Adobe Acrobat - Link Function

Hello,
I am a manual publisher and the format of my manual is in PDF. The manual is created using Adobe Page Maker and converted into PDF.
At the moment, the "table of content" is not linked to the content. I would like to create link to it but I do not want to create the link one by one.
Is there a unique method/3rd party plug-in which allows table of content to be linked to the content in a simpler method.
For your information, I am using Adobe Acrobat Professional 9.

You should probably set this up in PageMaker, and then have the links automatically embedded in the PDF.
Try asking in the PageMaker forum: http://forums.adobe.com/community/pagemaker_general

  • I cannot open adobe acrobat links

    I have attempted to open several different adobe acrobat links (on the same website), and they will not open. I used them earlier today and they worked. Since then I ran MacKeeper because my mid 2007 Macbook was running really slow. This later attempt was after running MacKeeper. Any idea what the problem is?

    Back up all data.
    Quit Safari. In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then launch Safari and test.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

  • Problems with Adobe Acrobat links on a web site

    Can anyone help me solve the following:
    1) LINKS: I have a series of Acrobat files (15) connected with each other by more than a thousand links. I made them few years ago for a CD of a religious nature (for free distribution). The links assume that all the files they point to are in the same directory. On the CD all worked perfectly.
    I'm now opening a web site and, even if my Acrobat files are in the same directory of the server, when I open the site each file is loaded on a different “Temp”. directory. This occurs even when the files are "packed" in one *pkg,pdf file. In this case, all packaged files are opened by a single click but are still loaded each on different directory and thus the existing links don't work.
    Combining all files in a single one, would entail redirecting all links and also result into a huge file manageable only if the "visitor" had an optical fibre connection.
    I work with Acrobat Standard 8.1 and with Windows XP professional.

    Thanks for info. I'll try it and advise you of outcome.

    There is no way that you can do what you want standard weblinks. However, you might try to place all of the files on a webdav, and make that publicly available. That might work.

  • Adobe Acrobat links display as blank black page - sometimes white. How do I solve this?

    I currently run Firefox 3.6.9. I receive some utility bills on line in Adobe. When I access the provided link, the Adobe tab displays a completely black and blank screen. On occasion it turns white eventually, but still blank.
    If I try my previous version of Firefox all works well.
    I compared the Options settings - they are the same.
    Any suggestions?

    Thanks Steve,
    Do you know if this also applies to standard transitions and not just the page turning one? Page turning transition is the only one which requires you to export as an swf file.
    Thanks

  • Check broken links in Adobe Acrobat

    Hey everybody,
    I am searching for a Plugin for Adobe Acrobat 9.0 Professional, which check brocken links in a pdf-document and create a report with all brocken links. Here I mean links like www.microsoft.com. A broken link link is www.12nmu8098.com . The report must conclud the broken link and the number of broken links in the document.
    Best regards
    hallodu1889

    Thanks for your answer. I tested this plugin but it functioned not correctly. Normaly the result of the test of www.rez2828zdhs.com must show, that it is a broken link. The report of this plugin shows that this is a correct link. Do you you know an other plugin?
    Best regard

  • Indexing function in Adobe Acrobat Pro

    I am currently using the 30 day trial version of the above software, and am new to the Adobe product.  I am able to import a file created in MS Publisher, but am now attempting to create an index file.  I searched on the web and found this reference (presumably for a diferent version of the product, since I cannot see this menu item) :
    "Add an index to a PDF
    With the document open in Acrobat, choose Advanced > Document Processing > Manage Embedded Index.
    In the Manage Embedded Index dialog box, click Embed Index.
    Read the messages that appear, and click OK. "
    There is no such menu path in the application that I am evaluating (Adobe Acrobat X), nor can I see it in the "Tools" pane. I am attempting to take a series if .pub files, import them into .pdf format,  then create an index on all of these files (for use both in a soft copy search function, and a printable index for a hard copy format).
    Subject to being able to perform this and some other functions, we are intending to purchase the product for our annual publications.

    Thanks for any help.  My specialty is economics and numbers, so I'm very much a newby at publications.
    Bruce.

    "Index" in context of PDFs/Acrobat means PDF page content indexed to support advanced search.
    Not at all the traditional "index" found at the end of hard copy text.
    Unlike MS Word, MS Publisher does not provide the traditional "Index" feature.
    You might need to investigate if MS Word (or some third-party Index application) could interface with the Publisher files such that the traditional Index you desire could be built. An index, in a Word file, can be part of the created PDF(s) page content.
    However, an MS Word generated index does not use Word's "Hyperlink" feature - so, no links within the Word file and thus no link(s) in the PDF.
    To get to Acrobat X's "Index" feature:
    (Also described in Acrobat X on line Help)
    Open Acrobat X's Tools pane. If a sub-pane titled "Document Processing" is present then expand it.
    If not present then, on the right side of the gray ribbon just under Tools | Comment | Share click on the icon.
    Select "Document Processing" from the associated menu.
    In the expanded Document Processing sub-pane the bottom two entries are associated with the Index feature.
    In context of having several PDFs from the PUB files a cataloged index might be more useful.
    Be well...

  • Link functionality in acrobat standard or pro

    Hello
    I would like to know if the link functionality (via 'tools../advanced editing/ link tool) is available in the standard edition of adobe acrobat or just in the professional.
    Since there is no trial for the standard version I cannot test it.

    The link tool is availbale in all editions.

