Creating Hyperlink in Adobe Reader Pro 9

I am trying to create a Hyperlink within a pdf with Adobe Reader Pro 9.  The way I understand it is that you are suppose to highlight the text to be used as the hyperlink and use the tool function that looks like two chain links together.  The problem is that that tool is greyed out so that I cannot use it.  I have opened multiple documents and they are all like this.  Can anyone tell me what the issue is?

First, we need to know what product you actually have. There is no Adobe Reader Pro 9. There is Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat Pro. Reader cannot create links or edit PDF files. Acrobat can.

  • Native Mac alternative to Adobe Reader Pro

    Hello people,
    I'm looking after an alternative to Adobe Acrobat Reader Pro, through which i can create custom forms with fixed text and text fields (that not only can accept text input but in some cases show possible options from drop down menus) kinda like a smart PDF form.
    I don't like using Adobe products at all and pretty much have a grudge on Adobe. The alternative doesn't really even need PDF support but if it can export to PDF that might be a plus. I use PDFPen Pro but that doesn't do what i explained above.
    Was also looking at Filemaker (yes i know it's a DB app) in a possible conjunction with PDF Manipulator plugin but i don't think that will help me do what i need to accomplish. The end goal would be to create a dozen PDF, or whatever format, forms that can simplify the work in my small business, since we do work with a lot of repetitive documents that need change only in some small parts.
    Do you guys have any idea?
    Thanks

    There's no such thing as Adobe Reader Pro. There is Adobe Acrobat, which creates PDFs and Adobe Reader which reads PDFs. Finding an alternative to Acrobat might be difficult in that Adobe owns the PDF format. PDFPen is the only one I've heard of, but I'm not really in the market for that software.
    If you are looking for another format to use in-house, that may be possible, but I don't know of any.
    I have worked in the Air Force for over 20 years. In that time I've seen them go through various iterations of Form creation and filling software. Every time I've had to ask myself, "why don't we just use Acrobat?" I don't know if it is a licensing thing, but we license all of Microsoft, so I'm not sure that's the answer.
    An in-house database solution would likely work for the small number of forms you need. So would Mail Merge in Word. You can create fill-in forms in Word, also. It will do dropdown menu selections, check boxes, etc.

  • Scam email: Adobe-Reader-Pro

    A variation on an old scam was received this morning by the company that I work for.  At first glance it looks genuine by its simplicity but has anyone ever heard of Adobe Reader Pro?  There is the official looking logo and even an address in California but simple checks can confirm the scam. I am told that clicking on the links will result in a bunch of malware being installed into your computer.  Below is the text from the message received this morning:

  • Edit pdf with Adobe Reader Pro XI?

    How do I edit a PDF file with Adobe Reader Pro XI?

    "How" very much depends on what exactly you want to achieve.  Basically you open it in Acrobat, then use the tools to edit it.  You may need to perform text recognition (OCR) if the document is a scanned image.
    If you need details how to do certain edits, you better ask in the Acrobat forum (Creating, Editing & Exporting PDFs).

  • Filling in PDF forms in Adobe Reader Pro 9

    I downloaded trial of Adobe Reader Pro 9. I need to fill in PDF forms for my job. I can't type anything in them. I enabled "Typewriter" but still can't type in them. Do I need to download an old Acrobat 7 or something to do this? Help! I need to do this by Monday (Dec 29).

    There is no such thing. Check to see what you downloaded then get back to us for advice.

  • Adobe Reader / Pro XI bug with PDF as embedded object in Microsoft Excel

    We are using Adobe Reader and Adobe Pro version 11.0.06, Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit, with a mixture of MS Office 2010 and 2013.
    We have been able to reproduce a bug using Reader/Pro together with Excel, where Reader/Pro freezes when we preform the following tasks.
    Open an Excel file where a PDF file is attached as an object in the spreadsheet
    Double click and open the PDF file attached, PDF is opened in Adobe Reader/Pro
    From Adobe Reader/Pro, click on the document on the Page Thumbnails, scroll the document up and down for a few times
    Close the Adobe Reader/Pro, it freezes and the adobe process is starting to consume the system memory
    This problem is happening on multiple machines with Adobe Reader/Pro 11.0.06 installed, regardless of the Office version and is reproducible. We did not see such issue on Adobe X.
    Is there anyone reported the same?

    Hello,
    I know this problem was reported many months ago, but I am also experiencing this exact same issue, and have found no resolution to it yet. My user has a simple PDF embedded into an Excel 2010 document. Double click the PDF and it opens properly in Acrobat. If I close Acrobat, Excel freezes in the background (not responding). I have to force quit Excel to get back to Excel.
    Also, if I double click on Acrobat again to re-open the application, it won't open. If I check Task Manager after Excel crashes, I can see that Acrobat.exe is still running in memory, and I have to force-quit it before I can re-open Acorbat.
    Any progress on this issue?

  • Problem with virtualized Adobe Reader Pro!!!

    We have Virtualized Adobe Reader Pro 10.0  with MS application Virtualized 5.0.  Users are facing issue to open write-protected pdf with the virtualized adobe while they can open normal pdf with the same virtualized adobe. Any hints that we might consider for this issue – in the way what happens in the back-end when a write-protected document is opened? Also does Adobe has any policy when it comes to virtualisation?

    Adobe Reader 11.0.1 and later are the only supported versions of Adobe Reader that are currently supported.

  • Adobe Reader Pro -

    Hello,
    I have signed into our trial account of the Adobe Reader Pro-
    I have selected a PDF Document to Convert to Excel....
    Once I click on CONVERT
    I get the message An Error Occurred while signing in....
    However I have signed in ok and been able to select the documents to convert....
    Why would I be getting this message?
    Thanks in advance...

    Hi nrpenny,
    It sounds as though you may not have the most current version of Adobe Reader. Please choose Help > Check for Updates in Reader and install any available update. The 11.0.07 update should alleviate this sign-in error.
    Please let us know how it goes.
    Best,
    Sara

  • Activate Adobe Reader Pro 9

    How To Activate

    Confusion.
    There is no such thing as "Adobe Reader Pro 9". Consequently that which does not exist cannot be activated.
    If the application that is actually in use is any version of Adobe Reader there is no activation required for this free PDF viewer application provided by Adobe.
    If the application that is actually in use is Acrobat Pro 9 then install issues may be related to the fact that the version "9" product family passed into End of Support mid-year of 2013.
    Regardless the place to ask after Acrobat related install / update issues is at:

    Si vous avez besoin d'autre info je vous posterai.
    Merci
    Di Blasio Michael

    Sorry, the problem is indeed not clear. You are using Acrobat trial, not Reader. These are two different products. Several possible things to consider from what I think I may understand:
    1. Try F8 and/or F9 to switch on/off toolbars and menus.
    2. In the Help menu run Repair and then Updates. It may be that you are not running the most current version.
