How do I create internal links in a PDF eBook?

Hi there, any help with this is GREATLY appreciated. I have the latest version of Adobe, but when I try to create internal links, there doesn't seem to be any way to do it. Doing a Net search I saw that in previous versions of Adobe, that is, 6, there WAS the ability to create internal links (Tools => Advanced Editing => Link Tool). Now there does NOT seem to be the same facility, which is incredibly frustrating, like Adobe went backwards.
I am creating PDF's from Word, and by internal links I *don't* mean hyperlinks - those are created automatically - but a link in the Index, for eg, so a person can click on a Chapter heading on page 4, for eg and be taken immediately to page 50, for eg.
Going slowly nuts here as there seems to be NO readily-available advice as to how to do this.
THANKS.

Ok, "Adobe" is the company.
The application is?
Adobe Reader - if yes, then tools such as the Link tool are not available.
Acrobat (Standard/Pro) - if yes, then the Link tool is available.
If using Acrobat X then click "Tools" (at the right) > expand the "Content" panel > select "Link"
If using Acrobat 9 or earlier then use Tools > Advanced Editing > Link tool.
Be well...

    How do you create a link to a pdf in Muse? Thought it was going to show that with Katie's menu and can't find in any of the tutorials.

    The steps would be :
    - Add files from file menu > select pdf > add to site
    - Select the content (rectangle,text etc) and click on hyperlink dropdown > it should show you the added files list
    - Select the file you want to link

  • How can I create a link to a pdf file and show it in the same webpage or in a new tab

    It is no problem to create a link. But the formats are limited and  - unbelievable -  the pdf format is not supported??!
    Where are the parameter (_blank or _self) to show it for example in the same webpage or in a new tab??!

    PDF is media.  It is not a web document.  Your end users must have plug-ins and helper apps installed on their device to see PDFs in browsers.  Depending on their settings, the PDF file may or may not launch in the browser window.  On my system, PDF files download and launch inside Acrobat Professional; not my browser.
    The safest approach is to provide a screenshot on your page with a direct link to the PDF file so people can handle it as they wish.  See example:  http://www.adobe.com/manufacturing/3dpdfsamples/3dsolutions/

  • How do I create a link from a pdf file to post on my website and Facebook?

    I have created a pdf file from a document.  Now I want to post a link to the pdf document on my website and on Facebook.  In my Adobe Reader XI there is a tab that says "Create Link", but when I click onto it, it just takes me back to the original file, where it is saved on my computer,  I am not real techy.  If anyone can explain this step by strep, I would really appreciate it. 
    Thank you.

    Reader will not be involved.
    First, you need to upload the pdf to your website. Once you upload the file, you need to add a link to it from a page on your website and Facebook.

  • How to create internal links with pages...?

    I'm thinking of taking all my class notes with the computer and I wanted to know if Pages can create internal links (to other documents, or to another point in the same document). Or is there a better application to do this?

    Although I really haven't used it, this seems to be a very cool feature.
    Call up Pages Help and search for "link". You will be rewarded with several hits, one of which is 'Creating a hyperlink to a bookmarked location in a document' with step-by-step guidance on using the Inspector for hyperlinks and bookmarks.

  • How do I create a link to the middle of a page with Inherit Zoom?

    I keep going around and around on this.  I am using Adobe Acrobat XI Pro and I'm trying to create an internal link in the PDF to go to the middle of the page somewhere else in the same document.  I don't want to change the user's zoom level.
    I can create a bookmark that does this by adding tags and having the bookmarks created from those tags (which is a ludicrious process, but at least a way).  But links don't seem to attach to bookmarks or tags.
    I can create a link that does exactly this by creating a document in MS Word, using styles and links to those styles and then saving it as a PDF.  So I know the PDF itself can do this, I just can't figure out how to do it through Adobe.
    Is there any way to create a link to a tag or to a bookmark?  Setting a link to Page View always changes the zoom level, and then if I change the zoom back to Inherit Zoom the link just goes to the top of the page.
    Any ideas?
    Thank you,
       Chris

    Hrm, I feel like I'm just missing something obvious.  Here are the exact steps I'm taking:
    Have zoom level up high enough so you're only seeing part of a page.
    Click "Add or Edit Link"
    Draw a box around the text.
    Link Appearance:
    Link Type: Invisible Rectangle
    Highlight Style: Invert
    Link Action: Go to a page view
    Click "Next"
    Scroll down so I'm looking at the middle of the next page.
    Click "Set Link".
    Right-click on the link-box and click "Properties..."
    Click "Actions" tab and then "Edit" and change the Zoom to "Inherit Zoom".  "OK" back to the page.
    Change zoom level, use the hand icon and click on the link.
    I'm taken to the top of the correct page and my zoom level doesn't change.  I am not taken to the middle of that page, though.
    Do you experience different behaviour?

  • How can I create a link from a CHM file to a webhelp file?

    How can I create a link from a CHM file to a webhelp file?
    The CHM output (accreditation.chm) is stored in a parent directory, and the webhelp output (index.htm) is stored in a child directory.

    Open the usual Link dialog and enter the relative path from where the CHM will be installed to where the webhelp will be installed.

  • How to add an internal link on pages 5.0.1?

    Could anyone please tell me how to add an internal link on pages 5.0.1.
    I am making FAQ list, and I would like to make the first page of the document as a list of questions and when a user click on each question, it jumps to the answer (in the same document).
    I found "Add link" tool but it allows you to jump URL or email only.
    I was able to  set the list of questions as an index page of "Table of contents" tool and jump to a question page by clicking each page number, however, it fails when I put a question in a table (I would like to place each question and answer in tables for a visual purpose).
    It seems a jump by using "Table of contents" become invalid when the contents are placed in a chart.  WHy?
    Are there any way to solve this problem?
    any advise will be appreciated.

    Bookmarks have been removed from Pages 5 along with 90+ other features.

  • How could I create a "Linked Server" link from SQL Server 2008R2 64-Bit to Oracle Database 11.2 64-Bit?

    How could I create a "Linked Server" link from SQL Server 2008R2 64-Bit to Oracle Database 11.2 64-Bit?
    Let's say the SQL Server and Oracle Database are in the same Company Internet Network.
    I have the code, but I do not know how to use it. Such as what is System DSN Name? Where could I get it. What does it look like?
    Do I need to install any Oracle Client Software in order to link from SQL Server to Oracle? Or SQL Server has the built-in drivers installed already that I can directly create a Linked Server from SQL Server to Oracle?
    I need to know details. Thanks.
    USE master
    go
    EXEC sp_addlinkedserver
         @server  = '{Linked Server Name}'
        ,@srvproduct = '{System DSN Name}'
        ,@provider  = 'MSDASQL'

        ,@rmtpassword = '{Oracle User Password}'

    You need an OLE DB provider for Oracle. There is one that ships with Windows, but it only supports very old versions of Oracle. Oracle has an OLE DB provider that you can use. I don't know if it's part of Oracle Client or how it is bundled.
    You should not use MSDASQL or any DSN.
