Creating Link of .pdf file

I am unable to create "filename.pdf" link using property
inspector. How can I do it?

What are the tips and steps to do it in Dreamweaver 8? Or How

Thanks

Did you put the pdf to the server?

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.

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  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.

How do I create an interactive PDF file with variable data

We would like to basically do a 'mail merge' of our list of customers with an interactive PDF file (including videos, menus, etc - not just form fill out and web links) to create a single PDF file that contains multiple mail pieces ... one for each customer ... with each mail piece being customized for that customer. Customizations would include different greetings (Dear Bob, Dear Dana, etc), as well as different charts based on data unique to the customer, different photographs, etc.
I've seen that InDesign and Acrobat Professional can be used to create an interactive PDF (such as from http://tv.adobe.com/watch/ask-the-adobe-ones/14-calling-rufus-about-interactive-pdf-making). However I don't understand how I can insert data from a database, csv file, excel file etc into the PDF file so that each page, or each set of pages, within the PDF can be customized.
Can anyone point me to a tool to use for this?
Thanks,
Bob Kendall

For that kind of volume and unattended operation, you want InDesign Server – which is the server/high volume edition of INDD.

Linking to PDF files in HTMLResources.zip file with Windows 8.1 Viewer

I have followed the instructions from 'DPS Tips' regarding creating a HTML Resources folder and compressing the PDF files etc... It works on IOS Viewer but it doesn't work on Windows 8.1 Viewer.
Is linking to PDF files in HTMLResources.zip file support for Windows Viewer?
Thanks

Hi Bob,
I do not understand, you're telling me that if I set my default browser to Chrome on Windows 8.1, the Viewer works with, or does the Indesign Folio Preview works?

How to remove source link in PDF file

Hello,
I want to create pdf files of all newsletters our organization has sent out for the past year. I took a template from the software we use for sending out our newsletters. I saved this template as an htm file on my desktop. Then I used acrobat pro to create a new pdf file from a web page. It comes out perfectly, all links are working, no problems there. But on the left top of the document there is a link to where that file is stored on my pc. It looks like this:
file:///C|/Documents%20and%20Settings/..........
I hope somebody can tell me how I remove that link from there. I've been struggling with it for some time now.
Kind regards,
Lucas

In the dialog of 'Create PDF from Web Page'you can change the settings.

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

Linking a PDF file to Word Press

Hello,
I really need some support in how to link a pdf file
(Acrobat.com) that I've already created to my blogsite in Word
Press. Can anybody PLEASE guide me in understanding the steps? I've
already downloaded the file and saved it on my computer. Now I'm
trying to copy the HTML code or access the URL, but neither seems
to work when I click on buttons. What am I supposed to do?
Any help and support would be appreciated!
Thanks so much -
Dorit

Hello Dorit,
Thank you for your post. I'll be glad to try to help you with
sharing a .pdf file via your blog.
Start at Acrobat.com and choose My Files. Next, click the
file you want to embed in your blog. On the right side of the page,
choose Copy Embed Code. The necessary HTML code to embed the
preview is
automatically copied onto the clipboard. I can understand
that this would be confusing as there is no indication after you
click the buttons that anything happened... but the code is now on
your clipboard. Open the HTML file - your WordPress blog - and
paste (CTRL+V on Windows machines) the code into the file.
Hope this helps! Please let me know if you run into any
trouble with this process.
Kind Regards,
Michelle
