  • Select Sound Tool by navigating to Tools>Advanced Editing> Sound Tool. Specify an area in the PDF that will play the music/audio when clicking on.
  • In the Content Settings section, click a radio button to choose the music you need to add in the PDF. Select the music you need by browsing your local folder.
  • Customize the active area. Use No Poster is the default setting which means you're going to play the music by clicking the active area, which has a border. Create Poster From File means you can customize the active area with an image, which of course, needs extra work in adjusting the image.
  • When everything is ready, click OK to finish the whole process of adding the sound to the PDF.

However, according to the blog of Adobe, Acrobat XI will be end of support on October 15, 2017, which means there will be no more security updates, product updates, and no more customer support. You can though keep using the program then, but you'll have to face the fact that it'll cost more money and time if something goes wrong with the program. More importantly, your file and data might be insecure due to lack of protection. In this case, you can check here to find out the best alternatives to Adobe Acrobat.

Step 1: Explain PDF Parts by Adding Sticky Note
