Acrobat ProX messing with converted hyperlinks

With v7 & 8 we were able to 'get around' Acrobat's refusal to allow links to Windows Explorer folders (ie not files) by converting Word or other hyperlinks, and then using the created link rectangles as required.
My shiny new (and generally annoyingly in need of many more mouse clicks to do anything) v 10 changes the path in the links when I copy/paste them or insert the pdf into another pdf so they no longer find the target folder.
Good job I have Autobookmark to correct them.

I would appreciate any guidance on converting Excel 2007 internal hyperlinks in Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro (Ver 9.1.0).
In summary, i have created a Excel Table of Contents using Excel hyperlinks and when I convert these using the ribbon, the text converts but the hyperlinks are not included - I have tried this with external hyperlinks and this works fine.
I have read arcticle http://forums.adobe.com/thread/448213 which looked hopeful, but it refers to XP and a security update KB969682 - I am running Windows 7 and don't have that KB installed :-(
Really appreciate help as I am running out of ideas.
Thanks - DMB

  • Cannot convert webpages to pdf using Acrobat X Pro with IE9 and Windows 7, worked fine until a few m

    Cannot convert webpages to pdf using Acrobat X Pro with IE9 and Windows 7, worked fine until a few months and updates ago

    I tried your suggestion, not knowing that the direct pdf printer would also "save as" PDF, but when I try your suggestion and use the Adobe PDF printer that is a direct creation of the PDF from the browser (IE9), instead of the "black out" areas I get when I use the "Convert to" button, I get missing blocks of the resulting PDF, and only get the first 1/4 to 1/3 of the webpage.
    Just to clarify, when I said I print the webpage and then scan, that is a work around I have to do if I need a scanned version of the way a webpage appears on a particular date and time, instead of the one step process I used to be able to do when Adobe Acrobat would actually convert the webpage to a pdf without blackout areas or, if I try your suggestion, blank spots with a partial webpage. But the idea was one I had not thought of and I appreciated the thought.
    Yes, Acrobat was updated, and is updated, and was working fine until a few months ago, Win 7 and Office 32 bit versions, Office 2010

  • Convert Excel documents with internal hyperlinks.

    Can you convert a multiple worksheet excel file with internal hyperlinks to a pdf file? bookmarks are alright too as long as its accessible by one file

  • Converting 3g to just an ipod and not messing with my 4.

    I bought a new iphone 4 and want to convert my old 3g into an ipod for the kids. How do I do this so when I sync the old 3g phone, it doesn't mess with my new phone?

    Leave the deactivated sim card in the 3G, you'll need that if you every have to restore the phone or upgrade software. All iPhones require a sim card be installed in the phone to upgrade or restore software. The sim need not be activated, but it must be present. As for syncing, iTunes will keep everything straight, by device. You can have the same content or different content on each device. iTunes will keep it all straight, including separate backups. Fact is, you can sync as many devices as you want to the same iTunes account.

  • Forms Central with Adobe Acrobat ProX

    I signed up for Adobe Acrobat ProX because I read that it included a subscription to Forms Central. Now Form Central is asking me for a paid subscription. Am I missing something?

    The next version of Acrobat (XI) has a FormsCentral desktop application bundled with it- We just announced it on Monday and it hasn't shipped yet. You can use the FC desktop app (without paying for the online service) to create an unlimited number of PDF forms (without a submit button). You can move those forms online and take advantage of the FormsCentral online features. When  you do this you can use the free account (1 online form with 50 responses) or pay for a more functional account.

  • Adobe media encoder in acrobat proXI

    I learned from tutorial video file of adobe that adobe media encoder is automatically installed when installing acrobat proXI.
    So I tried to find out this software in my computer. but failed.
    Is adobe media encoder included in acrobat pro XI as package ?
    If yes, could you explain how to install adobe media encoder from installing CD ?
    If not included, could I download from adobe home page at free ?
    If yes, which version could I download for window 8.1 ?
    Thanks

    Pull the Matrox out. Try with a standard project and likely your problems are solved.
    Matrox cards are best used in a fashion they were designed for, as a doorstopper.

    Willy, the procdedure you describe works perfectly for AppleTV G1. In fact, I frequently play DTS music discs ripped to my iTunes library as Apple Lossless (ALAC) and synched to the ATV. What happens is that, as far as iTunes and the ATV are concerned, a conventional stereo 16/44 audio file is being played; however my reciever detects the DTS data stream, and instead of outputting static, it decodes the 5.1 channels correctly. This process parallels the way DTS discs were designed to be played back: a conventional CD player is connceted, via digital out, to a DTS-aware reciever/pre-amp and the two channels of static are recognized as 6 channels of DTS-encoded audio.
    However this process will only work if the player (CD, ATV, PC, etc.) sends a "bit-perfect" 16 bit/44.1 khz data stream to the decoding device. In the case of ATV G2 and G3, as has been discussed elsewhere, the unit resmaples all audio - including 16/44 PCM (Redbook CD)  - to 16/48. While this is not a big deal for conventional audio CDs, MP3s, and AAC files, it mangles the fragile DTS datastream and renders it undecodable. The resulting static that you hear is just like the static you would hear if you played a DTS CD on a non-DTS capable system.
    Sadly, I'm not aware of any easy way around this. You could use a program like Foobar (and the DTS plugin) to convert your DTS CDs to 6-ch .wav or .flac file. From there you could transcode the file to AC-3 and then mux it into a video container that ATV supports. You may need add a dummy video track, for iTunes/AppleTV to be ok with the file, though I'm not sure. This may be a lot of work.
    Sorry for the bad news. I wish that the iTunes/ATV ecosystem had better multi-channel audio support.

  • Adobe Acrobat 8 will not convert a pdf to a jpeg

    Adobe Acrobat 8 will not convert a pdf to a jpeg. It just gives an error message and shuts down every time I to save it as jpeg. Any advice why this conversion will not work?  I use a PC and run Windows 7.

  • Adobe Acrobat X incompatible with Office 2010 x64! Along with other Problems I found!

    I AM VERY ANGRY AS WELL AS LOSING IT BIG TIME!!! MADDNESS!!!!
    Can someone FROM ADOBE FIX THESE PROBLEMS? CAN AN UPDATE OR FIX SOLVE OUR SITUATION WITH ACROBAT X?
    First off, I cannot see the plugin appear in the Office ribbon, in ANY office program. I tried everything Adobe told me to do. From trying to locate the adding through the list of disabled add-ins (which is not displayed), or the command prompts option which did not work either.
    Second of all, I have this message of "Missing PDFMaker files", then after reinstalling Adobe 10 times, as well as reinstalling office 2010 x64 Bit 26 times, reformatting Windows "7" Ultimate x64 Bit 5 times, I still had no results.
    Third, yet not least, the other problem is that the option to create blank PDFs no longer exists. In addition, I am unable to edit existing PDFs, even if they do not have security on them. I want a word processing feature added to Acrobat!
    Can someone fix ANY of these problems, or may Adobe create an update to FIX ALL of these problems, OR AM I GOING TO DROP ACROBAT IN FAVOUR OF ANOTHER COMPANY?
    I NEED HELP SOON!!!! NO TIME TO DO THIS ON MY OWN!!!! HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Series of events:
    Purchased Windows 7 PC. 64 Bit OS
    Installed MS Office 2003
    Installed Acrobat 8.0.
    While I did not have the complete functionality of converting Office documents to pdf's,
    I could print documents and emails to pdfs.
    I then upgraded my Acrobat to X. Still could print to pdf, but not do conversions.
    I then upgraded to Office 2010, 64 bit. After upgrading to Office 2010, I cannot print,or convert documents to pdf using Acrobat X.
    I cannot convert, or print e-mails to Pdf's in Outlook 2011. I cannot print or convert Word documents or Excel spreadsheets to to pdf's.
    The only thing i can do is "Save As" a Word document into a pdf. I cannot use Acrobat X in Excel or Outlook at all.
      Is there a solution to this problem?

  • Can you create a pdf e-mail attachment with working hyperlinks?

    I'm trying to figure out how to generate an e-mail with working hyperlinks where the recipient doesn't have to open the pdf for the links to work...in other words, when they open the e-mail and view the pdf as it is displayed, the links are visible and the viewer can click on them and go to a URL. I see this all the time, and can't figure out how to do it with a pdf (I've added the links with the link took in pdf and they display within the application window, but disappear when the file is an e-mail attachment) or with html. I've attached the pdf that I'm trying to make interactive within an e-mail message. Any help that can be provided is much appreciated!

