Hyperlinks not working outside of Reader or preview?

I am trying to export pdfs to use in emails for my clients. I have inserted hyperlinks with URL destinations. When I open the PDF in adobe or preview, the links work and are clickable. But when viewing the email in mac mail or on the email website, the links are not. Is there a solve to this or something I am missing?

"The links are not" what? Working? Shown?
If they are not working, this is most likely based on security settings of Mac Mail for PDFs.

Hyperlink that contains backslash is not working in Acrobat Reader 8 and 9

Hi,
Does anyone know why a hyperlink that contains backslash is not working in Acrobat reader 8 and 9?
I created a document in Indesign CS and it contains hyperlinks that open up files from network drive so they contain backslash (for example: c:\foder\forder\filename.jpg). All the hyperlinks work in Acrobat Reader 6 but not in Acrobat Reader 8 or 9.
Anybody could share the solution would be very much appreciated. Thanks!

Did you ever figure this out? I am also having problems with the "No Hand" javascript which turns off the (not very helpful) page-forward hand icon (a hand symbol with a down arrow) which confuses our users when in fullscreen mode. We create interactive PDFs and everything worked fine up to Acrobat X/Reader X. Now in XI it doesn't allow the internal link icon (pointing finger) nor weblink icon (pointing finger with W) to appear. It just remains a plain o’ hand icon no matter what you mouse over even though there are links present.

Reading message from MQ- works in WSAD (IDE) but does not work outside WSAD

Read from MQ:
Same code works within WASD but does not work outside WSAD.

PDL - thanks for the suggestions - here are the results:
A button on the form that executes "this.print();" works fine.
Changing "this" to "event.target" results in the same error.
document.getElementById("PDFObj").Print(); works fine.
However, the reason that I'm using ".postMessage([message])" instead of ".Print()" is because I actually have a toolbar that has save, print, zoom in, zoom out, page up, page down, etc.... I simplified the switch statement in the post above to only include print, but in reality has a case for each of the functions above. The postMessage call is triggering the error, since the catch statement is printing out the error message above. Any idea why this would work with Professional but not Reader.

PDF Portfolio does not work with iOS Reader 11.3.2 on iOS 7.1.2

Well this is upsetting. I created a PDF form with several pages of the same form (it's a travel log).
My hoping to use Adobe Reader to complete the form and save back as a week at a time won't work.
I created the form using Acrobat Pro 9 from CS5.
Does anyone know if a PDF form in a Portfolio should work with Adobe Reader on the iPad2/
Also, what can I use that works with forms as a portfolio?
Ken

Ken,
please could you describe your workflow. It might help to find some solution. Also it would be great if you can share a sample of your document. Please email it to [email protected] with the reference to this discussion "PDF Portfolio does not work with iOS Reader 11.3.2 on iOS 7.1.2"
thank you.

Reader X hyperlinks not working

I am running Reader X Vn 10.1.0 on Windows Vista. Hyperlinks from pdfs on my machine to PDFs on websites have stopped working. I imagine that I have inadvertently changed a setting, but I can't see how to change it back. I have tried Edit, Preferences, Trust Manager, change internet settings and checked 'allow pdf files to access all web sites', but it does not seem to have made any difference. I do get the hand when I hover over the link, and the web address is correct, but nothing happens when I click on the link. If I open the pdf on my machine with acrobat, the links work fine. Please would someone let me know what setting to change in reader so that I can follow the hyperlinks. Many thanks

just the "alias hyperlinks"(don't know the specific name) are not working.
if I write down www.hp.com it's just fine.
i've uploaded documents..
one is created with nuance pdf converter and the other with MS Office Word "save as pdf" function.

so it seems like that nuance is not supporting "alias hyperlinks"..

Hyperlinks not working in cc 2014

I'm on CC 2014 and I'm curious if text hyperlinks are still not working. I've read that they didn't in a previous version, but I'm updated and still having trouble. I've tried both internal hyperlinks and hyperlinks to outside URLs. I'm pretty familiar with the process and can get them to work with frames and images, but no luck with text.
Thanks for any help or resources.
All the best,

I also had problems with my extensions.
I followed the following steps.
1. Closed Dreamweaver
2. Updated Extension Manager CC using the Creative Cloud desktop app.
3. Renamed C\Users\Joe Dempsey\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\DreamweaverCC\en_US\Configuration to C\Users\Joe Dempsey\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\DreamweaverCC\en_US\Configuration-backup
4.Deleted and re-installed the extensions using the Extension Manager.
5. Started Dreamweaver.
There may be a more efficient method; the above worked for me.

