How to disable the blue highlight fields around links in a PDF in Adobe Reader 10.2?

I've created a document in InDesign CS5, and when viewed on Adobe Reader 10.2 (on an iPad) all the table of contents links within the document, and all links to external websites have a blue highlight field around them. While I appreciate the fact that it makes it obvious where links are, it looks remarkably ugly to have huge blue highlights all over the document. There must be a way to turn these highlights off, right? Either from the source document within InDesign before the PDF is created, or from within Adobe Reader or Acrobat after the PDF is made? I have all the links within InDesign set to "Invisible Rectangle", and it looks great when viewed on older versions of Adobe Reader or in iBooks. Unfortunately, older versions of Adobe Reader don't support hyperlinks on tablets. So somebody using Reader 10.2, however, is now forced to view this document with ugly blue highlights. Is the only option to avoid the highlights to recommend everyone use iBooks to view the document, or is there a way in Reader 10.2 to disable these?

Might be better to post this in the Acrobat or Indesign forums.

How to disable the blue highlight boxes around links?

Thanks, but I already have all the hyperlinks set to "Invisible Rectangle", and there are still blue highlight fields around the links in Reader 10.2. If I view the PDF in other programs (iBooks, older versions of Reader) the links appear without the blue highlights. All the research I've done on this seems to point to the blue highlight fields being a "feature" of Reader 10.2, but I can't imagine that Adobe would create a feature with such a visual impact on documents without offering the option to turn that feature off? In a lot of print, online, and interactive docs both text and images are used as links (icons, buttons, etc) and having an automatic blue highlight around them really takes away from the visual impact that graphics provide. There must be an option somewhere to disable or turn these off, but I haven't been able to find it yet. Any other suggestions/ideas?

Hi I would like to know, how do I add a Hyperlink on Flash, that opens a PDF in adobe reader and not the web browser.

Hi I would like to know, how do I add a Hyperlink on Flash, that opens a PDF in adobe reader and not the web browser.

Yoh, what is FSCCommanr ? sorry man I am an absolute beginner in Flash. I tried the code:
/* Click to Go to Web Page
Clicking on the specified symbol instance loads the URL in a new browser window.
Instructions:
1. Replace http://www.adobe.com with the desired URL address.
Keep the quotation marks ("").
instance_name_here.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToWebPage);
function fl_ClickToGoToWebPage(event:MouseEvent):void {
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.adobe.com"), "_blank");
this is the same code I used before and it opens a pdf file in a web browser, and it doesn't open an AutoCAD file.

How to change outlook mail using Word to try and open PDF to Adobe Reader XI?

how to change outlook mail using Word to try and open PDF to Adobe Reader XI?

I've never found technology to make life easier. It mainly offers the promise (often unfulfilled) of making it cheaper or quicker. This didn't happen when the Girl Guides put a form in an envelope and posted it. But they probably laid off the person whose job that was with the promise of everything being easy on the internet.
PDF has, curiously, become a victim of its own success. A few years ago, you could say to people "You need Adobe Reader" and it was the only serious game in town. So they got it and it works. Now everyone is making their own PDF reader for whatever reason, fewer and fewer people can be sure of having Reader. (PDF readers come at least with every Mac, every Windows 8 system, Chrome and FireFox, which covers a LOT of ground).
This is coupled with a bizarre decision Adobe made a few years ago to have two kinds of form, one of which all the other software fails with (and, as I noted, even Adobe's own software on iPad and Android fails). This was a neat idea which was designed for big corporations. Then the really big mistake: giving everyone with Acrobat the tools to make these new kinds of form, and making it seem they were preferre or the only game in town. This is finished now (Acrobat 11 doesn't include this big boy's software) but the damage is done, oh how it is done.
Even regular forms tend to only work properly in real Adobe Reader. The fact is, if you make or distribute PDF forms you need to tell people to use Adobe Reader, and to know exactly how to help them do that. If people can't do that or their users won't be motivated to bother, then PDF forms are no longer a suitable choice. Sad but true.

How can I disable the blue highlight on textfields in Safari and Firefox, using CSS?

Hi, I'm trying to disable the default blue highlight on textfields in Safari and Firefox. I can get it to work in Safari by using the following CSS code:
input {outline-style: none;}
This doesn't work for Firefox, though.
Can anyone help me to get it to work in Firefox?
Thanks in advance!

Are you referring the the border color or the actual field color?
For field colour see the section on the input tag.
However if it is the border color, this is set by the browser o/s, and cannot be changed with any 'cross-browser' technique, it can be changed in IE and other browsers using custom behaviors (IE), or by using custom skins (others).
But the skins are only enabled by the user, and changing the chrome of the browser for form fields using JavaScript would probably affect the entire browser anyway.

Based on the value of field symbol you can differentiate.

How can I turn off the blue tips that pop up every time I start Adobe Reader?

Every time I start Adobe Reader XI, or every time I double-click a PDF file from another program, a blue bubble pops up under the "Open" portion of the toolbar that says "Easily open all your files across devices" and I cannot make it stop.
I have:
- Unchecked "Show me messages when I launch Reader" in Preferences/General/Messages form Adobe
- Checked "Don't show messages while reviewing a document" in Preferences/General/Messages form Adobe
How can I make this stop displaying?
Thanks.

