1. Forward
Forthepastseveralyears(thisyearis2016),I’vebeenwritingabooktitled,
AcroTEXeDucationSystemTools: LATEXforinteractivePDFdocuments.
The book [6] covers AeB, which includes the eforms package, and AeB Pro in great
detail and includes many examples to illustrate concepts and techniques. Numerous
newexamplesareavailableontheCD-ROMthataccompaniesthebook.
During the time of the writing, each of the packages covered was examined, bugs
were fixed, and many new and major features were created. Any new features devel-
opedinthecourseofwritingthebookaredocumentedinthebook;however,theyare
not included in this documentation. You can either buy the yet-to-be-submitted book
sometime in the future, or discover the features by studying the DTX documentation
of the program files. Sorry, it took me three years to write the book, I don’t want to
spendanotheryearonthisdocumentation. :-{)

2. Overview
AeB Pro, package file base name aeb_pro (ctan.org/pkg/aeb-pro), is an assortment of
features(seeSection2.2below)implementedthroughacombinationofpdfmarkoper-
ators[4],whicharenativetoaPostscriptfile,andJavaScripttechniques,someofwhich
requireAcrobat Professional. ThesefeaturesweremeanttobeusedwithAeB(AcroTEX
eDucation Bundle); in particular, the insdljs and eforms packages are essential to
AeBPro. Tohaveaccesstoallthefeaturesof AeBPro,thedocumentauthormusthave

Despite the declaration in the Forward to the contrary, this manual will be up-
datedforVersion2.1of AeBProtoreflectthecreationofasignificantnewfeature,the
useacrobat option. For a document author who prefers pdflatex (including lualatex)
non-Distiller
or xelatex, this option opens the features of AeB Pro provided the document author

has the full Acrobat application and has set it up as the primary PDF viewer on his/
her computer system. Continue reading about the useacrobat option on page 9. The

2.1.Dedication

my retirement. The AeB Pro package includes several techniques that I’ve developed
overtheyearsformypersonaluse,andafewnewones. ThetechniquesrequireAcrobat

Overview 5
As a now former educator, I’ve always preferred the use of Acrobat/Distiller over
pdftex/AdobeReader. IrecognizethedebtIowetotheY&YTEXSystem,1andtoAcrobat
and Distiller.2 These systems have inspired me and have made it easy to develop new
ideas. IbelievethatifIhadnotusedtheWindows/Acrobatplatform,Iwouldnothave
developedallthepackagesandsystemsthatIdid.3
I dedicate AeB Pro to Y&Y (developer Berthold K. P. Horn) and to Adobe Systems,
developer of Acrobat. Since I entered the Internet education business, I’ve gotten to
knowBertholdquitewellthroughouremailcorrespondence,andmanyofthesoftware
engineersoftheAcrobatsoftwareengineeringteam.4 Thankyouallforyourwonderful
work.
2.2.Features

To open this package up to a wider population of users, the requirements for this
packagehavechanged;thedocumentauthorisnolongerrequiredtoowntheAcrobat
application(stronglyrecommended)andisnolongerrequiredtousethedvips/Distiller
workflow, as previous versions have required. This package classifies you, as the doc-
umentauthor,intooneofthreegroups:
1. YouownAcrobatandusethedvips/Distillerworkflow. Thisistheidealworkflow
forthispackagebecauseallfeaturesofthispackageareavailable.
2. YouownAcrobatbutprefertouseanon-Distillerworkflow;thatis,youpreferto
usetheapplicationspdflatex,lualatex,orxelatex. Inthiscase,almostallfeatures
are available through the useacrobat option, refer to the initial description of
thisoptiononpage9.
3. You do not own Acrobat, your PDF creator must be pdflatex, lualatex, or xela-
tex. To avoid compile errors, you must use the nopro option, read the initial
descriptionofthisoptiononpage9.
IfyoudoownAcrobat,itmustbeversion7orlater;torepeat,
Acrobat 7.0 Professionalorlaterisrequired
If you do not own Acrobat and you want to access the extensive features of AeB Pro
beyond what the nopro option provides, you need to buy the application.8 Once the
document is built, however, Adobe Reader 7.0 (or later) is sufficient to view the doc-
ument. This is a reasonable restriction since some JavaScript techniques used by this
packagerequireAcrobatPro.
AeB Prorequirestheinsdljsand eformspackages,bothofwhichareincludedwith
the AcroTEX eDucation Bundle (AeB) distribution. The use of the web package is op-
tional, though highly recommended. These are all meant to fit together as a compre-
hensiveandunifiedfamilyofpackages,afterall.

Overview 8
The graphing screen is a rich media annotation that uses a specially developed
SWF file, called the AcroFLeX Graphing widget. The package takes advantage of
rich media annotations, a version 9 feature of Acrobat; it therefore requires Ac-
robat Pro and Distiller version 9 or later. The user needs to use Adobe Reader
(version9.0orlater)inordertoobtainthegraphingfunctionality.
aeb_mlink (ctan.org/pkg/aeb-mlink) creates hypertext links in documents for text ex-
tending over multiple lines. The package requires that the PDF be created by Ac-
robat Distiller, version 7.0 or later to create multi-line links, and requires Adobe
Reader7.0orlaterforthelinkstoworkcorrectly.
annot_pro (ctan.org/pkg/annot-pro) is used to create text, stamp, and file attachment
annotationsusing AcrobatDistillerthatcanthenbeviewedinAdobeReader.

2.7.Installation
AeB Pro requires the installation of AeB (ctan.org/pkg/acrotex). Be sure to install AeB
and to read the installation instructions. In this section, we outline the method of
installing AeBPro.
•Automaticinstallation
Some TEX systems, most notably MiKTEX and TEX Live, have a Package Manager to
automaticallydownloadandinstallLATEXpackages. IfyouhaveaPackageManagerand
not installed AeB Pro do so now. After AeB Pro is installed, it is not quite ready to be
used. Locate where the Package Manager installed the documentation portion of the
installation,forMiKTEX,thismightbeat
C:\Program Files (x86)\MiKTeX 2.9\doc\latex\aeb-pro
(This path assumes the use of MiKTEX 2.9.) The folder contains documentation and
examplefiles.
•Manualinstallation
ManualinstallationmaybenecessaryforsomeTEXsystems,orforthecasewhereyou
have downloaded the ZIP package files from CTAN or from the home website of AeB
Proathttp://www.math.uakron.edu/~dpstory/aeb_pro.html.
TheAeBProdistributioncomesintwoZIPfiles: aebpro_pack.zipandaebpro.zip.
The first contains the program files and documentation,9 the latter contains the full
distribution,includingprogramfiles,documentation,andexamplefiles. Ifyoualready
have AeB Pro, it suffices to update your installation using aebpro_pack.zip. If you
don’thaveAeBProalreadyinstalled,theinstallthecontentsof aebpro.zip.
ToinstallAeBPro,usethefollowingsteps:
1. Place aebpro.zip (or possibly aebpro_pack.zip) on your latex search file and
unzip. (Ifyoualreadyhaveanaeb_profolder,unziponelevelabovetheaeb_pro
folder.) Unzippingcreatesafoldernamedaeb_pro.
InstallingAeBProwithMiKTEX2.8orlater. MiKTEX2.8orlaterismoreparticular
aboutwhereyouinstallpackagesbyhand. Ifyouareinstalling AeB Probyhand,
MiKTEX 2.8/2.9 requires that you install the distribution in a local root TDS tree.
