Hyperlink issue in Smartform PDF

Hi  All,
           I am facing below issue with Smartform after it converted to PDF. The PDF file has below link
(http://www.vocakiri.co.uk/_assets/media/StandardTC3_(including_REG_31_Requirements).pdf) in footer window.
But when i am selecting the hyperlink it is getting truncated as "http://www.vocakiri.co.uk/_assets/media/StandardTC3_" .it opens window with truncated
web address which leads to error.
could you please let me know what is the problem or is there any note need to be applied.
Thanks and Regards,
Prasanna B

Hi Prasanna B,
See thread http://scn.sap.com/thread/1819587.
You can try using the callback method described in the following Notes:
622718 - SF Web Forms: Callback for the URL format
707931 - Web Forms: Incorrect URL address with the HTML output
You can get a different title of the link by using a kind of user exit for the URL processing, which is described in Note 622718.
You must create your own function module with the following interface:
*"  CHANGING
*"     REFERENCE(DATA) TYPE  TTXCTOKEN
Data: i_data type STXCTOKEN,
(see note 622718; TTXCTOKEN is an internal table of type STXCTOKEN)
Now when you call the function module of the Smart Form, you should fill the parameter OUTPUT_OPTIONS-URLCALL with the name of the new function module. As a result your function module is called, when the URL is processed by the Smart Forms composer.
This method allows you to use a shorter alias for a longer URL link.
Regards,
Aidan

  • Export to .PDF, hyperlinks issue

    Hello,
    I've been working with Crystal Reports 2008, and so far it all seems to be going well. There is only one issue that I've come across, and I was hoping for some direction.
    For some reason, when I export my form to .PDF, all hyperlinks are removed... I've found that I can export to RTF, then to .PDF, but this sometimes causes some formatting issues.
    Is there any way for crystal reports to keep their hyperlinks when exporting to .PDF?
    - Scott

    Hi, thanks for your reply,
    You know, I've never tried it just out of Crystal Reports 2008 until now. I ran the report, then in the preview tab, I clicked on the field that had the hyperlink formula in it...
    Clicking it just selected the textbox. I tried the same thing in CR2008 Viewer, with no success. The odd thing is that, if I export the report to rtf, excel, word, html, etc. the hyperlinks are there. It's just not there in the viewer, or in the exported .PDF.
    I'll explain how I did the hyperlink, and hopefully you can tell me whether I'm doing something wrong.
    I have a field in our database with the full path to the document that I want to link to. The path is similar to 
    xx.x.xx.xx\subfolder\subfolder\filename.PDF. This path will work so long as the report is being viewed on a PC connected to our local network (which it is).
    Then, in my query, I select the path as one of the database fields. If I just put the field into a text-box, the value is printed correctly, so my query is grabbing the correct path.
    Then, on the text-field that I want, I right click, select 'Format Text...' and select the 'Hyperlink' tab. Then I set the hyperlink type to 'A file', and under hyperlink information, I select the formula button. I then bind the formula to the field with the path in it, save changes and retrun to my form.
    Within CR2008, it doesn't look like there are any hyperlinks, and clicking the field just selects the text. If I export it to .rtf, excel, word, html, etc. the link is there, and it works fine. As I've said, it's just the CR2008 viewer and exported .PDF files where the hyperlink doesn't appear.
    Now, on a whim, I decided to just type the path into the 'file path:' field in the hyperlink tab. Doing this manually allows the link to be clicked in CR2008, but I still can't get the exported .PDF file to recognize the hyperlink. Even if setting the static path allowed my links to be maintained in an exported .PDF, I need the Path to be set based upon the field in our database.
    So, that's where I am now. If you can see something I've done wrong, or something that I haven't tried, please let me know. This is the only thing that I've come across that is causing me any trouble so far. I would appreciate any help that anyone could offer, Thanks.

  • Issue - Cannot open pdf in minimized mode in 8.1.0

    Hi All,
    We have an application that needs users to select the docs they would like to print and they can specify the number of copies too. Here, we need the ability to open a PDF file in minimized mode, print it and close it.
    We were able to do this with no problems earlier, but after installing Adobe reader 8.1.0, we are facing some issues with this functionality.
    Issues -
    1. PDF opens in full screen, and not in minimized mode.
    2. When multiple docs are selected, the first doc opens up and stays in full screen. once it is sent to printer, it stays put and other docs open on top of it in fullscreen, print and get closed. The first doc remains open throughout.
    Any help in resolving these issues would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Vidya

    I'd suggest uninstalling Reader, and reinstalling.
    It sounds like FoxIt is hijacking some of Reader's registry entries. Upgrading Reader probably won't fix these, but uninstalling and reinstalling may.

  • Hyperlinks from CHM to PDF

    Our documentation comprises On-line Help as CHM files, and User Guides as PDF. Up to now the user guides were printed but we wish to provide them as PDF for on-screen use.
    Now we also wish to have hyperlinks from CHM to PDF and vice versa. We can presumably (I haven't yet tested this) handle PDF-to-CHM using the context-sensitive help functionality, but when we make links from CHM-to-PDF we are unable to go to a specified location in the PDF.
    The calls we use are of the type:
    <a href='SomeDocument.pdf#page=10'>
    <a href='SomeDocument.pdf#G1025448'>
    <a href='SomeDocument.pdf#nameddest=SomeChapter'>
    and they work in the preview window but not from CHM; the PDF opens on page 1 rather than at the specified page or marker.
    I had some success embedding the PDF call in a batch file and calling that, but that will be unmaintainable.
    We use RoboHelp 8 and FrameMaker 7.1. Would updating to TCS2 (ie Frame 9) help us? From what I could find on Adobe.com TCS allows importing from Frame but we do not want to import, just to cross-refer, preferably with links which can be updated automatically.
    Anybody who can advise us?
    --- Derek

    I have made a dent in the problem, can't say I've cracked it yet.
    RoboWizard has a page describing the use of HTML Help Shortcuts which is got me started (thanks Rick, if you'll post here I'll give you a "Helpful Answer").
    The procedure I now use is, in RoboHelp: Insert > HTML Help Controls > Shortcut. I fill in second part of the wizard like this:
    so that it calles Acrobat to display the PDF (full path given), with parameters to search for a string "bookmark_2".
    Then in the PDF I add a comment using Comments > Tools > Highlight and edit its properties like this:
    When I compile the CHM and click the link, Acrobat opens and searches for the string. I made sure it was unique so the user is brought to the correct place.
    Now it's a bit clumsy since you have to add the bookmark manually after creating the PDF from Frame, but it does work.
    The other problem is that the HTML Control is not editable except in RoboHelp's HTML view. You can edit it in Design view but the edit doesn't stick. In HTML view the link details are present three times and you have to edit them all.
    Anybody have bright ideas to streamline this process?

  • I have an issue with some PDF documents   some MS Office documents, notably MS Word when received in eMail as attachments not displaying on iPhones, iPad 2s

    Hi,
    I have an issue with some PDF documents & some MS Office documents, notably MS Word when received in eMail as attachments not displaying properly on iPhones, iPad 2s & new iPads?
    PDF docs - areas of the doc only show as grey splotches regardles of viewer
    MS Word Docs -
    inserted graphics don't display at all,
    tables & lists especially with borders are broken &
    tables & lists missing the borders &
    tables & lists missing the 1st 1-2 lines of the lists/tables.
    This is replicated on iPhone 4s, iPhone 4Ss, iPad 2s, iPad new (x2)
    It certainly happens in iOS 5.1.1 & iOS 5.1
    We believe it all worked aok in iOS 5.0.1(?) & prior
    There is no problems reading/seeing these PDF & Word docs on anything other than iDevices.
    This is rather critical for us & if not quickly fixed/rectified will prevent us from further purchases of these devices
    Rolling back to iOS 5.0.1 or prior I believe isn't possible because of the BaseBand update(?) & isn't much of an option because of the quite noticeable Battery/Charging/WiFi improvements in 5.1 & 5.1.1

    Hi,
    I logged a call with AppleCare & have since had explained why this occurs (some time ago)
    I'll try to explain what was indicated to me.
    iOS has a limited Font Set & this affects what PDFs can display. You need to use iOS supported fonts in your PDFs to see/read them properly  
    These supported fonts are indicated here => http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4980
    Regards MS office docs, iOS doesn't have much of an API to work with MS Office documents at all so is stuck with 3rd Party Apps to try to do it.
    Unfortunately Mail in/on iOS uses the API to attempt to open/use MS Office attachments unless you tell it to use an App to open the attachment.
    I have had success opening & reading MS office docs now with CloudOn, but find it slow & very awkward to use.
    Not too sure if this helps others, but at least it explains why this is occurring

  • Having issues Creating a PDF from an Excel file

    When creating PDFs from an Excel file using the Adobe PDF printer, I sometimes run into an issue where the PDF ends up shrinking what's on the document and distorting the image. I have examined all Print Settings and can't find a difference between any of the margin settings, paper size, etc. Once I go to print to Adobe PDF, it just changes the way the whole document looks and is spaced.
    To work around the issue, I use Microsoft's built in Save As PDF feature, but that's only works some of the time. I would like to use the Acrobat software so that I can also edit the document immediately without having to re-open it.

    Be sure Adobe PDF is selected as the printer in the print menu. Then do a print preview. It it looks wrong then, it is likely an Excel format issue.

  • Hyperlinks not working in PDF created from Word

    I have created a Word document containing hyperlinks but when I print it to a PDF file (using Acrobat 7.0.9 on Windows Server 2003), the hyperlinks look OK in the PDF file but nothing happens when I click on them.
    In Acrobat, under Edit > Preferences > Convert to PDF > Microsoft Office > Edit Settings, the "Add bookmarks and links to Adobe PDF file" option is ticked.
    How can I get the hyperlinks to work in a PDF file created from a Word document?