This was strange. To be honest, I had never clicked the large "open" folder icon on the left of the toolbar. Once I did it showed me three options: Recent Files, My Computer, and Acrobat.com Files (cloud storage).
After actually looking at this feature, and then closing and opening Acrobat Reader again, the blue pop-up does not appear anymore. I closed and opened Acrobat Reader several times and it does not appear anymore. Apparently, it's a prompt to get you to look at the feature and prompts you until you do. I'm not sure why it does not appear on your screen. Perhaps a feature that is available only to "newer" versions of Windows (7+)?
I appreciate your help. Thank you.

Removing the purple "Highlight Fields" bar in acrobat/reader

Hi,
I'm creating an interactive document with many, many buttons that showcase hover over effects, show/hiding other buttons, etc.
Everything has been going well until page 8. I finally finished all my button creation and effects and exported it to test the new buttons out, and suddenly the highlight fields purple bar showed up. Previous to this the bar was not appearing even though every single page has a many buttons. I looked through every single button to check if I had accidentally created a form object, but they are all set to "button"s. I've done nothing differently on this new page. Any ideas why this would be happening?
Also I tried deleting the new page and just adding a blank new page, and it was still happening... I'm really not sure why? I've tried the javascript code to disable it automatically but I don't think I've been doing it correctly because it doesn't seem to be working.
Can anyone give me clear step by step instructions on how to disable the bar with javascript? Or perhaps indicate why the bar is suddenly popping up?
I'm on Adobe Acrobat X Pro.
Cheers,
Caroline

This will happen when there are more than 100 buttons. You can prevent it from happening by setting security restrictions so that form filling is not allowed. The buttons will still work and the purple bar won't get displayed.

How to disable the status icon in Skype 4 for Andr...

Dear Skypers,
How to disable the status icon in Skype 4 for Android phones?
The guide on this following support page not working anymore: https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA12359/how-do-i-enable-or-disable-the-status-icon-in-skype-4-for-a...
Older version has the option to disable Skype Status and get rid of the Skype icon on Android status bar. But latest 4.4.0.31835 could not disable Skype Status in notifications settings. :/
Device: Google Nexus 4
Android: 4.3 JWR66Y
Skype: 4.4.0.31835
Please bring back the option to disable the Skype icon on Android status bar. This is the main reason I uninstall Skype. :/
Kudos to the team, the apps is really smooth and fluid to use. Would be nice if you guys are following the Android Design Principles and using Google Cloud Messaging for push notification to improve User Experience and battery life.
Kind regards,

how to get rid of skype icon on android status bar.png ‏46 KB

Long click on this notification a sub menu having field "App info" would appear goto App Info. You can goto there by "Manage Apps">"Skype" also.
Uncheck Option "Show Notifications" A dialog will open. Don't worry about notifications for now just click OK. Now the notification icon skype has also been removed.
Now simply check "Show notification again". After doing this you would get notifications but skype icon would not be shown in the status bar anymore.
Issue: this is just a trick you need to repeat this every time sign out and sign in again. Mostly you don't do that so no need to worry.

How to Disable the Lead selection Action on aTable n How to Refreh a Page

HI....
1)How to Disable the Lead selection Action on aTable n How to Refreh a Page r web dynpro application.
In my case i have a table n user enters data on multiple rows in table , n i have some input fields outside of table for those Inputs fields am settiing the data at the screen initilization(in Init() moethod by hard code).the problem is whenever the is clicking in th 2nd row of a table the Lead Selection is triggerig and the data in the Input Fields outside the table is not displayinig.
So by removing the lead Selection Action of a table i thought i can reslove this,
2) How to refresha page(like we click F5 on key board),is it can be done thru code in web dynpro application
Regards
Rajesh

Hi,
You did not explained what is your functionality or coding in leadselection. Is that action on leadselection is necessary for you?.
1)If you just want to remove the action then go to table properties and remove the action for leadselection.
2)If you still want to continue with your leadselect action, then what you can do is.. write the code in leadselection action to again set the input fields which are out from table. That is what you did in your init method.
Page Refreshing
3) What do you mean by page refreshing? is that refreshing your table only or both the table and input fields.
What I understood is you are allowing the user to enter values in table and soon after pressing a button the values should be saved and the data in input fields shld be deleted. For this if you only invalidate the node then the user entered data will be lost.
So what you do is after getting the input data from the user add it to a ArrayList and then invalidate the node which clears the data in input field. Finally bind the Arraylist to your node. see the following code. This is a concept make changes according to your requirement
ArrayList list1=new ArrayList();
wdContext.nodeAbc().bind(list1);
IPrivateExcelviw.IAbcElement ele = wdContext.createAbcElement();
ele.setNo(wdContext.currentAbcElement().getNo());
ele.setName(wdContext.currentAbcElement().getName());
ele.setMarks(wdContext.currentAbcElement().getMarks());
list1.add(ele);
wdContext.nodeAbc().invalidate();
wdContext.nodeAbc().bind(list1);
Revert me if you have any doubts

How do I turn off highlighted fields as a setting within a specific document?

I need to turn off highlighted fields on a specific document, regardless of the users' 'highlight fields' setting. The fields are being filled out with information obtained from an input page on my website (not the pdf itself). After a user hits submit, this pdf pops up, but the fields are: a) highlighted b) changeable. Bonus points if you can tell me how to make the fields so they cannot be changed. Using the 'security' feature and locking with a password does not work if I choose to make the fields uneditable because I don't believe the site can enter the info onto the pdf. Thanks very much.

Thanks. Read-only might work. Just wondering if changing the fields over to Read-only would preclude my website from being allowed to enter the information which the user has inputted on the website?
