stores. This document contains information about each of the stores in the<br />

manager’s region, as shown in the image below.<br />

The information includes the store’s address, phone number, the store<br />

manager’s email address, its inventory figures, <strong>and</strong> so on. When regional<br />

managers view this document on their iPhones, they can:<br />

• View a map of the store’s location <strong>and</strong> get directions from their current<br />

location<br />

• Email the store manager<br />

• Call the store<br />

To create a link with a larger area that is easier to select, you can define a link<br />

that includes both the text <strong>and</strong> the area around it, or create an image button<br />

that users can select. To do this, you can:<br />

• Create an image to use as the button <strong>and</strong> add a link to it.<br />

• Insert a transparent image into the document, then enlarge <strong>and</strong>/or<br />

position it to cover the desired link area. Link the transparent image to<br />

the target. The user can then tap any area covered by the image to open<br />

the link. A sample transparent image is located by default in C:\<br />