Bookmark hyperlinks not working within PDF

I have added hundreds of bookmarks and created hyperlinks to each one. The hyperlinks function from within iBooks Author but as soon as I export to PDF, the hyperlinks stop working.
From within the PDF the hyperlinks appear as underlined text, and the curser changes to indicate that a hyperlink is present. But clicking on a link does nothing. However, external hyperlinks (to websites: e.g. http://www.site.com) function OK.
I have opened the PDF within Preview, Adobe Reader and also within various iPads. Apple indicate that bookmarks/hyperlinks work when exporting to PDF, so what am I doing wrong?
I've searched the net for solutions and it appears that I'm not the only one with the same issue - but no solution is present.
Any ideas?

Are you sure that you really entered a link when you created an Hyperlink?
The described one is the one which is used by default by every iWork's components.
We must enter the true one by ourselves.

Picture hyperlinks not working when published? Please help....

Some of the hyperlinks to my pictures do not work when I publish to my folder. I´ve tried to empty Safaris cache but it still doesn´t work. Please help me, pretty urgent....

hi briebrie,
this is common mistake, see my post in this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=4004970#4004970
The work around is to leave iWeb default nav bar and header enabled, add your home made nav bar (outside/below of iWeb default nav bar).
Then turn off iWeb nav bar and header when you are done.

Crystal Report (visual studio 2005)-Hyperlink not working on exported PDF

I have created a crystal report by using VS 2005, there are some hyperlinks inside the report.
After i exported the report to PDF, I check the PDF file, none of the link contains inside the PDF file.
It seems a bug, i google this issue, some people can export to RTF first and then in RTF save as PDF, then the link should be there. I tried it, it works, but it totally mess up my report layout.
Please advise,
Tommy

Typing the terms "pdf export hyperlink crystal" in the search box at the top right corner of this page comes up with the following KB (5th hit):

"Messed" up report export to RTF does not tell me much either. A link to a screenshot will be great.

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).

Hyperlinks not working in PDf created from Keynote '08

When I produce a pdf from File > Print in Keynote '08, the hyperlinks do not work in the pdf. I have tried all the various pdf settings (even the ones that export hyperlinks) and no luck, the links are not working in the pdf. If I invoke the File > Export > PDf command in Keynote, the hyperlinks do work, but Export does not provide as much flexibility in PDF creation that File > Print does, thus my need to go to File > Print.
Any suggestion?

Hyperlinks not working in PDF from ID

Hi folks:
I am currently creating a file in InDesign (CC 2014) and attempting to export it to a pdf. When I do export it, only 6 out of 15 hyperlinks work in PDF. The links that work AND do not work are both URLs and Emails. In ID all links function in the Hyperlinks panel. I have unclicked "Shared Hyperlinks Destination" for all links. It is not that the links are broken, it is that in the PDF version, half of the links are not reading that a hyperlink is attached.
Any troubleshooting ideas are greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Jen

When you export with File > Export > Adobe PDF (Print), you need to check Hyperlinks at the bottom (see below). Hyperlinks are not included by default:

Hyperlinks not working properly in PDF, converted by Nuance PDF converter

I have encountered a problem with the pdf files which were converted by the Nuance PDF converter(v8.1).
When reviewing a pdf file in Adobe Reader X(v10.1.0) the hyperlinks are not working properly in the "fit to window width and enable scrolling" mode.
The second one, "fit one full page to window", is working without problems. In this mode all links can be used.
Attached is a screenshot about the two modes in Adobe Reader X.
This issue is just happening, if the file is converted by Nuance PDF converter.
Well, Nuance support was not helpful at all.
Regards

just the "alias hyperlinks"(don't know the specific name) are not working.
if I write down www.hp.com it's just fine.
i've uploaded documents..
one is created with nuance pdf converter and the other with MS Office Word "save as pdf" function.
