Hyperlinks from Word 13 to Acrobat

I created a document with MS Word 13 and want to generate a PDF of it using Acrobat 9. All works fine, except that the hyperlinks in the MS Word document will not transfer over to PDF. How do I get Word or Acrobat configured so that hyperlinks automatically transfer over to PDF?

For the newest WORD, you will need the newest Acrobat to transfer the tabs and hyperlinks. With AA9, you will have to add them manually. The alternative is to upgrade Acrobat or downgrade WORD.

  • How do I embed hyperlinks from Word 03?

    Hyperlinks from Word 03 do not work on pdf. The link is highlighted and underlined on pdf but doesn't work. Solution?

    Hello,
    I apologize for the delay in responding to your post. Are you viewing the converted PDF within the PDF viewer? If so, this is why the links appear not to work... it's a known issue with Acrobat.com's PDF preview function - we're working on it. If you open the PDF using Reader or Acrobat the links should work... let me know!
    Kind Regards,

  • Can Adobe Acrobat 9.0 Pro Convert File Hyperlink From Word to PDF?

    Is there any method to convert file link (eg. C:\Documents and Settings\xxx\My Documents\xx.xls) from Word 2000? I have read many related issues, but seems cannot get the final answer. Many of them only mention about URL hyperlink (eg. www.yahoo.com). Can anyone help?

    Do you mean that  Office XP and later version can automatically convert the file link? No need to manually create the link in Acrobat using the link tool?
    I will work this out to see whether ok or not.
    By the way, thank you, Michael Kazlow.

  • Hyperlink from Word to PDF

    Is it possible to make a link from a Word file to a specific page or part of a page in a PDF? I'm using Word 2003 and Acrobat Pro 7 on Windows XP SP2. If it makes a difference, I've got Acrobat Pro 9 here. Haven't installed it yet.

  • Creating PDF from Word 2010 and Acrobat X Colors Not Accurate

    I'm puzzled by this one.
    When we print the documents directly from Word 2012 the colors print correctly.
    When we use the one click button in the ribbon. PNG files convert well, Illustrator EPS files do not. We use a logo that has Pantone Process Blue and it turns aqua.
    I have tries many different setting and none convert correctly. I can make nice small files of these brochures for use on the internet, but the color is not good.
    If I use the File Print to Acrobat then it converts the colors well, but the files are larger. Trying to reduce the file size as a second step does not change the file size.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Though, I'm unclear at 'when I go to print it, it blows up from about 50KB to 10MB' but could you please check the file size of the PDF soon after conversion? You can find it under File->Properties->General Tab. It shouldn't automatically increase the file size at the time of printing.
    Would you be able to attach the file (if it's not confidential)?

  • Why do imported hyperlinks from Word not show up in Indesign Hyperlinks panel?

    ID CS6 Windows 7
    I am able to copy and paste hyperlinked text from Word into ID and everything works ok-- when exported to PDF the links work fine.
    except now client wants to rename the text of the hyperlink- but there seems to be no way to even see what the URL destination is.
    None of the Word links show up in the Hyperlinks panel.
    I have to find out the URL and delete the original linked text and redo them.

    Um. Are you not talking about proper URLs? I kind of assumed you were :)
    Actually, hyperlinks *should* import just nicely into ID, not only plain URLs but also those with alternative text. But if they do, they'd show in the hyperlink panel ...
    Can you check if they are mentioned in the Hyperlink Destination list in your ID document? That would confirm or disprove they are actually present, at some level.

  • Hyperlink from word in topic to glossary

    Can I use insert hyperlink from a word on a topic page to glossary term? I am not a programmer and wonder if there is an easy way to do this. I'm using Robohelp 7.
    Thanks.

    Hi there
    If you are thinking you might link to a term inside the Glossary tab or panel, the answer to that is no. It quite simply cannot be done.
    The Glossary panel is simply a display method. We cannot link to terms inside it or link from terms in it to elsewhere.
    What you can do is to run something called the "Glossary Hotspot Wizard". This is a wizard that will scan your topic content seeking matches to Glossary terms. Where a match is found, a DHTML Expanding Hotspot is created.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Problem converting links from Word 02 to Acrobat 7

    Hello All,
    I have this problem that is driving me nuts. I am working with Word 2002 and Acrobat 7 Pro.
    When I create internal links within the word document (terms linked to the glossary) and PDF using the PDF toolbar (change settings to include bookmarks and links, no security). The PDF only converts some of the links, and it is never consistent. My co-worker has the same problem, but her links that don't come in vary from mine (word 2003 acrobat 7).
    This doesn't happen to all documents with links, the website links work perfectly.
    Any ideas?
    thanks,
    dkelley_2

    I created the links in word, pressed the PDF Maker ("Adobe PDF" Button on toolbar), changed conversion settings: Standard, (all check but "Attach source file to PDF"), Security None, Word Tab (all checked but "Convert displayed comments to notes in the PDF"), Bookmarks were selected, clicked OK, clicked "Convert to PDF."
    If you look at my original post, I attached screenshots of the PDF Maker dialog box.

