I thought of creating a pdf file that plays an embedded flash movie if the reader being used is reader /acrobat 9, else (with earlier versions of reader) just shows an image. I could not figure out whether it can be done in acrobat 9 pro extended. Thanks in advance for any ideas..
Inbuilt flash movie or static image as options

gemmi,
Janet Frick's video tutorial
[url]http://www.acrobatusers.com/tutorials/2008/06/a9video_adding_multimedia[/url]
is, I believe, the one Dimitri refers to.
n.b., When you click the "close" button, upon completion of the video,
you land at a "Page not found" page. Just click your browser's back button to return
to the video's page in the Tutorials section.
Be well...

Yes, this can be done. Below is a link to a video here at AUC that goes over the different steps on adding the video and putting in a poster image for that will show if viewed in earlier versions of Adobe Reader.

Hope this helps,
