 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
