  Updating my portfolio, trying something hopefully will be neato…
  
  Most of my work samples are multipage documents, and I’ve always been underwhelmed by how I’ve portrayed them in my portfolio (a PDF).
  
  What I’d like to do is something like this, minus the hands:

  Almost like page spread thumbnails, but instead of seeing all the pages like you would in the sidebar, I just want to view one spread at a time.
  
  I feel like this is doable in a PDF, but I’m blanking on how to approach it.
  
  bonus points: The file is in Indesign (9); I would love to know how to set this up on the InDesign side, and not the Acrobat side. I’d hate to have to redo whatever process every time I make a new PDF.

  That would be very hard to do in a PDF file, I think. Maybe as a placed SWF/Flash file, but then it would not work on mobile devices or computers that don’t have Flash installed. Maybe use Publish Online instead?
