Find hyperlinks in pdf's

How can I find hyperlinks in pdf's? We have an external service which checks hyperlinks in our pdf's but does not tell you the location of them, so I know I may have an invalid link but can't find it. Any help at all would be appreciated

Select the link tool and then the links should become visible. Of course if they're links that Acrobat makes automatically because it finds a web address you'll have to do a search for www. or http:

For instance, the forms.conf file:
# Virtual path mapping for Forms Java jar and class files (codebase)
AliasMatch ^/forms/java/(..*) "D:\Oradev/forms/java/$1"
# Virtual path for JInitiator downloadable executable and download page
AliasMatch ^/forms/jinitiator/(..*) "D:\Oradev/jinit/$1"
# Virtual path for runform.htm (used to run a form for testing purposes)
AliasMatch ^/forms/html/(..*) "d:\oradev/tools/web/html/$1"
# Virtual Path for icons
AliasMatch ^/forms/icons/(..*) "d:\icons/$1"
...you can move your files in one of the existing physical directories - e.g: d:/icons - and call them with the following:
Web.show_Document('/forms/icons/document.pdf','_blank');But you can also add your own virtual/physical directory:
# Virtual Path for documents
AliasMatch ^/forms/documents/(..*) "d:\documents/$1"
...with the following code:
Web.show_Document('/forms/documents/document.pdf','_blank');Francois

Help me how to read the Hyperlinks from the PDF file using java ...
Thanks in advance,

Instead of cross-posting unformatted code you could have taken a look at the API, because there you might have come across a method named getLinks...Even though it's not documented, I really suspect that it will return the Hyperlinks on a given page.

Hyperlink in PDF to relative file does not work

I am creating PDFs from Java and the PDF contains a link to a relative file which is distributed along with the PDF. When the link is clicked, the file is opened with the OS default program (written by us). At least that is how it is supposed to work.
How should links to relative files be formatted?

Thanks for the reply Daterson! This could be a nice new feature for Adobe Reader, but our reports are cross format, so this solution should work in HTML as much as it does in PDF.
I think this problem stems from the fact that launching a different application from a hyperlink in PDF is neither secure, nor cross platform. Therefore, I think the support for such an action doesn't exist in PDF, but also in other formats, which we would also like to support.
If anyone comes across a clever idea or technique for this problem, I would love to hear it!

Insert hyperlinks in pdf-documents

Since Mavericks you can´t insert hyperlinks in pdf-documents. I miss this option in the preview. Are there any other possibilities?
(I have MS Office for apple, therefore the links get lost, if I convert it to pdf).

No one here can guess what "Apple wants." This is just an end user forum. There are open source alternatives to Pages and Office you may want to research: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6941
http://www.apple.com/feedback is where you can put your two cents if you so desire to get Apple to consider them.

Hyperlinks in PDF fail when security turned on Acrobat Pro 6

The InDesign CS created buttons I exported to PDF stop working when I apply security to not permit changes to document. The other bookmark type hyperlinks work. The external hyperlinks work. Just not the button types.
Using Acrobat 6, OS X 10.4.11, Power PC G4.
Can anyone help?

Hyperlinks in PDF files

We are having problems with hyperlinks in PDF files.
When clicking on a link in a PDF file the following message appears:
"The file and its viewer application are set to be launched by this PDF file. The file may contain programs, macros, or viruses that could potentially harm your computer. Only open the file if you are sure it is safe. If this file was placed by a trusted person or program, you can click Open to view the file."
There is a box that says "Do not show this message again", but selecing this box does not stop this message from appearing next time.
Is there any way to disable this notification??

Hi Jakob,
BlackPlum suggets: "Thankfully, I noticed that in the Export... dialog box, (from the File Menu), you can select "Current Sheet" in the Layout field (this field defaults to "All Sheets", it's easy to miss). So select Current Sheet, and voila, you now have a pdf with multiple pages (and clickable hyperlinks!)."
Though my Export To ... PDF does not have such an option.
Hope a solution will come soon.
Numbers 3.1 with a very long table (will not fit on one page when printing) and two sheets.
B2 contains an active hyperlink.
B32 contains an active hyperlink.
Menu > File > Print >
And on the right,
Now click on Print...
Now click on PDF (bottom left)
Save as PDF
Here is the PDF opened in Preview (zoomed out to make a smaller screen shot)
Two pages .
Both of those hyperlinks are active.
Clicking on this one:
takes me to
apple.com/sitemap.
(Proof coming in my next reply. Having trouble with posting the screen shot.)

Ian.

Hyperlinks to pdf files not working when project is exported out as SWF and uploaded to server

hI all
I'm using CS5 and i have hyperlinks to pdf files in my indesign project. However when i export to SWF, although the links work locally, they do not work when i upload all the relevant folders and files and test it from a server the links to the pdfs can not be found, the error messages indicates its looking for the files on my hard drive. I have also noticed that if i copy all the relevant folders and files and exported swf to a different directory and then launch swf from there the links do not work there either.
Other than seperately uploading each pdf indvidually on to the server and then creating a hyperlink to it from the local indesign project i don't know what else to do.
Any advice much appreciated.

