MRH Issue 3 - EMBEDDED Edition - Release notes

IT'S NOW THE EMBEDDED EDITION NOT PREMIUM

The MRH Staff felt the name PREMIUM implied the LITE Edition had content that was left out, so we opted to go with more neutral names of STANDARD for what was the LITE Edition, and EMBEDDED for what was the PREMIUM Edition.

Both editions have the same content, the EMBEDDED Edition has the rich media embedded in the PDF so you don't need an internet connection to read the magazine and enjoy the rich media. But of course, if you want to click a link and bring up a web page, it goes without saying you need to be connected to the internet!
 

PESKY ADOBE READER QUESTIONS

When you first open up the EMBEDDED Edition in Adobe Reader 9, it will ask if you want to go to full screen - we recommend you say yes, and that you check the "remember my choice for this document" checkbox. The EMBEDDED Edition looks especially nice when viewed in full screen mode.

The cover will also ask if you want to play the rich media included - again say yes, and also say "remember my choice for this document".

Once you're past these two questions when you first open up the EMBEDDED Edition, you're good to go until you click on a link - at which point Adobe Reader will ask if you want to allow going to the internet on this link - again say yes and also check the "remember my choice" checkbox.
 

CLOSING THE MAGAZINE WHEN DONE READING

To close the MRH EMBEDDED Edition when viewing it full screen, click the Index link on the bottom and then click the Exit Document button at the top of the dashboard.

You can also click the Toggle Full Screen button on the dashboard to get the menus to come back and then do whatever you want from there.

Finally, pressing the Esc key exits full screen mode and brings back the menus.

STILL IMAGES IN THE EMBEDDED EDITION

Because the still images in the EMBEDDED Edition are at twice the resolution of the STANDARD Edition, you can zoom in up to 200% and most images will not pixelate - but will remain intact and show more detail.

Try magnifying photos with a printed magazine! If you magnify a printed magazine photo by 200%, you start to get a bunch of dots, with little extra detail visible ...
 

EMBEDDED EDITION ON THE MAC?

If you're willing to download and install Adobe Reader "bloatware" on your Mac, and you're willing to fight with making sure Adobe Reader doesn't replace the generally preferred PDF Preview feature on the Mac, then our Issue 3 EMBEDDED Edition actually works well a Mac with Adobe Reader 9.1. But if you prefer to use Preview on your Mac to view PDFs, then stick with the STANDARD Edition.
