@@chaddedmapipi5789 Funny you can fill fields, add interactive elements, digitally sign the document... It's really not like adding audio to a printed image at all 🤣You even should be able to add video (which unfortunately doesn't work) Adobe are just lazy.
Thats simply a stupid argument ofc u cant add audio to a printed image, but its not comparable to a PDF. Printed images also dont include MP4 support, hyperlinks, or RGB colors, and those are things a PDF does support.
THIS IS NOT HELPING AT ALL! i can do this by simply adding a link or an embeded shape for viewer to see the gif FROM web, i want to show gif in web without directing the viewer into another page, so i think pdf can play it but im wrong, so your solution is not helping maybe 80% of your viewer
None of these work... I don't want viewers to have to click on an image i just wanted the gif to play but this isn't possible (I thought maybe this chap had found a way but no...). I found this video super misleading and of course disappointing...
Free version is BS. Just like in word, the gif is animated, until you save it as a PDF, and the image goes static again. No way to link the gif to load from a URL either. JUNK! and now these people have my contact info because it made me register. The thumbs down count display needs to come back for videos like this one. Waste of time.
Hi, as mentioned in the video, PDF does not support playing GIFs directly. We simply embed the website URL of the GIF to create a playback window within the PDF. Regarding the issue of the URL failing to load that you mentioned, you can try right-clicking the GIF file, opening it with a browser, and then copying the browser's address to add it to the PDF.
Sorry that PDF files are typically used for displaying static documents and do not support direct playback like audio or video files. PDFs are designed for viewing and sharing documents in a fixed layout format that preserves the original content and formatting. In order to interact with the content of a PDF file, such as clicking on links or playing multimedia elements, users generally need to click on the appropriate elements within the document.
pointless clickbait. Don’t waste your time with this. Bottom line: the gif can’t play in the pdf, you must link out, and the reader needs to click, and has to leave the .pdf. This is such a cumbersome user experience, I would skip the pdf altogether and present from a web page.
PDF files are mainly designed for displaying static documents, so they don’t directly support things like audio or video playback. They’re great for sharing documents in a fixed format that keeps the original layout intact.

@@PDFelement Everybody knows that. Then don’t promise to put in an animated element (GIF) just for clickbait if you yourself know that it doesn’t work. This is not only a waste of everybody’s time. It is plain rude.
This is just a scam to get you to download their bullshit software. PDF's do not support animated gifs there is no method or workaround. If you want a document format that supports gifs you'll need to use epub, which as its own drawbacks like having no default viewer on windows meaning everyone you send it to will have to install a viewer.
@@MapSpawn Thank you for your feedback! In fact, we did mention this in the video. PDF files are primarily used to display static documents and do not support direct playback of audio or video files. PDFs are designed to present documents in a fixed layout format while preserving the original content and formatting. To interact with the content in a PDF, such as playing a GIF, users typically need to interact with specific elements within the document. That's why we demonstrated in the video how to insert links in a PDF to play a GIF. If you have more questions, please feel free to ask!
I think if you really want to understand your viewers, then you need to consider that we are skipping parts of your video to get to where we want to get to faster. You may have mentioned it, but if you pay attention to the comments look how many people are saying the same thing as me. This is why contextualizations in the very beginning is crucial.@@PDFelement
@@PDFelement I would have suggested to create a presentation on google presentations and share it. That way people would see gifs. Sorry if I was too rude lol.

Basically none of these options allow for embedding the gif into the pdf without directing to another file hosted somewhere else. Waste of time.
As he mentioned PDFs don't allow gifs. Period. It's like how you can't add audio into a printed image
you can easily add audio to a printed image@@chaddedmapipi5789

@@chaddedmapipi5789 Um actually it's not because you can make interactive PDFs. So that argument doesn't really hold up.
I tried the last option (free one), and the gif moves but when you save it, it doesn't...
Liar nothing works
Tried the hipdf route. GIF animates once placed, but then in the exported pdf the gif doesn't work?
same thing for me! bs
I just tried the PDF ellement for mac and does not have an option to add a gif from a file, only web.
did you preview your downloaded pdf after downloading from Hipdf? Big dislike ...
Agreed, the GIF was out of the page and did not even work :/
I thought it was odd that the creator didn't show us the exported PDF in its final form...

Due to the limitations of the PDF format, GIFs cannot be played directly upon opening the file. Hope for your understanding.
I found the activate windows watermark quite funny
🤣🤣
Yet he's using a docked Mac in the background... you noticed?

@@PDFelement copied the browser's address, now how to add it? tried adding through add text and pasted in the box, doesn't work
the free online version is not working for me
Thank you. Can the pdf play directly on the page without clicking on it?

pdf is not able to display animation. so there is no PDF with gifs. its a scam
Doen't work. Not for free.
