Is it posslible to use remotely loaded image in PDF?
Hello all, I'm just wondering if it is possible to create PDF document which contains image (link to image) which is downloaded from the Internet and displayed at the moment when PDF is opened? Maybe it is not possible because some security reasons. I've spent hours googling it, but without satisfying answer (may be I'm just lame). Thanks a lot for answer. Rosta

No. You can use External Objects (PDF Ref 8.8), but that can only point to local files, not URLs. And you would need a viewer that handled External Objects. Or you could use the Open Prepress Interface (PDF Ref 14.11.7), but that can only point to local files, not URLs. And you would need a viewer that handled OPI. Maybe with embedded flash. :-{ Best Martin
