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.

  • How can you create a pdf report to attach to an email?

    I have a need to create a PDF report with graphics and signature and somehow attached the PDF document to and email to send out. This is all hopefully done in my APEX application. Has anyone done anything similar?

    I have several projects that use PL/PDF - with the pdf form filling API's - to populate pdf form and then attach the output to a BLOB variable in PL/SQL - which can then be attached to e-mail, displayed to user's browser, and saved into a BLOB column in a table. If you are comfotable with coding PL/SQL packages, this is not difficult to do at all.
    The goodness of PL/PDF is that it is composed of PL/SQL packages with some wrapped Java programs - the output is generated directly from the database. You don't need to deal with the complexity and security concerns of calling an external Java middle tier to return the document. However, if you are not comfortable with PL/SQL coding, this may be a lot of work because the software does not have a report designer like Oracle BI Publisher, which costs more than $90K to run on a 2-CPU Server.
    Thanks.

  • Can you not print pdf to iphoto anymore with OS X Lion?

    Just downloaded Mac OS X Lion.
    Can you noit print pdf to iphoto anymore with OS X Lion?

    From what I am able to determine, the functionality that I enjoyed before upgrading to Lion is no longer available. Previously, one could open a PDF using Preview, select Print and then "Send to iPhoto."  This feature is not there anymore. That is a major disappointment as I used it quite regularly at the non-profit support serviceI volunteer at. 

  • Can you create a PDF in Designer that allows pictures to be later pasted in to it?

    I need to create a PDF that will allow our customers to copy/paste screen shots in to the created PDF document. I have tried this with a dynamic PDF and cannot get it to work. Any ieas if it is possible? And if so how.
    Any advice much appreciated.

    Hi Caroline,
    The issue is that the form you are using has not been Reader Enabled and (by the error message) you are using Reader.
    This means that you will not be able to save the data inputted into the form (including an image into the image field).
    If you are using Reader, then the form needs to be reader enabled in order to give the ability to save data inputted into the form.
    This can be done in two ways:
    (1) If you have Acrobat Standard (v9) or Acrobat Professional (v8 or below), then there is a menu item that will allow you to enable the form. However there are license restrictions (see EULA).
    (2) Using the full LC enterprise Suite Reader Extensions to apply the reader rights. This is a server component and is €€€€.
    I have a summary on the Adobe Cookbooks that summarises the differences in deploying a form and the restrictions that are in place depending on whether the user has Acrobat or Reader and how the form was reader enabled (if at all).
    Summary here: http://cookbooks.adobe.com/post_Using_LiveCycle_Forms_in_Acrobat_and_Reader-16518.html
    The sample in the previous post was not reader enabled and this is why you got the error.
    Hope that helps,
    Niall

  • Can't Open (Sign In) to Mail App with "work account"

    First, I absolutely hate Microsoft Accounts and everything they imply. With that in mind, everything I do with Windows 8.1 I try to avoid or hack around Microsoft Accounts.
    Following the instructions provided in the this technet blog:
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/pauljones/archive/2013/10/07/windows-8-1-mail-app-without-microsoft-account.aspx
    I had hoped to gain access to the Mail App without a Microsoft Account.
    Apparently, even this "fix" was snake oil.
    First let me say, it's not that I can't sign into the Mail App. I can't open it. The entrance to the Mail App is purposefully blocked by the need for a Microsoft Account or some mysterious "Sign in with your work account".
    The actual details needed to for that "work account" (is it an "Enterprise Account"??) are not documented and there is no way around it.
    The instructions that Microsoft does provide tell me to swipe and open up settings... then add an account--like IMAP. That is impossible to perform, because the mail app is not open. The settings for the Mail App are not available and there is no "account"
    button to press yet.
    So my question is simple. How do I fake the Mail App into thinking there is some "work account" that will open the front door and let me configure basic IMAP email, etc. You know, like in the old simple way that work for thirty years before the
    brown's at microsoft decided to change it.

    My best answer would be to suggest you use Thunderbird Email client.
    However I have had success with a combination of the following Group Policy settings
    Run the program "gpedit" (gpedit.msc) and after making the changes you can run "gpupdate /force" to apply the changes to the current logged in user, or simply restart the computer.
    You can totally disable the use of Microsoft Accounts and the Windows Store, while still allowing users to make used of already installed Windows Store Apps.  
    NB: If you want to use any Windows Store Apps, install the apps before disabling Windows Store.
    You can still enable the automatic updating of Windows Store Apps, even when the Windows Store is disabled.

    Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\Internet Communications Management\Internet Communications settings\"Turn off access to the Store" to "Disabled"
    Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\App runtime\"Allow Microsoft accounts to be optional" to "Enabled"  (NB: allows the use of Windows Store apps even when the use of a Microsoft Account is disabled, this setting will be
    required if you want to use the Mail App)
    Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Store\"Turn off the Store application" to "Enabled"
    Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Store\"Turn off Automatic Download and Install of updates" to "Enabled"

    If you want to disable Syncing of data, see;

    You may have to try connecting with few different email accounts, I was about to succeed with a Exchange account.

  • How can you create a playlist with music and music video and play those from same playlist through Apple TV?

    How can you create a playlist on Ipod touch with music and music video,  and play those from same playlist through Apple TV?  I can download, create a playlist with both music and music video, stream that through the Apple TV with no problem.  The sound and the information show up on the TV, but when it gets to a music video, it only shows the information and "artwork".
    I also have a video playlist - videos play fine through the Apple TV, but will not shuffle through all videos - continues to repeat the same one.  I have most definitely selected shuffle in both locations - from the playlist and on the ipod video screen while video is playing.

    I finally got it... had to sync the photos with the music in iMovie, arrange the voiceover in GarageBand then export to iTunes, and then I was able to put it all together in iMovie and burn in iDVD... had a few glitches along the way but finally finished : )

    You can make a PDF file out of you notes and handouts but using the Adobe PDF printer.
    Open your PowerPoint Document then go to “File” “Print”
    Select ‘Adobe PDF” Printer
    Under slides, select which way you want to print. Note it will not print to a printer but to a PDF file.
    After then go into printer Properties and Setup PDF properties, do the following: (see second image below)
    Default: PDF/A 1-b
    Adobe Security: none (change as needed)
    Adobe Output folder: Prompt for Adobe file name
    Adobe Page size: Letter (change as needed)
    Check the following check boxes
    View Adobe PDf Results,
    Add Document Information,
    Rely on system fonts only,
    Delete Log files for successful jobs.
    Select OK
    A pop will ask you where you want to save the document. The file extension should be PDF. After giving the file name select okay and the file should popup as a PDF. Down side is if you want to speaker notes included then you will have to do another file, like wise with just screen shots then combine into one PDF document.
    I used Acrobat IX Pro. So to do this you need Acrobat IX or X Pro.
    Hope this will help.

  • How can you add an image in Mail without being an attachment?

    How can you add an image in Mail without being an attachment?
    In otherwords I'd like to put my logo in the email not as an attachment but as an image.
    Is there a simpel solution to this problem?

    You don't.
    It's not possible. The e-mail protocol is designed for text; anything else has to go as an attachment.
    Different mail clients (such as Mail.app, the mail client bundled with Mac OS X) may have different ways of handling such attachments, but they are still attachments. Each mail client has its own rules and methods, so one may display a picture as if it were in the body of the message, but another client may do something completely different.
    A way of faking it is to format your message in HTML (which is a kind of text). The image is hosted on a remote server, not added to the message; instead, you include a link to it in the body of the message, as you would when building a web page. (This is also what the two tips helpfully provided by X423424X do, except that the link to the image is added in the signature, rather than the body of the message.) What exactly happens to it is, again, at the discretion of the mail client. In my case, for instance, displaying images in HTML messages is turned off, and will stay resolutely off.

  • Can you create a .ics file from entries in a PDF?

    Hi,
    I'm wondering if anyone can help me: Can you create a .ics file from entries in PDF?
    Example:
    I'm wanting people to be able to choose a number of dates for some events within a PDF, then click a button that will then create a (or number of) .ics files so they can add those dates to the calendar of their choice. Is this possible?
    Thanks

    Using the solution supplied by Leonia, and cited by Keith, you can do the same thing (flopping the Curve profiles) in LightRoom. So, it makes sense. Though I didn't know know it worked for Color Negatives.
    A friend of mine with a Nikon Coolscan is going to scan nearly 150 B&W rolls of 35mm negatives for me, and I want to import them all into Aperture, naming and keywording as I go. The objective is, of course, to have the convenience of a diigtal library. But also to have some made into large prints for framing.