    Michael your answer is colored by the fact you use an ASCII (Text only) News Reader.
    The answer is more along these lines:
    PDF's can be created with working hyperlinks.
    They can be automatically be brought over from programs such as MS Word, Open Office, and such  provided your on a PC Platform
    they can actually be viewed and clickable from Acrobat or Reader PC Versions, if created from a PC Version.
    they are not viewable or clickable if created from Mac version of Office.
    They are viewable and clickable from a PC if created from Mac version of Office (Word/Excel)
    The Mac can can not do so automatically you must do them Manually with in Acrobat.
    in Past it has been a Pain to do so though may be different in version 9
    If you use a browser Plugin such as Schubert's PDF Browser Plugin that works on Safari, fireFox, Camino, SeaMonkey Opera, OmniPage, iCab. Links you create in Mac version of Acrobat are viewable and clickable.
    Finally MS and Adobe have been having this on going problem since the day's PDF's first hit the market. (Version 1.) and MS  decided to support them. The hooks are there for both PC and Mac versions of Word. and either are capable of being created and acted upon on whether created by the Mac version of Office, or the PC version of Office, but only on a windows PC. Its clearly a problem of Acrobat/Reader on the Mac. Its either a problem Adobe won't own up to, or they can't solve or, this is one item they can't be bothered with to put in the Mac Versions.
    Some of this information is based on my participation in the msnews. nntp newsgroups for Office Mac. The experts there for the most part (MVP's) use both Mac and PC's and have investogated the problem themselves and been give information from the MacBU (Mac Business Unit) at MicroSoft. The basic internal code of Office 2003/2004 is the same. The UI is different and key cobinations are different. And same for 2007/2008 except office 2008 don't support VBA and Macros, and neither 2004 nor 2008 have MasterPages, And thankfully according the the MVP's Thankfully the Robbonis not supported on 2008.

  • Acrobat X problem with image scaling in Excel

    We are using Acrobat X standard with Excel 2007.
    The problem is that when using the Create PDF button on the Acrobat toolbar within Excel, if the document has been scaled using Page Layout-Scale option within Excel, the resulting PDF has the image the correct size, but it has not been scaled. So the dimensions are correct, but only half of the image will be visible.
    To see what I mean, in Excel, add a picture, then choose Page Layout-Scaling and set to e.g. 50%. Check the print preview to see how it should look, and make sure you have a real printer selected in File-Print (NOT Adobe PDF printer). Then create PDF using the toolbar button. The image in the PDF will be wrong.
    This works fine if using native PDF converter (e.g. Save As PDF file) or by printing to the PDF printer, or by using the CreatePDF button when the Adobe PDF printer is selected as default in the print options.
    This seems to be a bug in X as in 9 it worked fine.
    Is there a solution to this?
    Thanks

    I should add, I updated to 10.1 and it did not resolve the issue.

  • Pages converts hyperlinks to local source in .pdf

    We use Pages '09 v4.0.5 in page layout mode to do a monthly newsletter for our MUG. Something I am doing, periodically and not always, causes a hyperlink to become referenced or linked erroneously to my local machine. Even if everything in the document and in the hyperlink box says go to a proper YouTube link. And then we cannot get rid of it. This is the second or third time in recent monthsit has occurred.
    In the current instance, in the the Pages version of the document, with hyperlink enabled, a click makes it reference/go to the proper place. Print/Save that file as a .pdf and it goes to the localhost, wrong place.
    So, we have another MUG member save the Pages version of the newsletter with the hyperlink turned off and the hyperlink replaced in the actual printed document with the total proper URL - not hyperlinked. He emails it back to me - I do not enable hyperlinks nor even open any link in the document. I can copy and paste that URL to a browser and all is fine. I then save the Pages file as a .pdf through the Print dialog and the hyperlink is active automatically, again, in the .pdf to the wrong location.
    One more step. The other MUG member has the Pages version open, with the hyperlink not enabled and the entire URL typed in place. He converts it to a .pdf and emails it. When I receive that email, the link is not active, but when I roll the mouse over the text, not selecting, the little box pops up with the wrong linked reference - not selectable, but still there.
    We think this is a Pages bug. How do they get the word (NPI)?

    If it is only happening on you machine it is probably there the problem is.
    For diagnostic purposes to rule in or out that it is Pages on you machine create a new account an log on to it. Open Pages and do the thing you explained above. does it work now or is it still giving the wrong link.
