considered. You might try a different email address -- if you've previously submitted a request via a free email service.

I didn't use a free email service but the one from work.

I am also waiting to hear back and I did not use a free email service.

i also used the office email. No feedback. Waiting................

I've sent all of you an email message. Please reply when you have the opportunity.

Thanks,
Lori

i replied already. Waiting...
