I am thinking about converting a PDF document into a long scrolling HTML doc

  • 0

I am thinking about converting a PDF document into a long scrolling HTML doc (my reason is that there is video in the document and we want to turn the video into streaming rather than require anyone viewing the presentation to download 200+mb before being able to view anything). I am wondering if there is a maximum pixel width or height to HTML documents, or if browsers start to have difficulty with the DOM at certain lengths. If I convert the whole presentation to HTML it would be about 41,000 px. Does that seem reasonable? Are there limits to the pixel height or width of documents? Or best practices considerations I should keep in mind?

    As far as I’m aware, browsers can render documents of literally any size. I had a world map page that was 40,000 x 20,000 pixels, and it ran perfectly fine, even with some fairly busy JavaScript.
