Creating Hyperlinks

I know how to create hyperlinks to a place in the same document, and to another document; the result is that it just goes to the top of the other document.
What I'd really like to know is how to create a hyperlink to a specific place
in another document.  For example, I have a series of  documents that necessarily use technical terminology.  I also have a glossary in a separate document, which is rather long.  What I need to do, if possible, is to
create a hyperlink where a term is used, that will go to the definition of that term in the glossary.
Is this possible to do?

We can use bookmark to make this, here are the steps:
Insert a bookmark in the destination file.
Open the file that you want to link from, and select the text or object you want to display as the hyperlink.
Right-click and then click Hyperlink on the shortcut menu.
Under Link to, click Existing File or Web Page.
In the Look in box, click the down arrow, and navigate to and select the file that you want to link to.
Click Bookmark, select the bookmark that you want, and then click
OK.
You can also create a hyperlink by dragging the specific content from another Word document to the file that you want to link from.
Open the document where you want to add a hyperlink.
Open the destination document and select the text, graphic, or other item you want to go to.
Right-click the selected item, drag it to the task bar and rest over the icon of the document to which you want to add a hyperlink.
Release the right mouse button where you want the hyperlink to appear on the page, and then click
Create Hyperlink Here Button image.

    Hi
    Create two links one Back and one Next in each report.
    Drag two free standing cells in the report and use opendocument syntax to create the links.
    The thread Re: Hyperlink Back functionality may give an idea.

  • How to create hyperlinks in Acrobat 9 Pro?

    Hi everyone,
    Is there a way to create hyperlinks from within Acrobat 9 Pro? If so, can you let me know how? I am having a hard time finding out how to do so.
    Thank you in advance for your help:)

    I did this from the advanced menu to make all hyperlinks work. All I got were boxes around my links that are not clikcable to the web page.
    Now I cannot undo this.

  • How to automatically create hyperlink destinations based on numbered list?

    I am very new to InDesign and am creating a template for an academic journal. Each article contains a list of references at the end and the references are cited in the main text (like what you see in Wikipedia if you are not familiar with scientfic journal articles). In exported HTML, the citation in the main text should be hyperlinked to the coressponding reference in the reference list. I have two questions:
    1) It is possible to ask paragraphy style to assign each numbered item a hyperlink destination? If this is possible, I can then manually inserted hyperlinks in the main text.
    2) one step further, is there any way (e.g. script) which can then insert hyperlink to those destinations based on pattern match? For example, in main text, the citation to reference #1 appear in the text as [1] which should be hyperlinked to reference #1.
    One more question, is there anyone who knows how academic journals handle the flow from InDesign to html? Certainly, the exported html cannot go directly online without further editing.
    Thank you.

    Hi Eric,
    I posted the script here. But it should be adjusted to your particular document. (Anyone with basic scripting knowledge can do this). I am sure it won’t work as it is. I assume that “comments” and “references” are in two different stories.
    Can I have the scripts from you (for a fee or free)?
    I don't sell my scripts: they're free.
    Can the scripts handle the pattens like these [3], [1-5], [3,4], [6, 8, 11-13]?
    This script can't, but another handles both single page numbers and page ranges like so:
    I can post it as well.
    Now I’d like to make one thing clear:
    I made a set of scripts for creating hyperlinks in InDesign documents for further exporting them to ePub/HTML. I can’t make a script that would work for everyone because all books are very different. I simply adjusted scripts for every book I had to work with (mainly changing GREP expressions and names of styles) and I have numerous variations of scripts. I can post them if someone is interested but you should be aware that they have to be reworked.

  • My customer wants to create hyperlinks in the editor - surely this is possible?  And, if so, how?

    My customer simply wants to create hyperlinks when adding content to her site; this doesn't seem possible within the Muse editing interface.  It must be, surely?  That's the most basic thing to do with a web page. 

    At current stage In browser editing does not includes hyperlinks , but that’s definitely a request we hear often. Unfortunately we can’t comment on what features are coming to Adobe Muse, but please know the team is listening!

