How to create a link to a dropbox file in an InDesign document?

I have an InDesign document where I have successfully inserted links to a homepage, but I would also link a file which I keep in my Dropbox. I.e. when people click on the icon/text in the InDesign document, I would like them to be taken to the download page in Dropbox.
Simply marking the text and >add new hyperlink and copying the download link into the appropriate field hasn't worked so far.
Thanks a lot for any help!
Best,
Marvis

I just typed my email address in InDesign, and chose Create Hyperlink from the Hyperlink panel menu. Chose Email Address as the type. Added a Subject Line. It shows the email link in the hyperlink list.
Exported the same way. Works fine in Acrobat. Clicking launches my email application:

    Hey,
    If you are using Portal (not Framework), the below tag will do the trick
    <wcdc:userProfile id="profileUserLink" immediate="false" text="#{security.userDisplayName}" shortDesc="#{security.userDisplayName}"  xmlns:wcdc="http://xmlns.oracle.com/webcenter/spaces/taglib"/>

  • How to create a link for download a file in text format

    Hi expect,
    I want to create a link when I link that link a text file should get download which i'm specified in jsp page. I tried by using hyper link it didn't get downloaded just it opened as it is. How can I resolve the problem.

    Swati.S wrote:
    in href provide another jsp name or servlet and pass filename as request parameter to this jsp or servlet. In called jsp or servlet set content type to application/forcedownload.Yes, that works (usually), but, IMHO, is nothing but a hack that you shouldn't use (and I could care less how often it is currently used in varying hacked scripts, such as this bogus force-download PHP script I've seen). That is an invalid MIME type (or at least unofficial/non-standard mime tye that most browsers will have no association for), so, since the browser doesn't know what to do with it, it'll ask the user what to do. And even that is not 100% certain. All I need do is create a mime-type to application association for that MIME type and, guess what, it doesn't work again (at least not the way you intended).
    The server should not be concerned with what the client does with the file linked to.

  • Is it possible to link and update external files in a Indesign document when sharing the Indesign file in Creative Cloud with multiple users?

    I am new to Creative Cloud, but have been using Adobe software for many years.
    Now we are considering sharing an Indesign file with my project group using CC.
    The Indesign file contains links to external files (one Illustrator and multiple .txt files); and we export the approved version to an Hi-Res PDF.
    These .txt files are currently hosted on our internal server but have not been linked directly: we first copy them over to local desktop and update the links in Indesign before creating a new PDF. 
    Since these file can be update by different people we would like to keep them outside the Indesign and Illustrator files.
    Is it still possible with CC to link directly to the files on our server in Indesign and see if there have been updated?
    Or can they also be stored in the CC cloud? Or is there another method?
    Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions
    Ronald

    This will work if you all use the file syncing of the Creative Cloud desktop application and then you use the Collaborate option for the folder containing all the files. Then it will work on each of your desktops.
    Links to files will not work in the browser when viewing the InDesign document from https://creative.adobe.com/files.

  • How to create a link (path) from a file.

    Hello,
    I'm sending an email out and would like to tell the team where a graphic file (illustrator file) is located. I've seen in other emails where it comes in a form of a link (i.e.,  file://localhost/Volumes/creative/Active/VISUAL/.....20ENDCAP%20-%20JULY-AUG%2012.ai); click on this link and takes one directly to the graphic file. I've tried control clicking on the file (MAC platform) and didn't see anything remote indicating a link.
    Does anyone has insight to this question?
    Thanks!
    Suta

    1. Read the file using OPEN DATASET and read and fill up the segment info and fill the EDIDC header data
    and then call function

  • 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 Create a Link to a Discoverer Workbook in Apps11i?-[solved]

    I tried to create a link to a disco workbook in apps 11i using metalink document 278095.1. It seems to be working ok for discoverer which is installed on the same machine as the apps11i is on(because when I clicked on the link which I have created in apps11i, I see a default disco4i welcome page which got installed out of the box with apps11i). But we are using discoverer version 10g which is on a different server. Does anyone has ideas on how to create a link for a disco workbook which is on a different server other than apps11i.
    Discoverer version is 10g
    Apps version is 11.5.10.2
    Thanks in advance

    hi Rod,
    I did as you said and it seems to be connecting to the right server. But I have one more problem. In metalink document it says I have to enter the following in the Parameters text field of Function form in apps:
    workbook=<(workbook identifier from step2) &PARAMETERS=param_parameter name One~Parameter One Value*param_parameter name Two~Parameter Two Value*
    But I dont understand what should I have in place of param_parameter name One~Parameter One Value. Is it the name of the parameter given in discoverer, if so can you give me an example of how to write it. Because when I typed the name of the parameter like &PARAMETERS=Client Id, where client Id is the name of the parameter, it is giving me the following error
    ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error
    Thanks for your help

  • How To:  Create a link to gatewayed content (e.g. in email)

    I apologize if this is too basic of a question but I can't find any results after looking for several hours.
    I would like to generate a URL in an email that points to the portal and a specific portlet in the portal. The portlet has limited access rights so the URL should cause the portal to go through the login page and then redirect to the portlet. Can anyone point me to the documentation that describes this or give me an example?
    Thanks in advance!
    Mike

    Using the PTARGS might also solve another difficulty I've encountered passing (dynamic) querystring parms to portlets through the gateway. Your example seems to work great for portlets, but now trying to access a Community page containing a portlet to retain branding elements.
    For portal pages, should the ObjectID be the pageID (i.e PageID=0 for the default page) or is the ObjectID for a community page some other value (where in PlumDB is this stored) ? I changed the ClassIDView to 514 which should indicate a Community Page but it's still not loading my page. Adding to my confusion, the PTCOMMPAGES table stores the PageID as a negative value.
    Here's my example:
    http://portalserver/portal/server.pt/gateway/PTARGS_0_0_0_201_0_514/http%3B/portletserver/ApplicationName/default.aspx?querystring=value
    Any thoughts?
    re: How To: Create a link to gatewayed content (e.g. in email) Posted by Mike Beniston 5/5/05 9:45:40 AM It turned out that I was pretty close.
    If anyone else is interested, here is one way that works.
    The PTARGS are _0_userid(leave at 0)_objectid(of portlet)_communityID(if any)_0_ClassIDView(43 = view for portlet)
    "http://portalserver/portal/server.pt/gateway/PTARGS_0_0_348_208_0_43/http://portletserver/ApplicationName/pagename?querystring arguments.

  • How to create a linked server to SQL in Oracle?

    I am able to create a linked server to Oracle in SQL.. But I do not know the steps to create a linked server too SQL in Oracle.
    How to create a linked server to SQL in Oracle? After creating the linked server to SQL, I would like to create triggers in Oracle DB to insert records into SQL DB.

    There are 2 products in Oracle you can use to link to a MS SQl Server. The first one is for free and it is called Database Gateway for ODBC. With a suitable 3rd party ODBC driver you can connect to any foreign database. The second gateway is our commercial gateway and it is called Oracle Database Gateway for MS SQL Server. It is designed for MS SQl Server connections and more powerful then Dg4ODBC. It know how to map a lot of Oracle functions to SQL Server equivalents and you can also use it to directly call SQL Server procedures or functions. This dedicated SQL server gateway is also able to participate in distributed transactions.
    But again, this is a commercial gateway and you have to purchase a license for that second gateway, the Database Gateway for MS SQl Server.