  • Convert from Word 2007 to Acrobat Pro 9; bookmark issue

    When converting from Word 2007 to PDF using Acrobat Pro 9, enabling "Convert Word Headings to Bookmarks", not only are Headings converted to bookmarks, but bulleted text (styles), as well.  I attached the subsequent PDF, but this forum does not permit the document attachment.  I really only want to show the Headings.  (It may be noteworthy to mention that when using this same set of styles in Word 2003 and Acrobat Pro7 the conversion was seamless.)
    Does anyone know how to correct this?  I have reviewed my Word styles and the issue does not appear to be on the document level.  Am I missing some obscure setting?
    I'd appreciate any help.
    Thanks.
    -PS

    I had a similar situation occur when converting Word 2007 docs to Acrobat Pro 9 Extended via the PDFMaker (Acrobat add-on tab in Word 2007), and I want to share a workaround. In summary, I had extraneous bookmarks appear in the PDF (heading 3s, body text, XE Index tags, etc.)  that I did not select to be in the PDF.  I contacted Adobe's support and ended up talking for approx. 2.5 hrs to 2 different reps with no solution. They reproduced the issue on their end, but couldn't figure out how to fix this. I recently upgraded to Tech Comm Suite 2.5 from 1.0. The Word 2007 conversion to PDF via Acrobat Pro 8.x worked fine.
    Scenario: I have 400-page user guides that I am required to publish as 'Press Quality' with navigable bookmarks to certain headings in the PDF. I have to generate the PDF via the Acrobat Add-On tab in Word, since I do not want to manually insert bookmarks in the PDF for 400 page documents (as you would when using the Adobe Print driver or 'Save As PDF' operation).
    In the Adobe PDF Maker dialog, I have the following Application Settings selected in the General tab:
    Create Bookmarks
    Add Links
    In the Bookmarks tab,  I originally had only two Elements selected for bookmarks:
    Heading 1 (a Word Heading already present) as the Level 1 Bookmark.
    Table of Contents Bookmark (a Word Style I created) as the Level 2 Bookmark.
    As a result, the Convert Word Headings to Bookmarks and Convert Styles to Bookmarks were both enabled in the Bookmarks tab.
    The resulting PDF contained extraneous bookmarks that I did NOT select, such as Heading 2s, 3s, even body text - too much to clean up for 400-page documents! Additionally, and this was annoying too - I noticed that all bookmarks appeared as Level 1 Bookmarks, making the PDF Bookmarks really messy. I converted multiple Word 2007 documents with the same results.
    How I resolved the issue:
    In the Word 2007 document, open the Styles window, select all instances of the specific Word Heading (in my case, Heading 1). All instances of the selected Word Heading will be selected in the doc.
    Click the New Style icon in the lower left part of the Styles window.
    In the Create New Style from Formatting dialog, create a new style name (e.g., I created H1).
    Just to be sure to NOT create the new style from an existing Word Heading, I selected (no style) in the Style Based On field.
    Configure the remaining formatting items as necessary, and then click OK. All of the selected instances from the old Word Heading style are now changed to the new style created (in my case, H1).
    Click the Preferences tab in the Acrobat add-on tab in Word 2007, and open the Bookmarks tab.
    Remove the old Word Heading (in my case, it was Heading 1) so it no longer will be included as a Bookmark in the PDF.
    Select the new Word Style that you created (in my case, H1) to be generated as the Level 2 bookmark. Note: My original Level 1 bookmark, "TOC Bookmark," is still selected. Now, only the Convert Word Styles to Bookmarks is enabled in the Bookmarks tab.
    Generate the PDF once again via the PDFMaker, and no extraneous bookmarks appear in the PDF.
    Note: I also noticed that when Index tags (XE tags) were present in an element selected to be a bookmark in the PDF (such as my new style, H1), they also appeared in the PDF Bookmarks pane. I just moved the XE tags down to the body text so they would no longer appear in the PDF.
    Question for discussion: Maybe there is a bug in the PDFMaker when both Convert Word Headings to Bookmarks and Convert Styles to Bookmarks are selected? The extraneous bookmarks do not appear in my PDF when only Convert Word Styles is selected.

