Image Maps link not working in Acrobat 8 3D PDFs generated from RoboHelp 7

All of my hyperlinks work when I just generated my RoboHelp
project to PDF using RoboHelp 7 with the new Adobe Technical
Communications Suite (with Acrobat 8 3D). However, the links to
topics within the document didn't maintain from the image maps. I
had originally created flowcharts in Microsoft Visio, exported then
as .gifs, and imported them into topics in RoboHelp X5. Then I
created image maps from the boxes to topics in the RoboHelp
project. When I converted my project to RoboHelp 7 and generated
the PDF, all the links work great, except I don't get the
finger-pointing cursor when I hover over the boxes in the
flowcharts like I do with regular hyperlinks. Can someone please
tell me why? Thanks!

Sigh... and this is why no one like to work with newbies...
Thank you for your help. I am embarrased to admit that this was the issue.

Image map links not working in all browsers

Hi, I develop HTML marketing emails once a week and my boss
has recently informed me that some, not all, of the image mapping
links do not work in all browsers or emails i.e. MacMail, Opera,
Safari, etc. He's positive there's something in Dreamweaver that
makes the links universally accommodated no matter what email/web
browser you use, but I haven't been able to find a solution as of
yet.
Any help on this would be appreciated, thanks!
:music;

Let's start with the least critical issue. Your boss and his
boss are
simply wrong. An HTML link is just an HTML link, whether
created in DW or
in Notepad.
Now, on to the meat. When you upload this page to the web, do
the links
work? And when you say that they don't work, what do you
mean? Do you mean
that when you click on them, you are not taken to the linked
page? Which
links are not working?
Finally, why do you have your mapped image also within an
anchor tag?
<a href="
http://www.beyondthewall.com/xcart/giftcert.php"><img
src="Slice.jpg" width="263" height="58" border="0"
usemap="#Map" /></a>
Is that the one where the link doesn't work?
Can you post a link to this page on the web, please?

Links not working in Acrobat v9

I have a user who has inserted links to another file in a pdf, using Acrobat v9. He does this using the Tools - Advanced Editing - Link Tool option. The links work fine until he links to a file that is not saved within the same folder location as the pdf. As soon as he does this, he gets an error that the file location cannot be found. This has worked fine for the user in the past but he has recently had his Acrobat reinstalled. Is there an option on install that needs to be selected to allow this sort of link to be created and work?
Just another piece of information here, apparently the links work fine when opened by a colleague who is using Acrobat v9.4.7. The original user is using Acrobat v9.3.4. Is there something different between these 2 versions?
Thanks for any help.

Typically this occurs from a link being relative or absolute. Check that the link is indeed properly stated with the link path.

Image - maps are not working in Firefox but it does work in IE. Some help required.

Hey there,
Last week i've been building a website for our company. However, there is still a problem with our banner/slider. I've uploaded some images and the slider is currently working. But the image maps ,using <map> & <area> taggs, are not functional in FF. They do work in IE so I suppose it should be working correctly.
I've tried using Chrome & Safari but the problem keeps persisting.
Some help would be nice (:
Marnix.

Doesn't work in Firefox, Chrome, and Safari? <br />
Sounds like you're using non-compliant code.

Table of Contents links not working after conversion to PDF

I have created links in a MS Word 2007 document, including in a Table of Contents, a List of Tables, as well as internal cross-reference links. I have converted to a pdf file using Acrobat 9 Pro. All the links were retained except for the page links in the Table of Contents. Does anyone have any insight into how to correct this error?

MG,
You can get links to work in Numbers documents that have been converted to PDF, but it's quirky.
No links survive Printing to PDF
Links outside of tables (links in text boxes, etc.) survive Export in Sheet View
Links inside and outside tables survive export in Page View

Google Map & Links Not Working...

Hi Guys
I recently purchased ilife 08, mainly to get the functionality of being able to embed a Google Map into my website. This works fine on my Macbook, but when I try and upload it to my website (not a .Mac address), whilst the page displays with a big "hole" where the Google map should be, the Google map itself does not populate the page. Any ideas if this is a known "bug"?
Also, my Welcome page worked fine with iweb 06, but in iweb 08, the links to the other pages of my site at the top of the page are not visible at all. I'm currently stuck with my iweb 06 built site and unable to take advatage of the updated 08.....
I posted before about these problems, and the advice was to make sure that the feeds, Media and script files were uploaded to the site. However, these are all there....I'm really not sure at all what I'm doing wrong!
Any help would be much appreciated. Many thanks!

Since posting the above, I was looking again at the files on the uploaded site and I noticed that whilst I had a folder called Scripts on the site, when I went into that folder, and then in to the Widgets folder inside of that, there was only the 'Detail View' folder inside of it - no Google Maps folder or Navbar folder!!! Not sure why this has happened.
I've now tried uploading these folders, but they're not appearing as folders, they just look like files for some strange reason.
It sounds like this is the reason for my problems, but how do I get these folder to upload correctly?
I feel like I am soooooo close to getting this to work now!!

Acrobat XI Standard "send to mail" option not working after open a pdf file from Mozilla Firefox 35.0.1

Hi all,
I have a strange problem with one user. We use an internal web site where users upload pdf files. Usually other users could open and view the files. What happened since a couple of days. One user uses Acrobat XI Standard to view and edit the files. When he opens the file from Firefox he could edit it/save it and so on but when click on the email button at first the application freeze and after this nothing happens. When he saved the file, opened again and press the email button everything works without any problem. I've already check the settings in the Acrobat about the email client and it is Outlook 2010. Does someone have an idea how to solve it? Thanks in advance
(the computer is with windows 7 Pro 64 bit SP1, Outllook 2010 32 bit, Acrobat XI Standard 11.0.10 )

Hi Kiro ,
Did you try opening that file in any other browser ?If not ,please try doing that once and see if that works for you.
Try Repairing Acrobat once and see if that helps.