  • This file requires Adobe Acrobat Reader to support tracking functionality

    All PDF files uploaded to our Adobe Connect Content libraries (hosted) are displaying a window with the message "This file requires Adobe Acrobat Reader to support tracking functionality".  I have 2 hosted accounts and both have this issue (which started today). We were upgraded to version 9.1 over the weekend also. Is anyone else seeing this and do you know of a resolution?

    Update: We have not been able to confirm whose update (MS or Adobe) caused this issue, but the  one of the resolutions (enabled Reader Add-on) has broken something else.
    Enabled add-on: Enabling the Reader add-on resolved the issue of not being able to view PDFs, but now prevents the PDF from opening in the application. Instead, it now opens in the browser, which causes links on the PDF to open the linked file in the same window. That results in the return of those end user support issues. http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/display-pdf-browser-acrobat-xi.html
    Reader: In some cases, enabling the Reader Add-on did not resolve the issue until Reader was uninstalled and/or reinstalled.
    We hope this information helps others.
    Does anyone know how to get rid of the Adobe Advertisement that now appears in all PDFs that open in the browser? Note: It does not appear in all versions of Reader (e.g. Reader 9)?

  • I installed my old Adobe Acrobat 7 pro on my win 7 computer but couldn't activate...the CS deleted it and gave me a new linke to install which wouldn't work.  They lost all my work.  CS sucks.

    I had on old copy of Adobe Acrobat Pro 7 which I purchased full price.  I needed it to fill in my mothers inheritance tax.  I could not activate it so was in the trial period.  I contacted Customer support to be allowed to activate it.  They asked no questions on which OS I was on and send me a link.  The link downloaded the program, but upon install found I had a later version.  I  resumed the call with customer support (30 minute hold) and told them the issue.  They woman (indian) told me to uninstall my old Acrobrat pro and install the program she had sent me.  I did that, error messages.  She (without notice) had put me on another 30 minute hold.  I could no longer install my old version (which they would not let me activate) or the "newer" version because of error codes.  I tried the new ID number and the old ID number with my disc.  Both were invalid.  I called in on a home line as the assistant on the cell line was on permanent hold.  He explained they no longer supported that version and it would not work with Windows 7 (funny it worked before I called them, but could not be activated...so I was 23 days into a 30 day trial period).  Finally the cell girl came back on and lied to me saying I said the software would not work. All I needed was an activation code, I understood not all features would work, but I had tested what I needed and that worked fine.  She argued that it could not install on Windows 7 (false as I had already done it).  She hung up.  The guy on my land line came back with the same lines, but understood CS had worsened my situation. He had no solution for 30 minutes...until he offered the free trial version of version 11.  I have an xp computer (old) I could have used, they just invalidated the serial and activation numbers.  They wanted me to buy the new version.  I don't need that.  I lost half my data.  Their CS (indian) sucks to the max.

    Since the bookmarks are gone, I no longer have the link to the page for AA7 files that get around the activation issue of the AA7 activation server being gone. In any case, AA7 is not compatible with Win7. You can create workarounds, but both the print driver and AcroTray will not work. You can install another PS driver (even some from Adobe available), change the name to Adobe PDF, and set the port to FILE. Assuming you can find the AA7 link that was part of the old CS and can install it, you will have to run this work around. To use it, you print to the Adobe PDF printer you have created (or even PDF Maker (though not compatible with OFFICE after 2003 as I recall). You then open the file in Distiller to create a PDF. This latter step is what AcroTray normally takes care of, but it does not work in Win7.
    Good luck.

  • I have been unable to download adobe acrobat pro, which I purchased on a month to month basis almost exactly 1 year ago, since I purchased it. I just received a renewal email and it had a link to download the program and for the first time when I clicked

    I have been unable to download adobe acrobat pro, which I purchased on a month to month basis almost exactly 1 year ago, since I purchased it. I just received a renewal email and it had a link to download the program and for the first time when I clicked on the link it actually sent me to a page that had the icon to download now. I clicked on that, but when I went to open the file and start downloading after about 3 minutes into downloading it says an error had occurred. Can anyone help me?

    I am a little worried. If you are an existing subscriber why would Adobe need you to download... I wonder if the message is a fake.
    I'm not clear, if you've had it for a year, whether you need to download, or you are just following the email?
    This page with the icon to download now. Was it a page on adobe.com ?

  • How do I add a functional "submit button" to a pdf form in Adobe Acrobat Pro XI ? I created the pdf form in Adobe Forms Central.

    How do I add a functional "submit button" to a pdf form in Adobe Acrobat Pro XI ? I created the pdf form in Adobe Forms Central. It's for an online Diet Questionnaire. After people complete the form I'd like them to click "SUBMIT" and the completed form will be emailed to me.

    This can be a bit confusing because Acrobat 11 comes with the desktop app that allows you to create simple PDF forms without having a FormsCentral account. Some people find this helpful, but you need to understand that when you generate the PDF form, it is Reader-enabled by Acrobat. In order to edit the form further in Acrobat, you have to create a non-enabled copy of the form. You do this in Acrobat by opening the form and selecting: File > Save a Copy
    and opening the copy. It is not opened automatically.
    You can now add a button and set it up to submit by email, either using a "Submit a form" action or the submitForm JavaScript method. You can set it up to include just the form data or the entire PDF, and will want to use a mailto type URL. Submitting the form to the FormsCentral server has a number of important advantages over email (much more reliable, more secure, etc.), so you might want to consider it.
    If the form needs to be saved with Reader versions prior to 11, then you will need to Reader-enable the document. In Acrobat 11 you do this by selecting: File > Save As Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools
