RE: Tooltip text for hotspot doesn't show in PDF (FM 11, Windows 7)
Hi Jeff, You wrote: Doesn't Shlomo's Timesavers plugin/program help in this situation? Thanks for mentioning this, Jeff! Indeed, with the FrameMaker-to-Acrobat TimeSavers + Form Assistant add-on it is possible to define tooltips for text/images/web links through custom markers in the source FM file (present in the PDF automatically upon distilling; applicable to all FM/Acrobat versions). There are several sample PDFs in the Showcase section at microtype.com. One that I added recently is http://www.microtype.com/showcase/MultimediaAsst/SomosElMundo.pdf (172K).

It is supported by Hotspots in HTML. And, furthermore, the Tooltip capability does not apply to the HTML output as produced from standalone FrameMaker either (but we can assume that it applies to HTML output from TCS). So, with standalone FrameMaker saving as PDF , one could equally place message URL or gotolink hypertext markers in text frames drawn over graphic objects in the anchored frame (FrameMaker 5 or later).

RE: Tooltip text for hotspot doesn't show in PDF (FM 11, Windows 7)
I did a test with this by creating a hotspot in FrameMaker and saving the document to PDF. The hotspot is converted to an Acrobat Link object. As far as I can see, Acrobat Link objects don't have a tooltip property. You can see this by creating a Link by hand with the Link tool. I don't see any place in the Link properties dialog box where you could specify a tooltip. So I am not sure how this could work going from Frame to PDF.
