Page transitions



Page transitions display a decorative effect such as a dissolve or wipe when you’re turning pages in a document that is exported to SWF or PDF format. You can apply multiple transitions to individual pages, or you can apply a single transition to all the pages. When you open the Page Transitions panel (Window > Interactive > Page Transitions), clicking a thumbnail lets you preview the transition type.

For more information on page transitions, see web Help.
