Add Links throughout pdf file to sticky notes

I want to be able to click on a word on one page of a pdf file and it will take me to another page of the same pdf and open a sticky note.  Is this possible.  Any suggestions appreciated. 

Thanks for that information.
I did not see that the “go to view link” could change documents. I thought it was only within a document.
I manually added two “go to view links” and that seems to work on both mac and pc computers.
That brings up two questions.
For old files can a acrobat java script batch file be setup to read the hyperlinks in a pdf document  and replace them with a “go to view link” style?
Can one place a “go to view link” style in a word document and then have the adobe convert to acrobat process it into the pdf format with the rest of the document? (or set up the converter to make word hyperlinks change to pdf “go to view links”?

  • Add link to PDF file

    Suppose a PDF file has some URL string like http://abc.com and also has some email address string, such as [email protected] and also has a table of contrnts. Is there any programming way
    1. Extract those URL or Email String
    2. Add link (action) to those URL or Email string so when user click URL, it will bring browser to that URL, when user click email address, it will bring up some email software, such as Outlook to get a email dialog window.
    3. Add some link to the table of content so when user click a chapter line in the table of contents, then PDF jump to the page of the start of that chapter.
    Thanks,

    Hi qpan
    Yes, there is. Using LC Assembler (invoke DDX service) you can extract, import and replace links within a pdf document. There is a detailed tutorial called "Developing Applications for LiveCycle Assembler" (page 69-71).
    Here are some DDX samples:
    Exporting links from multiple sources:
    <Links result="links1.xfdf">
    <PDF source="doc1.pdf" />
    <PDF source="doc2.pdf" />
    </Links>
    Replacing links:
    <PDF result="doc3.pdf">
    <PDF source="doc2.pdf">
    <Links source="links1.xfdf" />
    </PDF>
    </PDF>

  • Links to pdf files created in DW not working

    Linking a pdf file to an html page where the expectation is that clicking on the link will display the pdf file in the browser is common. A page that I created would not display my linked pdf files. Google searches suggest this is a common problem with perhaps a variety of causes.
    I found that the solution to my problem was to remove my "mark of the web" statement. When this <!-- saved from url=(0014)about:internet --> appeared on my web page, pdf links would not open in my browser; when I removed the "mark of the web," all worked fine.

    Personally I always download pdfs for offline reading.
    I do, too.
    As a courtesy, I always tell site visitors what they are clicking on and the file size.   If you want to force a download, you can zip the PDF file ahead of time, and post a link to the zip file.

    Delta Enterprises said it would contact the customers who bought 600,000 of these cribs to send them additional parts to make the mechanism safer.
    +The other 985,000 cribs under recall, made in Indonesia and Taiwan, use safety pegs in the gate mechanism that customers must install.+
    +The recall is one of the largest in US history and follows another recall of 2,000 cribs, also made in China, which was issued by the CPSC on Thursday. A five-month-old infant suffocated after being trapped between the mattress and the crib side and prompted the recall Playkids USA cribs.+
    hope i explained clearly.
    Please help me.. im struggling lot...
    Thanks in advance.

    It is, but only if you do it using a script, not through the built-in "Open a web link"-action. Add a "Run a JavaScript"-action with this code:
    app.launchURL("http://www.google.com", true);
    Of course, you can change the URL to whatever you want.

  • Problem linking to PDF file from generated help

    I am using RoboHelp HTML, Version 7.02 to create WebHelp, and
    I cannot open a PDF file that I linked to some text in a topic. (I
    created a PDF file that contains all of the help system's topics so
    users can print them all.)
    I can open the PDF file just fine when I preview the topic,
    but I cannot open the PDF file from the generated help system. (I
    set up the link to open in a new window.) When I click the link for
    the PDF file, nothing happens, not even an error message. If I
    right-click the link and select Properties from the menu, the
    Properties dialog box shows the following path to the file:
    file:///C:/Users/Myname/Documents/My%20RoboHelp%20Projects/project%20folder%20
    name/!SSL!/WebHelp/print_all_help_topics.pdf
    To create the link, I first copied the PDF file into my
    project folder, Then I right-clicked the Baggage Files folder and
    selected New>Baggage File, and clicked Open to add the file to
    my Baggage Files folder. Then I dragged the file name from the
    Baggage Files folder onto the selected text in my topic, saved all
    and generated the WebHelp.
    Does anyone have any ideas how I can fix this problem?
    Thanks!

