How to insert hyperlinks in RTF document shown in JEditorPane?

This is a compound question so bear with me on this one :)
What I need is to insert an hyperlink in a JEditorPane; Store it as RTF code; Retrieve it; Show it and click on it to go the the destination.
1) So, first question, is there some method to automatically add the hyperlink and will it be saved in RTF with RTFEditorKit? (I'm actually using AdvancedRTFEditorKit but an answer to either will be enough)
2) I tried a method that adds what appears as a link but the document that is stored doesn't have the necessary RTF codes, only the formatting that makes it look like a link. I also checked the actual RTF codes I'd need to add and they seem easy to do. So, is there a way to add the actual underlying RTF codes to the document while it's in the JEditorPane?
I know the question(s) isn't too specific, if you can shed some light over the whole thing and point me in the right direction, it'd be great!

Just a follow up to my own question. I found a way to answer my question 2) and I'm now storing the rtf code for hyperlinks. Now, when I show the document in JEditorPane with RTFEditorKit, I get the name of the hyperlink with no formatting indicating that it's a hyperlink.
Example. The link "http://www.google.com" with the name "Google", only shows "Google" in plain text.
Is it because the components I'm using don't support hyperlinks from RTF files even though they're supported from HTML files?
Is there any way you can see this working? Is it possible to include something inside the JEditorPane that the user can click, instead of the hyperlink?

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.

How to set data in rtf document?

Hi friends,
I have a rtf document can anyone suggest how to set data in cells of an rtf document?Is there any way?
Thanks in advance..

Convert the resultSet from the db to a Object[][], let's call it result.
Then create a JTable (jTable1).
On the JTable you need to define the headers, and the data itself.
You can get the headers from ResultSetMetaData. Convert these to an array again (headers).
Now use these methods to create a model and set the model of the JTable.
Model model = new DefaultTableModel(result, headers);
jTable1.setModel(model);That's about the basics.
If you need more info, use at the tutorial at sun's homepage.

How to insert list or library documents to custom db

Hi All,
I have small requirement how to insert the list or library documents to Custom Database using server object model.
Thank,
Raj

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to insert some list items to a custom database using Server Object Model.
I suggest you can read some list field value you want using SPList and
SPListItem Object, then you can use SqlConnection and
SqlCommand object insert value to your custom database.
Here are some detailed code demos for your reference:

Inserting Hyperlinks in Pages Documents

I am writing a document in Pages with the intent of posting it at blogsite where I have editing privileges. I cannot, however, figure out how to highlight a portion of the text and link that text to a URL address. Can this be done with Pages?

Here is what is occurring when I attempt to insert a hyperlink in a Pages document:
1. When I click on the Inspector button and check the hyperlink box the following URL address appears (as though it were a default) http://livepage.apple.com/
2. This URL address will also appear in the Pages document that I am working on. I then have to return to the document and remove this URL address before continuing.
3. If I delete this particular URL address from the Link Box and paste in the URL address I want, the highlighted text in the document appears with a rectangular shaped box around the words I want hyperlinked but there is no link established.
4. These events are all quite puzzling because I had assumed that inserting a hyperlink was a fairly easy process. I looked in the Pages' Help section to verify my understanding before I even made my initial attempt to insert a hyperlink. After continually failing to do so, I posted a message that Dennis was kind enough to respond to but I am still pretty much stuck.

Why would you do that? Just use Character Viewer to input Apple's built in emoji.

I'm developping an HTML Editor on a JEditor Pane.

How to insert a word document or an RTF document into RichTextEditor?

How to insert a word document or an RTF document into af:richTextEditor. I am using Apache POI for reading the Word document and getting its contents.

Hi,
images are not yet supported. Its an open enhancement request for the rich text editor.
For tables, it seems they are supported but in a basic way (just HTML 4 style) if I interpret the tag documentation correct

How do you HYPERLINK a web page address to an EXCEL document in Firefox like is possible in Explorer

How do you HYPERLINK a web page address to an EXCEL document in Firefox like is possible in Explorer?

When you follow a hyperlink in Excel, usually it should open in your default browser. You shouldn't have to do anything special in Excel to create the link when Firefox is your default browser compared with IE. However, the Insert Hyperlink dialog might work differently. I think it might be able to automatically pre-populate a URL from IE, while in Firefox, you need to copy the URL from Firefox's address bar and paste it into the Insert Link dialog.

How to insert a HYPERLINK in a template Editable Field?

Question: How to insert a HYPERLINK in a template Editable Field?
Hi
Does anyone know how to insert a HYPERLINK in a template Editable Field?
I want the link to always display the word "Cities".
But the URL will change with each child page.
Here's what I've got so far . . .
Cities
Thanks so much!

NOTE: This is to go into the TEMPLATE
Your best bet is to keep the hyperlink OUT of the editable Field and to make the HREF attribute of the link editable.
This would go in the head of your document:

This would go where you want the link to appear:
<a href="@@(href)@@">cities</a>
THE BETTER WAY: You can either paste these quotes into the appropriate places in your template or you can insert:
<a href="#">cities</a>
and click inside the opening <a> tag.
Then go to Modify > Templates > Make Attribute Editable
In the dialog box "Editable Tag Attributes" you should now see "Choose which attributes of this A tag should be editable."
If HREF is not showing in the drop-down, do Add and put it there.
Check the box to Make this attribute editable.
Give a name for this editable attribute (if you have more than one on a page, you will want it to be understandable, like "cities" for your cities links).
Make sure it is of Type URL
If you want a default URL in place, put one in the Default field.
Then push OK.
To use it, on each page, do Modify > Template Properties... choose the property to edit, and put the new URL in the entry field.
Press OK.

How can I convert a Pages document into PDF or RTF?

I have been asked to send a Pages document to PC users in RTF or PDF format. How can I get my Pages document to convert into other formats for PC people?
Is that what the export feature is supposed to do? I just don't know how to sent my document via e-mail to non-Apple conputers!

You didn’t indicate whether you are using Pages ’09 v4.+ or the latest Pages v5(.2) release. To send an email with either Word or PDF attachment from within Pages:
Pages ’09 v4+
Pages menubar > Share (category Send via Mail) > (select Word (.doc) or PDF). Mail will launch into a compose window with the document already attached.
Pages v5+
Pages toolbar > Share > Send a Copy > Email > (select Word (.doc/x) or PDF - best). Mail will behave as above.
Note: Either version of Pages is not an MS Word clone and it must translate content into the Microsoft document architecture. If you must have maximum Word document accuracy, you will need Office for Mac 2011, and the associated MS Word application that produces native .docx format.
Backup your work.