  • Tiny U's when converting from Word 2007 to Acrobat 9

    When converting a MS Word document that has an underlined word in it, the PDF has very small capital U's before and after the underlining. This is when going from Word 2007 on Vista to Acrobat 9 (CS4). Anyone else experience this?

    Here's how I can duplicate this.
    1 - Open a new document or an existing document
    2 - Underline any word using either the Ctrl-U keystroke or by use of the ribbon bar option (Word 2007). By the way, this occurs only in Word, works well in PowerPoint.
    3 - Save document either as .docx or .doc
    4 - Convert to PDF by selecting the Acrobat ribbon and clicking on Create PDF.
    5 - View PDF, zoom to approximately 800% to see the very small capital U's
    It should also be noted that if the "Enable Accessibility and Reflow with tagged Adobe PDF" is unchecked, this issue goes away. However, this is absolutely not a viable option because all of my documents must be accessible for persons with disabilities. Furthermore, in theory I should/could be able to create the PDF from Word without the tags and use Acrobat's "Add tags to document" feature, but Acrobat doesn't handle complex documents well, or as well as creating the tags directly from Word.
    To see an example see this:

  • Hyperlinks lost when converting from Word 03 using Acrobat PDFMaker 10.0

    This hasn't been an issue before (using the same version of both softwares). I checked in Conversion Settings, and both Add Links and Create Bookmarks are checked. Help! Thanks!

    Try updating to 10.1.3.

  • Random missing hyperlinks from Word to PDF

    Am using XP/Word2003/Acrobat 8.1
    When converting a 5 page doc file to pdf, not all of the hyperlinks are created. Have examined the doc and all links are ok and work from there. The links created in the PDF also work, just not all make the transition! Any clues?

    I don't think I use linked text boxes as you describe. The advice from Adobe was as follows:
    "Deselect **Embed Tags in PDF (Accessibility, Reflow)** in the PDFMaker Conversion settings, and then re-create the PDF file.
    I am sure you will not face that problem.
    For the Word document which contains hyperlinks within inside table of contents, reflow of tagging information has to be removed."
    I understood the 1st bit and that partially solved the problem. Further investigation by me showed that if a piece of text in a cell was preceded by a hard line break, then that would not produce a link in Acrobat. If I removed the preceding hard line break, then the link would be created OK. It's a work-around but better than nothing.

  • Hyperlinks from Word not correct in pdf when in web browser v7

    We have a table of contents that we we have in word, the word file has hyperlinks to individual PDF files.  After a new item is added to the table on contents, we distill the word to a pdf.  Users access the pdf from a web page.  Recently something changed and the pdf file of the table of contents is not linking to the correct pdf file. 

    Thanks for clarifying that. We hadnt given consideration to the use of signatures like thatr as you have mentioned.
    Can we distribute the document without the risk of losing the signature validity in the Word document ?
    Is it better to apply signatures to PDFs ?
    Or can we preserve the appearance of the signature in the Word document ?
    I wonder why just one of the signatures is not displaying when i use the Adobe menu to generate the PDF.
    Perhaps some setting in the job options is causing that? What might it be though ?

  • Creating option (radio) buttons from Word to PDF (Acrobat Pro)

    Hello,
    I have a word document with form elements (from the form toolbar). After converting this file into a pdf with the acrobat pro add-in I make a interactive pdf with "form field recognition" (in German: "Formularfelderkennung ausführen") of the form menu.
    So far so good.
    But I want to use option buttons, too, not only checkboxes. In Word these option buttons are available only through the toolbar "control element toolbox" (in German: "Steuerelement-Toolbox"). But these elements are not recognized by the above mentioned Acrobat option.
    So, how can I do this without creating these option buttons by hand in Acrobat Pro?
    Thanks, Carlos

    Is it a Designer or Acrobat created form?

  • Can I make a pdf with hyperlinks from Power Point using Acrobat ?

    I have a Power Point presentation which includes hyperlinks to websites. When I use the Power Point slide display they work.
    Can Acrobat make a pdf from Power Point which includes the hyperlinks ?
    Will the hyperlinks work when the pdf is displayed by Acrobat Reader?
    Thanks

    But I want the pages in the pdf shown spreadwise.
    In AcrobatPro you can set the initial document view of single pages as spreads via Page Layout: Two-Up Continuous (Cover Page)
