Mixed Content in PDF Files

Although PDF files can contain a mix of PostScript-based art, PostScript text, and
bitmapped graphics, each format has different scaling properties. PostScript-based art
and text scale smoothly, but bitmapped graphics embedded in a PDF file are subject to
the same scaling issues as other bitmapped graphics formats. As a result, bitmapped
graphics can soften if scaled larger than their original size.

Note: Form objects, buttons, and JavaScript objects that are present in an imported PDF
file do not appear in Motion.