    Hi Rick.
    Yes, mark of the web is selected. I just turned that option
    off and re-generated and the PDF opens just fine, but of course,
    I'm getting the Internet Explorer message that my browser is trying
    to restrict the webpage from running ActiveX controls ... I was
    using mark of the web so that my customer's users won't get this
    message, although I don't know what ActiveX controls my help system
    would be running. I'm just hoping that my customer doesn't balk at
    this message appearing. Is turning off mark of the web is my only
    choice for getting the link to work?
    Thanks for your help and your welcome message. In case you
    can't tell, I'm a newbie to RoboHelp. BTW, your website was
    invaluable in helping me to create the link to begin with. Thank
    you!

  • How to create link for pdf file in discoverer worksheet

    Hi All,
    I would like to create a link for pdf file into discoverer report (worksheet).
    So that i can open linked pdf file using worksheet link.
    Can any one tell me about this?
    Thanks
    Ravi

    Hi,
    I think the best way to do this is to use a database directory so that you can access your pdf file as a bfile. Then create a mod_plsql procedure that sets the mime type and downloads the pdf file. You then create a calculation in the EUL then returns the URL to your mod_plsql procedure. You can then include this calculation as a hyperlink in your worksheet.
    It is not as difficult as it sounds. Please let me know if you need anymore details.

  • Can't seem to add artwork to pdf files

    In the "Books" tab, I can add artwork to epub books, but I can't seem to add artwork to pdf files. Is this a normal thing? Or is there something I'm doing wrong?
    Also, do you know what I should be setting my page widths to if I want the pdf files I create to display nicely in Portrait mode on an iPhone? The ones I made seem to only look nice in Landscape mode.

    Devin,  If they end in .ogg, they are OGG Vorbis files.  This is a well-known open-source music format, but iTunes is unable to play it.
    Also, as you have just learned, when iTunes encounters a file that is not copmatible, it "errors silently," i.e. gives no indication of what they problem is.
    To resolve it, use a 3rd party conversion program such as Switch to convert the OGG files into MP3, and then they will add to iTunes.

  • Can i add watermarks to PDF files using the PDF Pack?

    Can i add watermarks to PDF files using the PDF Pack?

    Hi Susannah,
    Adobe PDF Pack does not allow you to edit a PDF file. For that, you would need Acrobat. You're welcome to try Acrobat for free for 30 days: see http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html for more information.

  • How to combine typed text from several pdf files into 1 (not comments)

    I have a fillable pdf form that people can type answers to questions into, then save the pdf into an electronic file. Sticky notes are not used, as this pdf was created using Adobe LiveCycle Designer's text field (that is what they type into). I am wondering if there is a way to combine all peoples' answers from the text field all into one pdf document just like you can do to combine all sticky note comments into one single pdf. This is not a LiveCycle Designer type question. Thank you for your help!

    You would have to flatten or print each filled form to a new file and then combine. If you try to combine multiple filled forms directly, you will end up with all of the pages having the same information since all the fields on each form have the same name. Since the form was create in Designer, you may only be able to print in Acrobat. Otherwise, you would probably have to do the changes in Designer. Once you have a file in Designer, you can no longer edit it in Acrobat and that is why the Acrobat route would probably require a print to the Adobe PDF printer for each form.

  • How to validate all hyperlinks, including links in pdf files?

    Dreamweaver's link checker only checks links in html files. Is there's a Dreamweaver plug in I could use to check links (all kinds of links) in pdf files on my site?  I haven't been able to find one and would appreciate suggestions. Thanks.

    Not a DW extension but look at Xenu's Link Sleuth.