I have your same problem, but didn't consider uploading the PDFs and then linking to them. I'm willing to try it. Let me know if you ever found a better way, ok?
Thanks.

AcroPDF in VB6 - Find text in PDF and print that page.

Okay, so I'm certain that this question has been asked and answered a hundred times, but for some reason my googling skills are seriously failing me today...
I have a legacy application built in VB6 that generates PDF documents of a particular form letter. Each PDF contains all of the form letters that were printed on that particular day. I actually have it all working rather decently, but something came up a little while ago that set me on a new programming obsession. I want to enable the following functionality from my application:
The user provides a text string that should be unique among all pages of all PDF's (customer ID).
The application then finds the PDF that contains that text string and identifies which page number contains that text string.
Finally, send only that page to the printer.
Currently I can easily create, display and print the PDF from my application. While the creation of the document is done through a third-party reporting system, all display and printing functions are basically handled using AcroPDF.dll. Going through the available properties and methods for an AcroPDF object, I see that I can tell it to print only specified pages, which gives me the last part of my requirements, and I've got the user input part down pat. I'm just totally stumped at finding a solution for "step 2".
Any suggestions, ideas or comments would be greatly appreciated. I'm kinda tired of banging my head against a wall. Thank you for your time.

If you are only using Adobe Reader, then that feature isn't available.
If you have Adobe Acrobat, then you have a few options.

Where do I find the Adobe pdf 9.0 printer description file and how do I install it?

Where do I find the Adobe pdf 9.0 printer description file and how do I install it? Operating system is Windows 7 and I have Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 installed. Adobe Acrobat X Pro just updated to version 10.1.8

Hi. Thanks for the replyl
I'm in prepress, working mainly with Quark XPress for advertising files and with Word, Photoshop, everything, for many years. My older computer is the workhorse with Quark 6.5 and CS4 and OSX 10.4.11. Everything is set up for me to produce PDF x1a files by printing .ps files from Quark and Word, and InDesign.
My newer computer, OSX 10.9.4, must now be used to a greater extent. So I have Quark 9 and 10 and now Creative Suite for the Cloud. But I don't have any Adobe PDF printer which I select when I print .ps files and place into my Distiller Watched Folder. I by pass selecting the Adobe PDF printer in Word and just print straight to .ps. The .ps file just sits in the Watched Folder and no longer flows into Distiller, processed and out. Is this the way of the future? I just want a smooth, fast flow for PDF's. I want them to be PDF x1a compliant for hi-quality printing.
Thought you might help to give me info as to how one uses Distiller (or not) with the new operating system and latest programs. Can't seem to find any info as of yet by searching the Adobe FAQ's and the Internet in general.
Thanks alot.

Hyperlink in PDF changed

the Rev is adobe reader x 10.1.4,
in the company internal website,after I downloaded some PDF files ,the hyperlinks indise the files are all pointed to my PC disk, why not the website address like before?

the process was:
1.At the first times,I open the PDF files in the company websites online,
it was ok, what the hyperlink pointed was another website address which
located a PDF file.
2.After I saved some PDF file which I opened online to my local disk ,
someday, when I wanted to open a hyperlink from a PDF file online ,it can't
be realized ,like what I say at the beginning.
my question is :
why it changed,normally,the PDF embeded in the website can't be changed
with anything.
why did the hyperlink change,when I opened the PDF file ?

Hyperlinks to PDF files only work in Preview

I cannot get any of my hyperlinks to PDF files to work in my
ouput WebHelp file. The links work fine in Preview, but not in the
actual output. And the files have been added to the baggage folder,
and can be seen in the Baggage folder. Any help would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi Retso
Sorry for not replying earlier. I've been conducting a
RoboHelp HTML class all day.
Are you using RoboHelp HTML 6? If so, there is a new option
labeled "Mark of the web" that could be nailing you. When you
generate your WebHelp by double-clicking the layout, see if this
option is enabled. If so, disable it and your PDF links should
begin working. Note, however, that by DE-selecting this option, you
could start seeing the Yellow Information bar as Internet Explorer
ever so helpfully deems this as a security threat and blocks your
WebHelp until you click it and allow the content to be shown.
Cheers... Rick

How do I get working hyperlinks in PDF files?

Hyperlinking procedures as laid down by Pages 09 work. Conversion fromPages format to PDF format work - in principle. But when one clicks on created hyperlink in PDF file, nothing happens. So, no one outside of the working Pages community can go further. Suggestions? Thanks.

Pages '09 ≠ Pages 5.01.
You have the bugs and reduced features of Pages 5, the version you recently installed.
Pages '09 should be in your Applications/iWork folder.
Use that instead.

Creating hyperlinks to pdf docs on a CD. Anyone experienced in doing this?

Need to create hyperlinks to pdf documents in a CD. The pdf docs were created using an older version of Adobe and I am trying to follow a YOuTube instructing me how to create hyperlinks in the Table of Contents on the CD. The instructions on the YoTube do not match what is in the document for creating a hyperlink. Do I need to send and save all documents as NEW adobe pdf.s??? Thanks!!!
