Interactive page links not working in Google viewer

Hello,
I created a PDF from InDesign and wanted to embed jumps from page to page.
Specifically, they're arrows with text that the viewer can click on to jump from
page to page.
I tested them in Acrobat Reader and they work. I test emailed myself the PDF
to my gmail account. When I clicked on the PDF to View it, it opened Google's
PDF viewer.
All well and good except that those page jumps don't work.
I have 2 other hyperlinks in the PDF. One is a link to a Google map (Works fine).
The other is a link to email me.
Again, testing the PDF in Acrobat the email link works. I typed in "mailto:blahblah" in
the URL field.
But in Google docs, that link isn't working.
My fear is that many people will in fact use the Google docs to view the PDF. Is there a way
to fix this? Am I better off doing this interactivity in Acrobat Pro instead of InD?
Thanks.
Jane

Am I better off doing this interactivity in Acrobat Pro instead of InD?
Why would you? It works in Acrobat, doesn't it?
It really, really, really sounds like the problem lies with Google's PDF viewer.
My concern is that I could imagine a lot of recipients clicking View in gmail rather than downloading the PDF and then viewing.
There are similar issues with Preview on the Mac. The standard advice, therefore, is to recommend Acrobat to view your document.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Are you referring to the links in the navbar? Try using the File->Publish All to MobileMe menu option. Also make sure there are no items that are overlapping the navbar area.

  • Some page links not working when I publish iweb site to desktop folder?

    I just created a photo website using iweb. All the links to pages, etc. work fine in the programme but when I go to publish it to folder to check it on a web page some of the page links don't work?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    - Ricky

    Even though you have deactivated the iWeb navigation menu, the navigation layer still exists and is blocking your custom links. Open the Inspector Page tab and try changing the value for Header Height to zero. See if this does anything for you. If not, then try increasing the Header Height value incrementally. This pushes the navigation layer down your page and maybe out of the way of your custom links.
    Of course, there is also the question of whether you custom links are placed on the page as a header element or as a regular page element. You can put elements into the header or footer layers by holding down the Apple key while dragging the elements until you see the header/footer outline highlight in blue.
    If your custom links are header elements, then increasing the header height to push the navigation layer down will probably help. If your custom links are page elements, then decreasing the header height to zero might be more likely to help.

  • Navto links not working in Content Viewer

    When I view my folio in Content Viewer, the buttons I created to navigate to other articles within the folio don't work. I selected the hyperlink option and typed navto://articlename in the field, so I'm not sure what the problem could be. Has anyone else had this issue using CS5?

    I have recreated the button many times... with a solid fill, without a fill, on a new layer on top of everything else... It is not just that article. The Tech Data navto below it does the exact same thing.
    Also, inside rt8030f, I have navto links back to navto://lbcranelit#2, indicating to go back to page 3 in the main document. Those links don't work either.
    I deleted rt8030f and rt8030t from the folio builder, copied the files into the same folder as the main document, and re-added them to foliobuilder.
    I know this is going to be something stupid that I'm doing, but I cannot figure it out. I've spent hours trying to debut this thing.

  • Access Connections "Override home page" does not work with Google Chrome

    I have different homepages set up for home and work locations within Access Connections.  These work fine with Windows Internet Explorer 9 and with Mozilla Firefox 16.  However, with Google Chrome 23 (my preferred browser), Access Connections does not override the home page.  Since that section in Access Connections is entitled "Customize Internet Explorer, Firefox Browser or Google Chrome", it ought to work...
    I am using a T520 with Windows 7 Professional 64 bit.

    If Chrome does't display your webpages, then contact Google about it.
    And for solutions, why not click a link at the right.

  • Web Services on Server 4 - Home page links not working

    We have recently upgraded our server to Server 4.
    We use the "Home Page" of the default web server as a starting point for access to web enabled services on the server - so Wiki, web version of Calendar, User Password setting etc.
    Back in Server 2 this page came preconfigured with a grid of icons you could click on to get to these services. 
    I'm not sure what you get in Server 3 or Server 4, but our start page has remained the same ever since.  However since the upgrade, we've noticed the behaviour of the buttons on the screen has changed - so now when you click on (say) the Wiki button, all that happens is the page reloads - you no longer go to the Wiki.
    If you click on the drop-down menu under the button in top left of the window and choose the same option from there, the wiki (or whatever) opens OK.
    I'd like to fix the function of the buttons on the home page - but the option to edit this page is severely constrained by the Wiki system itself: Apple use some kind of Javascript call linked to the default buttons to open the service, but you can't edit this via the wiki editor.  As the page itself is a database entry in the database driving the Wiki, you can't go and edit the source HTML for the page either.
    Does anyone know how to fix this?  Or maybe how to force the Wiki system to revert to the Server4 equivalent of the 'default' home page?  I'm wondering if somewhere between Server 2 and Server 4 the javascript libraries loaded by Wiki have changed and so the buttons no longer function due to missing libraries or something.
    Anyhow - any help with this would be most welcome.  Thanks in advance!