  • Problem in create Hyperlink

    Hi All,
    I create hyperlink by finding http and www in my active document.                //Works well
    But the problem is, if the url or websites contents coming twice or above then I found error   //not able to create hyperlink source with the same name
    i.e., www.gmail.com (comes 2 or more time in the document, then the below code is not working fine)
    var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
    app.findGrepPreferences = app.changeGrepPreferences = null;
    //Find http and www
    app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = "(?i)(http|www)\\S+[\\l\\u|\\d]"
    var myFound1 = myDoc.findGrep();
    count = 0
    for(k=0; k<myFound1.length; k++)
        var myFind = myFound1[k];

    Please find the screenshot for your more references.
    Please help to find the solution.
    Thanks in advance

    I solved this problem by adding an incrementing number in round brackets if a hyperlink name is already taken.
    Another (simpler) solution is to put "add hyperlink" line into try-catch block, but in this case you'll have a default name if the error occurs.
    Here's the function:
    function MakeHyperlink(text, url) {
        if (url.match(/https?:\/\//) == null) {
            url = "http://" + url;
        url = url.replace(/\.$/, "");
        var name = text.contents;
        var oriName = name;
        if (doc.hyperlinks.itemByName(name) != null) {
            var increment = 1;
            while (doc.hyperlinks.itemByName(name) != null) {
                name = oriName + " (" + increment++ + ")";
        try {
            var dest = doc.hyperlinkURLDestinations.itemByName(name);
            if (!dest.isValid) {
                dest = doc.hyperlinkURLDestinations.add(url , {hidden: true});
            var source = doc.hyperlinkTextSources.add(text);
            var hyperlink = doc.hyperlinks.add(source, dest, {highlight: HyperlinkAppearanceHighlight.NONE, visible: false});
            try {
                hyperlink.name = name;
            catch(err) {
                //$.writeln(err.message + ", line: " + err.line);
            if (hyperlink.isValid) {
                hypCount++;
                if (set.tempColors) source.sourceText.fillColor = swatchOK;
                if (set.charStyle) source.appliedCharacterStyle = charStyle;
        catch(err) {
            errorsCount++;
            var swatchProblem = MakeSwatch("===== PROBLEM =====", {
                model : ColorModel.PROCESS,
                space : ColorSpace.RGB,
                colorValue : [255, 0, 0]
            text.fillColor = swatchProblem;
            //$.writeln("Error message: " + err.message + ", Line: " + err.line + ", URL: " + url);
            arr.push("Error message: " + err.message + ", Line: " + err.line + ", URL: " + url);

  • Garbled text when creating hyperlinks

    I have a user who is creating hyperlinks in the Table of Contents of a 500 page PDF to pages within the PDF. After 10-15 hyperlinks, she gets strange characters and garbled text on some of the pages. If she saves and closes the document and reopens, she can go back to working but it will reoccur soon again. She is using Acrobat 9 Professional on Windows 7 Enterprise. She has the latest updates for Acrobat. Any thoughts?
    thanks

    Most of the document was converted from Microsoft Excel 2007 documents. The Table of Contents was converted from Microsoft Word 2007 document.

  • Robohelp 11 - Creating hyperlinks within a topic

    Hi community,
    Just a quick question, tried to figure it out but can't seem to see how.
    I'd like to create hyperlinks in a specific topic that the user will be able to click on and it will jump the user to a specific place in the same topic (Ex: in section 2.1, in the middle of some explanation, refer to the heading of section 2.2).
    I looked it up, but can only seem to be able to configure hyperlinks to other topics or something outside of RoboHelp.
    Could someone help me with that ?
    Tks in advance

    You first need to create a bookmark in the topic you want to jump to. Place your text cursor at the jump location (don't select any text) and select Insert > Bookmark. Enter a name without spaces. On the topic you want to jump from, create a hyperlink like you are used to. Instead of choosing the topic, choose the topic with the text #bookmarkname attached. (Bookmarkname will be the text you inserted on creating a bookmark.)
    Kind regards,
    Willam

  • Outside ads create hyperlinks in stories I'm reading

    Hello, I've been noticing lately that what seems to be outside ad companies are creating hyperlink in news stories I'm reading. This isn't happening when I use Internet Explorer.
    I checked with the editor of a site I visit (psmag.com) and he says they aren't doing it on their end, and they can't see the problem that I'm talking about. But, from their front page, in four stories there was a word that was larger font than the rest of the words, and it was a hyperlink to outside ads. This has been happening over and over for the last 2 or 3 weeks on various sites. What is going on?

    Do these links have double underlines? If so, it could be textsrv doing that. You can block textsrv.com with Adblock Plus by adding this to the Custom Filters Ad blocking rules: ||textsrv.com/*
    If that is not it, maybe you have some malware installed. Try the software listed here:
