How to create hyperlink in PDF?

how do i create a live link in a pdf using Acrobat XI Pro?

Hi Steve,
I figured this out a couple of hours ago...however, the link does not appear with the usual underlined bright blue text, it appears with a blue rectangular box around the text, or invisible, which doesn't let the reader know that it is actually a link.
Can you tell me how to create the "old fashioned" typical link that we are all used to seeing in bright blue and underlined?
Thank you for your response
Norma

  • 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!!!

    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.

  • How to create an interactive pdf, hyperlinking text to a video on a usb drive?

    Creating an interactive pdf in InDesign CS6, hyperlinking text to a video.  Both pdf and video placed on a usb thumbdrive.  When clicking link on Mac a warning box came up, but after clicking Allow the video played fine.  On PC the warning box also came up but clicking Allow did nothing

    You'll need to use startDrag and stopDrag  in order to be able to move an object (the slider handle).  You will need to specify a rectangle that has 0 height for the drag limits.  The width of that rectangle will define the maximum value of the scroll (which will be the maximum value of your scale.
    Assuming you will have a linear scale for values along the drag line, the math is fairly easy to manage.  The x property of the handle at the minimum slider position should be 0.  You use the ratio of the current x position of the slider handle to the full width to determine what value to assign ( ex: ratio = handle.x / rectangleWidth).  So if the minimum value is 1K and the maximum value in 10K, you essentially have 9K represented by the length of the line, so the value provided by the slider position at any point along that line would be 1K + (ratio * 9K)
    You can use a MOUSE_MOVE event listener that you assign when the slider's MOUSE_DOWN event occurs to update the textfield as the slider is moved.  You can remove the MOUSE_MOVE listener when the slider's MOUSE_UP event occurs.
    So, in summary, you need to look into the startDrag and stopDrag methods, which will be inititiated using MOUSE_DOWN and MOUSE_UP events, respectively.  The MOUSE_DOWN event will create a MOUSE_MOVE listener that you will use to have a function continually update the textfield value displayed, while the MOUSE_UP event will have that MOUSE_MOVE listener removed.  The ratio of the x property of the slider to the total slideable distance will be used to determine the current value that the MOUSE_MOVE event handler assigns to the textfield display.

  • How to make hyperlinks in PDF doc open in a seperate PDF window?

    I created a "Main" PDF document and have various attachments in it including PDF. I created them with Insert, Hyperlink.  That works, however, if I have the main document open in PDF, and I click on one of the hyperlinks to open a PDF document, the main document is closed and the only window remaining open is that of the hyperlink I've accessed.
    I want to change this to have the PDF hyperlink within main document  open in its on window ...can this be done?

    Thanks for the reply, but I have Adobe Reader 9 Pro. Will it still not 
    work ?

Once user click on that hyperlink it should ask me to "Check-Out & Open' pdf file directly from sharePoint document library then it should automatically gets opened into 'Adobe Acrobat' where user will do some annotation/ comments in that pdf file & again 'Check-In' back his changes to SharePoint Document library.

    ...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:

  • How to create Hyperlink dynamically

    Hi All,
    In my application , iam using one table , one of the field in that table is input field,
    when i entered data in that field at runtime, automatically that field value should become hyperlink, to show another table.
    is it possible to do, if possible please help me in this how to create field dynamically.
    regards,
    sush

    Hi Sushma,
    What I get is that at runtime, you will fill the input field with some value & wish to have the field changed to a link.
    Adding to what Armin has said, keep the input field as it is. Add a new column in the table, create the TableCellEditor of type LinkToURL (if it is a URL value) or LinkToAction (if some value).
    For LinkToURL type, set the 'reference' property to the same context value attribute as the input field.
    For LinkToAction type, set the onAction event where you call the appropriate code.
    You can also set the 'text' property as Link or bind it to this context value attribute as well.
    Hope this works.
    Kind Regards,

  • How to create a fillable PDF from InDesign?

    Hi everybody!
    Hope there's no thread about that... by the way. I have to create a fillable PDF from a InDesign file.
    I try to explain: with ID I'd create a file with text form, tables, images with text forms on them etc.... Now I have to export that in PDF and I want to transform the forms (sorry for the bad english, I'm italian) in fillable ones in PDF. How can I do it?
    Thanks to everyone!
    Dario

    Export the ID file as an Interactive PDF.
    Open the PDF form in Acrobat XI  and then:
    File > Save As Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools (includes for fill-in & save). . . Your users will be able to fill in the form and save it (assuming they have the later versions of Acrobat Reader).
    Make sure you keep a copy of your original PDF with a different file name as once you've created a Reader Enabled PDF Form you can't change it.

  • How to create multiple editable PDFs from data merged Indesign file

    Hi
    This is quite complicated but I'm hoping someone can help me and hoping I can explain it too!
    I am working on a project for a client. She wants to send 150 people a 6 page PDF with fields to complete and return to her.
    She has an Excel spreadsheet with some of the fields completed already so these will be Data Merged into InDesign CS6.
    The short version of the question goes like this:
    Can you automate the process so that once all the data is in the InDesign file, it can then create a PDF every 6 pages all in one go?
    For those still interested, the long version of the question goes like this:
    I have created 3 pages in InDesign with fields to complete and used the 'Data Merge' facility to add the Excel info.
    I have created 3 more pages with blank fields to fill in.
    Then I have made all fields editable using the 'Buttons and Forms' facility in the Interactive menu.
    Then I have created an interactive PDF. Then I have opened that PDF in Adobe Acrobat X Pro and saved it as 'Reader Extended PDF' and 'Enable Additional Features'
    I now have an Editable PDF with half the fields filled in and half blank to be filled in and this can be saved and returned.
    Now, this would be great if it was only one or two. But I need to create 150 different versions and this is just for the Pilot study. If all goes well, this will go to 5,000 people and I can't be creating 5,000 seperate PDFS!!
    At this stage, I am just focussing on the 150. So again, going back to the original question, is there a script that could be written either to break up the 1st PDF every 6 pages into 150 different PDFS? Is there even a way of extending that script to Save as Reader Extended etc? Is there a simple idea that I'm missing? Are there any ways to do this? I can use 'Created Merged Documents' to make 150 x 6 pages in Indesign so can anything be done from there?
    Any advice greatly appreciated
    Thanks
