How can i create a hyperlink annotation on a pdf file using preview? the tool is removed from the toolbar

It seems that the tool to create an hyperlink on a pdf file is removed from the toolbar!

In order to initiate printing by clicking a button, the button has to have either an "execute menu item" type action or use the "print" JavaScript method. As you guessed, the former won't work since there are no menu items to execute, and the latter can only work if the particular PDF viewer you're using supports it. I'm not aware of any that do on iOS.
The button doesn't appear because you're probably opening it in the default PDF viewer, which doesn't support forms at all. If you were to open the form in Adobe Reader, you'd see the button but it wouldn't work.

In preview how can i create an hyperlink annotation

I've upgradetd to mountain lion and i'd like to create a Link annotation on my PDF using Preview, but i cannot find the right tool
The Help says:
Click Annotate in the toolbar, if you don’t see the annotations bar.
Click Link in the annotations bar.
but i cannot find the "link" tools anymore.
Any hint?
Thanks

Preview used to be such a useful application, why has Apple removed so many functions?
1. Can't create a white box to white out an area - no way to remove the shadow.
2. "Save as" is back in Mountain Lion version but hidden behind the alt key
3. There is no hand function, so only possible to move the image around awkwardly via the scroll bars, or by drawing lines (sic)
4. Can't insert hyperlink text
5. Worst of all for me, it is no longer possible to "print selected pages". That was how one could:
Select exactly the pp one wanted to print - given that page numbering in pdf documents is often quite different from that in the view.
Create new pdf documents by selecting various images or pages and then saving them as a new pdf document in the Print menu
Create new pdf documents of just the pages one wanted, again by saving those selected in the Print dialogue.
Why has Apple wrecked such a useful application?

How can I create a separate folder in ios for my pdf files?

Hi Artistdeet,
For this you have to follow certain steps-
1. Tap on Document tab from left pane of Adobe Reader.
2. Tap on 'Edit' button placed at right side of top toolbar.
3. Tap on "folder icon with plus sign", it will ask you to enter the folder name.Enter desired folder name by which you want to create the folder.
Hope this will solve your problem.
Thanks

How can I create an icon for "New Tab" (not "new window") on the toolbar?

I want to have an icon for New Tab on the toolbar. I cannot find such icon on the Customize option.
Is this possible?
BTW I tried to check options-->tabs-->open new windows in a new tab instead, but this does not help and when clicking the "new Window" icon on the toolbar, indeed a new window - and not a new tab - opens.
Thanks.

You can open the Customize window and drag the New Tab (+) button form the tab bar on another toolbar. It will become a regular New Tab toolbar button.
Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"

Can you create an electronic signature in a PDF file using Adobe Reader 9

Hello all:
I am filling out an application that I opened using Adobe Reader 9.
It is a PDF document, and at the very bottom there is a field which is meant for my signature..
Is there away to sign this electronically?
Do I need to scan my signature and place it that field?
Can I sign with a pen tool with in Adobe Reader 9?
Or do I need to print, sign the document, scan my document, and then import as a completely different PDF file?
Thanks in advance!!

That depends.
Are they asking you to put a copy of your actual signature on there or are they asking for a "digital signature"?
They are different things.

How can I get a monthly subscription for combining PDF files

How can I get a monthly subscription for combining PDF files. I have been able to subscribe in the past, but now all I see is annual subscription. I do not need an annual subscription because I do not use it often enough.

Hi paige1186,
The Adobe PDF Pack subscription, which allows you to combine PDF, is only available at an annual rate of $89.99. We do offer month-to-month subscriptions of Acrobat Pro and Standard, but I think you'd actually come out ahead with the annual PDF Pack subscription, if you planned on combining files more than 3-4 times throughout the year.
Best,

How can I enable Safari's ability to display pdf files?

Hi there,
In Safari 4.0.3 (MacBook Pro) pdf links open as a dark grey block. That is, instead of the intended text, I see just dark gray.
Control-click allows me to save the file to the desktop in which case Preview can open them with no problem.

HI,
If you have Adobe Acrobat Reader, launch Adobe Reader. From the Menu Bar, click Adobe Reader/Preferences. Select the Internet category...the top option is the one you want. Uncheck the box to make sure Adobe doesn't keep making itself the default reader.
You might also need to open /Library/Internet Plug-Ins and delete Adobe's PDF viewer plug-in.

How Can I Create a Print Button on a PDF Using Acrobat Pro That Will Also Work on iOS?

I created a Print Button on a PDF document using Adobe Acrobat Pro on my Mac. The Print button works perfectly on different browsers on my Mac and on Windows (running under Parallels Desktop) as well.
When I open the document on my iPad the Print button doesn't even appear. I am guessing that this is a Flash issue but it may be more related to the fact the the action for the button is to access the Print menu item, which doesn't exist under iOS.
Is there any way to create a Print button using Acrobat Pro that will work on a Mac and Windows but also on iOS?

In order to initiate printing by clicking a button, the button has to have either an "execute menu item" type action or use the "print" JavaScript method. As you guessed, the former won't work since there are no menu items to execute, and the latter can only work if the particular PDF viewer you're using supports it.

How do you create a link to download a PDF file?

I'd like to create links so that when clicked, a PDF file associated with the link will automatically be downloaded. I've created a folder where I've stored all of the PDF files, but where on my web host do I put the folder--is it part of the published iWeb folder or should it be kept separate? (I'm using a 3rd party web host, Lunarpages.com)
Second, to create the links, I've written "Download Page" on for each link, highlighted the words, then enabled it as a hyperlink with the inspector. However, this changes "Download Page" to the name of the PDF file. How can I keep the words "Download Page" without changing it to the name of the file? Also, is this the correct way to have a PDF file automatically downloaded when "Download Page" is clicked?

Hi there,
While I do not use iWeb, I do use PDF files on my website.
I first create a new folder to hold my PDF files and upload this to my website. When I create and upload PDF files I will upload to this folder. When someone wants to view this files, all they need to do is click on the link I created. After clicking on link, if the user is on a PC, Acrobat Reader is automatically used to view the file or if they are on a Mac, Preview is usually the default viewer (if the they are using Safari, it will simply open in Safari). Just having the extension on yourfile.pdf will cause this and you will not need to do anything else on your end.
FOR EXAMPLE: Download Sample PDF - try it on different browsers and PC's
As far as 'download page', it automatically starts as soon as you click on link. If you are talking about 'saving' the user will always have that option on their end...

You can also "share" via iCloud.
The recipient can view it (and edit it, unless you specify read only) using a modern browser on a Mac or PC. The recipient does not need to have an iCloud account..