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.

Image drag drop not working in scaffholding. Does it require soem setting?

image drag drop not working in scaffholding. Does it require soem setting?

Hello Manoj,
The scaffolding teamplate which you use to create scaffolding page is actually a design prototype which helps you to create similar types of pages instances very quickly without authoring each page separately (for example news, aticle types of pages) and that is the concept of scaffolding only.
For example - When you go to location http://localhost:4502/miscadmin#/etc/scaffolding/geometrixx you will see a "News" page which is an example of scaffolding (this is a similar page which you can create using scaffolding template).
Now if you open this page you will be accessing http://localhost:4502/cf#/etc/scaffolding/geometrixx/news.html and here you will see already design page.
     1. if you access page properties from side kick you will see how this page is configured using target template and target path
     2. if you go to design mode using side kick you will see how the component has been design (which is similar to what appears on page when you came first time)
     3. Now come back to normal view of that page (http://localhost:4502/cf#/etc/scaffolding/geometrixx/news.html) and author this page with some dummy property and click on "create" button. I know here you can not author the image as it comes as disabled empty box.
     4. once you author the content and click on create button it will create an instance of scaffolding page on the same page you can see the link on the top of same page.
     5. Now access that page, when you access that page the page will take reference of target template you configured using pare preoperties to display the page.
     6. On this page you will see the same component you configured and when you will edit it you can author the image from there directly.
Now question is why to configure same component two times half data from scaffolding and half data from page but answer is the design is correct because the page design which you have created (for example http://localhost:4502/cf#/etc/scaffolding/geometrixx/news.html) is just proto type to create actual page instances and prototype can not holds values for page instance (specially image until it doesnt configured correctly for page instance in this case) which exist only when you create pages using the scaffolding page prototype. Otherwise you have to do more customization by extending scaffolding "/libs/wcm/scaffolding" changing the code and design OR you have to design it according to your target page strtucture which you have configured in page properties (specially image node).
If you want to create your own page prototype using scaffolding template and want image to associate just copy paste "/etc/scaffolding/geometrixx/news/jcr:content/dialog/items/items/tab2" node to your newly created scaffolding page prototype.
for more information on scaffolding just refer -http://dev.day.com/docs/en/cq/current/wcm/scaffolding.html
I hope it clarifies your question and help you to proceed. Let me know if you need more information or help.
Thanks,
Pawan

Adobe Edge links not working

Yeah I have also experienced links not working when I import my .oam file from Adobe Edge Animate also. Is there anything the Muse team is doing to fix this issue? I need a response from you guys by the end of the week. my company website is malfunctioning due to issues with your software. If there is some sort of hotfix please let us know.

When you install the software illegally, using a volume license, there is a script you can run that will enter all of the adobe servers into your local DNS hosts file so the software can be activated. This makes accessing those domains impossible. This scenario fits the description of your issue, not suggesting anything beyond that.
The hosts file is in /private/etc/hosts and can be accessed through the terminal:
sudo nano /private/etc/hosts
If you see a bunch of adobe servers in there, that is your problem.

I'm sorry, but Apple does not provide a downgrade path for iOS. Because downgrading is unsupported by Apple we cannot discuss it on these forums, but you can use Google to find information on how to install an older version of iOS on any iDevice.

Add new document link not working in upgraded sharepoint 2013?

Hello there,
Upgraded SharePoint team sites from 2010 to 2013. add new document link not working for shared document in upgraded sharepoint 2013?. it is specially not working on machine where Office web apps set up with this sharePoint server and it
is working fine with environment Office web apps not configured with Sharepoint.
Looking resoluion /suggestion, thanks in advance.
Regards,
Sushil

Hi Sushil,
According to your description, my understanding is that the add new document link was not working on machine where Office web apps set up with this SharePoint server after you upgraded SharePoint team sites
from 2010 to 2013.
For your issue, it can be caused by integrating Office Web Apps with upgraded SharePoint Site.
Firstly please make sure claims-based authentication is used by the SharePoint web application that is used to create the new document. Only web applications that use claims-based authentication can open
files in Office Web Apps. To determine the authentication provider for a web application, follow these steps:
1.In SharePoint 2013 Central Administration, click Manage web applications.
2.Select the web application that you want to check, and click Authentication Providers on the ribbon.
The authentication provider must be displayed as Claims Based Authentication for Office Web Apps to work correctly with the web application. To resolve this issue, you can delete the web application and recreate
it using claims-based authentication, or you can change the authentication method of the web application.
Secondly, make sure the WOPI zones match on the SharePoint 2013 and the Office Web Apps Server farm.
To do this, run the following command on the SharePoint Server:
Get-SPWopiZone
The result will be one of the following:.
internal-https
internal-http
external-https
external-http
Next, run the following command on the SharePoint Server.
Get-SPWOPIBinding
In the output, look for WopiZone: zone. If the results from Get-SPWopiZone don’t match the zone that is returned by Get-SPWOPIBinding, run the Set-SPWOPIZone -Zone cmdlet on the SharePoint Server to change
the WOPI zone to match the result from Get-SPWOPIBinding.
If not work, you can try to disconnect SharePoint 2013 from Office Web Apps Server and re-configure Office Web Apps for SharePoint 2013.
For more information, please refer to the article:
