Embed PDF in Storyline
When I publish the storyline project, it does indeed work, however, when I look through the published files, there is no sign of the PDF being packaged with the project...is this normal? The concern that the computer drive link is embedded and if I publish the project, the PDF file will not show. how does the Publishing handle the pdf file?
In this example, if you publish to web, the PDF is located in this folder (6HDPD8Szlj8):
This is a randomly named folder created when you insert the web object into your project. If you open the inspector under developer tools in the browser and navigate to Sources, you can find the file as well:
I also included the the project file, which doesn't seem to be attatched to my last post for some reason. It contains the web object attached to my original post.
Hi,
I discovered that the html page and the PDF file will only import correctly into a Web Object and be embedded, if the html page and the PDF file is not in the same folder as the .story file. when it is, the WebObjects folder does not get generated, leading to errors. I put the html file and the pdf file in a separate folder completely and then called it from that folder. It works. So instructions need to be updated somewhere to help I think.