    Hi Jeff. You've got a GoToLink action on the home page that's pointing to a page with this name:
    Elaine's Blog Page.html
    The spaces aren't really valid (or at least ideal) for a file name, but what's really causing the problems is the apostrophe. It's causing a JavaScript error on the page, which prevents any of the actions from working. To fix it, you'd need to either remove the apostrophe from the page's name (and make sure to re-link it in the Actions palette), or escape the apostrophe with a backslash in the Actions palette like:
    Elaine\'s Blog Page.html

  • The pirate bay page and links not working on firefox

    First of all, the website in question(thepiratebay.se) works normal on IE with no issue.
    On Firefox however, attempts to click on 'ANYTHING' on this sites' webpage results in no effect. This includes the text/search box where the text indicator does not show up or any of the link on the page will not work. When mousing over the hyperlinks or objects on the page, the cursor does not change to a 'finger' and a small box area around the pointer jitters/pull the texts or graphics within it like a 0x magnifying glass that ran over the texts. Right-clicking anywhere on the page(text, blank or graphics) yield a flash applet menu with the first line(greyed out) indicating 'movie not loaded' and the second line 'About adobe flash player v11.4.402.256...'. These symptoms extends to all sub-pages of the site after skipping to them using Google search. This issue ONLY affects 'thepiratebay.se' thus far to my knowledge.
    I'm using Firefox v15.0 and recently updated the Flash plugin to the latest version before Firefox request and updated to 15.0.
    I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Shockwave Flash browser plugin as well as clearing all cache/history/form/etc.. to no avail...

    I have exactly the same thing happening here, only in Firefox. Like you say it does work fine in other browsers but if you start a private browsing window in FF it works fine..very strange!

  • Assistance pls: ~50% links not working on page, iWeb 3.0.4

    I built a new page on a longstanding iWeb site last night, uploaded it (to my own domain hosted at Earthlink) and discovered that about 50% of the links on the page are not working, though all the links are formatted identically.
    Here's the page:
    http://www.MarynMcKenna.com/magazines.html
    Here's how this page is built:
         - Each visible box is a shape
         - Within each shape is a text box with outline set to None
         - Each link was individually cut-pasted into Inspector (I have double-checked that none of them pasted 2x.)
         - I have checked that, in Inspector > Hyperlink, the settings for each link are:
              - Enable as a Hyperlink
              - Link to an External Page
              - Open link in new window
    Also, I have checked (Command-Shift-L/Command-A) that the boxes are in the Body of the page, not in the Header, Footer etc.
    When I am in iWeb, all of the links work fine.
    When I upload the page and check it at Earthlink, however, the links in the larger boxes (Scientific American, Self, Annals) don't work.
    I cannot see any reason why this would be going on. Any thoughts would be welcome.

    Use the Inspector/Text/Text pane to adjust the inset margin to assure a uniform margin around the text in the text box.  This screenshot is without any margin:
    And this is with a margin added:

    Try downloading Reflow Preview 8 that was released yesterday and see if that fixes it. If not can you post the name of the page you are trying to link too and I'll see if I can reproduce it.

  • Cascading Dynamic Parameters Do Not Work In Crystal Viewer 2008?

    I have generated a report with Crystal Reports 2008 that uses a dynamic cascading parameter. I work in waste management and the report I create in Crystal is used as a "template" with the tonnages collected from all of our customers. Our less technically minded employees can then open this report with Crystal Reports Viewer 2008, use the drop down menus to select only the customer they need a report for and then export this to PDF for delivery.
    The report as designed works perfectly in Crystal Reports, but the parameter does not work in Crystal Viewer.
    Some of our customers have more than one physical location that we service. The cascading dynamic parameter in my report allows you to select the customer name, and then it only shows the locations linked to that customer, so the end user can select only the relevant location(s) for the report. The cascading parameter is dynamic and allows multiple selections, and is linked to a Saved Data formula. The report is saved with the data.
    When the report is opened in Viewer, one of two things happens. If the report is saved in Crystal Reports and a specific customer/location is selected, then ONLY those selected customer/locations are available in the Viewer. If ALL the customers/locations are selected in Crystal Reports and saved, then in the Viewer they are all available, but selecting one customer does NOT narrow down the locations (i.e. it does not "cascade") and instead ALL of the locations are available even if they do not apply to the customer.
    If I use a single dynamic parameter and select ALL of the customers (for example), then when this is opened in Crystal Viewer all of the customers are available from the parameters drop down and the report works fine. As soon as this is tried with a cascading parameter however, Crystal Viewer falls down.
    Does anyone know of a workaround to this or if there is something I am doing wrong?

    I am using the free Crystal Report 2008 Viewer along with designing reports with Crytal Reports ver 12.3. With a test file from SAP called "Interactive Parameters", the parameter feature works to refresh the report. The parameters that are supplied in the sample report work with Viewer. They show up under the parameter list in the parameter side panel in Viewer and are available to make record selections. When I add a parameter to the sample report in Crystal 2008 and then view the report in Viewer, my parameters are unavalable for record selection while the original parameters remain available. Futher, my parameters are displayed under a section called "Current Data Set" in the Parameter side panel, while the selectable parameters are displayed under the "Parameter" section in the parameter side panel. There must be a setting that is treating the parameters I create differently form the parameters created in the original sample report. Any help would be appreciated.
