Description:
This package provides an interface to create portable, JavaScript driven PDF
- animations from sets of graphics files or from inline graphics, such as
- latex-picture, PSTricks or pgf/TikZ generated pictures, or just from typeset
- text. It supports the usual PDF making workflows, i. e. pdfLaTeX and LaTeX
- -> dvips -> ps2pdf (Ghostscript) / Distiller. The resulting PDF can be
- viewed in current Adobe Readers on all supported platforms.

+ It supports the usual PDF making workflows, i. e. pdfLaTeX and LaTeX ->
+ dvips -> ps2pdf (Ghostscript) / Distiller.
+
+ The resulting PDF can be viewed in current Adobe Readers, version 7, on all
+ supported platforms. Unfortunately, beginning with Reader 8, animations
+ cease to work because of user-right restrictions that have been imposed on
+ several important JavaScript methods.
+
+ Package `animate' is based on the work by Jan Holecek and Petr Sojka:
+ http://www.fi.muni.cz/~xholecek/tex/pdfanim.xhtml