    The original post did not indicate the method of creating the PDF. The result that was obtained was what happens when you print to the Adobe PDF printer. To get the hyperlinks embedded in the PDF, you have to use the PDF Maker (create PDF in WORD 2007).

  • Issue with opening .PDF files after recalling from Symantec Enterprise Vault

    Good Morning,
    I am having issues with opening PDF files that have been recalled from Symantec Enterprise Vault and some of the files are anywhere from 3-4 years old.  Some files open, while others return the error: Adobe Reader could not open filename.pdf because it is not a supported file type or might have been damaged.  It is inconsistent as to which files it occurs with.  I am not ready to believe that I have that many corrupt files out there.  I am opening them on a Windows 7 Enterprise SP1 x64 desktop. Adobe 10.1.7. I have already configured the registry setting for bValidateBytesBeforeHeader that I found in another article to no avail.
    The files are on a network share, but I also tried copying them to my local desktop and still received the error.
    I have seen other posts regarding this error, but do not see a definitive solution and am hoping that in recent days someone has come up with a solution.
    Thank You
    Brian Dougherty

    Not supported file type can (but not always) mean the PDF was created with an old enough version of Acrobat, that it isn't comaptible with reader X or XI.
    Might have been damaged is pretty cut and dried in its meaning and interpretation.
    There's a known issue with Mac OS and Safari Browser "breaking" PDFs as they download, but it's not so common for Windows. Since these are files you already had, it would be even less applicable.
    You can try downloading an older version of Reader to check if it's a compatibility issue, but you'd have to uninstall the latest to do it and it'd be a lot of bother if they still don't open. It would also mean they are "broken" and cannot be repaired, that I know of.

  • Can Preview recognize hyperlinks (embedded URLs) in PDF docs?

    I've been trying to research this online but I get conflicting answers. Can Preview recognize hyperlinks (embedded URLs) in PDF documents? If it can, then how are those created?
    I am using Adobe Acrobat Professional v7 (on Windows) and Preview doesn't appear to see the links I've created. Acrobat Reader on both Mac and Windows works fine.

    I don't have any documents that I can test straight off, but I know Preview is limited when it comes to some of the advanced features of PDFs and you have to use Acrobat Reader for those. This might be another of those.

  • Font issue in exported PDF from indesign

    Font issue in exported PDF from indesign:
    In Indesign file we have kept a sentence in “Univers LT Std” (San serif font) with all caps style that was orginally in lower case. Refer below
    When we selected the sentence in exported PDF some of the characters are not selected. Refer below.
    If we enable “create tagged PDF“ in export PDF setting, then the problem is solved. Refer below.
    Can you please check why this problem happened? In another project also we have faced this same problem but different font “Frutiger LT Std” with all caps style. Here also same San serif font. Please check and advise to solve this issue permanently.

    Without tags a PDF is a silly amount of letters, images and lines, with tags all itams a kept in their semantic context. So work with tags as it is the only way to get correct selections and export to other file types like Word DOCX.
    Without tags InDesign reads from left to right from top to bottom and the font geometry might influence the correct order of letters.
    Why should anyone work without tags today? If you open a tagged PDF in Acrobat DC it is much faster than without tags.

  • What is the max number of hyperlinks supported in a PDF docment?

    What is the max number of hyperlinks supported in a PDF docment?
    How do I find out how many hyperlinks there are in a PDF document?

    I don't think there's a limit to the number of links you can add to a file...
    This code (taken from the reference files) will report the number of links in your file:
    var numLinks=0;
    for ( var p = 0; p < this.numPages; p++)
    var b = this.getPageBox("Crop", p);
    var l = this.getLinks(p, b);
    console.println("Number of Links on page " + p +" is " + l.length);
    numLinks += l.length;
    console.println("Number of Links in Document is " + numLinks);

  • Relative Hyperlinks when Exporting to PDF

    I am working on a number of InDesign pages that hyperlink out to various other supporting files, which I've saved all within the same folder as the PDF exports of the InDesign files.
    When I use the Path button to browse to the file I want to target, it inserts an "absolute" link to that file. Since this whole folder of inter-connected documents must be portable, I want to use "relative" linking syntax. I tried just typing in the "filename.doc" and file://filename.doc but, with no success.
    Thanks for any clues on this.
    -Tony

    I create InDesign files all the time that require relative links.  InDesign hyperlinking does not support that directly.
    I use a third party program called "Filezilla" (free from downloads.com) to upload the supporting documents and then to copy the relative links.  At least this way (copy/paste) I can ensure I have the correct path out to the link.
    I then paste the link into the proper hyperlink dialogue box.
    PDF, and away we go.