  • Links to PDF files with relative paths from a Captivate 4 project

    I'm creating a presentation in Captivate 4 (I'm making an exe file) with some links to PDF files; the links are buttons with the 'open URL or file' set. The presentation will be distributed in CDs and obviously the links will not work for they point to an absolute path in my PC. Is there another way to display external files? thanks

    "file:\file folder\filename" is not a relative path.  It's still an absolute path because you're specifying the path all the way from the root drive, whether you used a drive letter or not.
    A relative path shows where to find the other file in relation to the file that is calling it.
    Relative paths look like this:
    myDoc.doc (if the file is in the same directory as the file calling it)
    folderName/myDoc.doc (if the file is inside a folder in the same directory as the file calling it)
    ../myDoc.doc (if the file is located in the parent directory above the file that is calling it)
    ../../myDoc.doc (if the file is located two levels above the file that is calling it)
    etc
    Here's a tutorial that explains it better: http://www.communitymx.com/content/article.cfm?cid=230ad

  • Insert/link a PDF file in MM02 transaction.

    hi
    I would like to know if it is possible to insert/link a PDF file in MM02 transaction.
    Please let me now something.

    Hi Vale,
      I think that it would be possible to insert the pdf file to the MM02 transaction: Please try following the below steps:
    1) Follow the path : MM02 -> System -> Service for Object -> Create -> Create External Document (URL).
    2) You will get a popup saying "Create a link for Web page".
    3) Fill in the required details as per the requirement. Give the appropriate title, Location for the file to be attached ( Path ),
    4) Click on Execute button, SAVE.
    Note: Please remember to provide the file extension like .pdf while attaching the file. Else the file wont be displayed when you try to display the attached file.
    Thanks

  • RH9 TOC Links to PDF files are quirky

    I have a project that consists of TOC book links to PDF files. In RH6 I always just manually popped them into the \!SSL!\WebHelp folder and linked to them from TOC books because importing them into the project took days. Or 20 minutes at least. Some of these files were 300 pages, so I manually loaded the smaller files too, to maintain procedural consistency. Either way, manually loading them is fastest so it just makes sense.
    I'm doing this in RH9, and it works just fine in the live project. The problem is in Robohelp. No sooner do I close the project and reopen it, but all the books have question marks with crosses through them as if they have broken links. They do not.  The links are STILL fine, and when I compile the project they open, just as they should. In RH6 this wasn't remotely an issue.
    Is this a bug? I went back and redid the links twice before realizing it wasn't me, it was Robohelp. So whenever I open a project that has a TOC book link to an outside file, like a .pdf, or .ppt, or xls or whatever, is this going to happen? I lose visual clues for the broken links because they ALL appear to be broken?

    Hi Maureen
    I used to encounter this all the time with RoboHelp X5. And it coaxed me into developing what I feel is an interesting and more reliable approach.
    Have you noticed that even on a fast intranet it seems to take an inordinate amount of time to open a PDF? I mean, with most of your topics, the user clicks and nearly instantly something happens. The topic generally loads right up in the topic pane. But a PDF, Word document or other file seems to take eons to load. Well, comparatively.
    So I developed this thing I referred to as a "docfetch". Basically, I created regular RoboHelp topics. Linked those topics to the books pages or whatever. Then configured those topics to redirect to the PDF, Word document or other.
    The expected benefit was that because I was now actually linking to topics in the project, those funky mysteriously broken links in the TOC disappeared. The unexpected side benefit was that users then saw an immediate response to clicking the link. I configured each of these topics to present some verbiage to the effect that they should please wait as the document was being opened. This put a stop to users reporting that things were "broken" as they then saw an immediate response.
    The code you need will be placed in the HTML of the topic. Just insert it somewhere in the Head area.
    <meta HTTP-EQUIV=refresh CONTENT="3;URL=File_Name.pdf">
    Of course you will want to adjust it to suit your own needs. For example, the line above is configured for a 3 second delay. You may want a shorter (or longer) delay. And you would adjust File_Name.pdf to reflect the path and file name of the PDF (or other file) you are linking to.
    Hope this helps... Rick
