In preview how can i create an hyperlink annotation

I've upgradetd to mountain lion and i'd like to create a Link annotation on my PDF using Preview, but i cannot find the right tool
The Help says:
Click Annotate in the toolbar, if you don’t see the annotations bar.
Click Link in the annotations bar.
but i cannot find the "link" tools anymore.
Any hint?
Thanks

Preview used to be such a useful application, why has Apple removed so many functions?
1. Can't create a white box to white out an area - no way to remove the shadow.
2. "Save as" is back in Mountain Lion version but hidden behind the alt key
3. There is no hand function, so only possible to move the image around awkwardly via the scroll bars, or by drawing lines (sic)
4. Can't insert hyperlink text
5. Worst of all for me, it is no longer possible to "print selected pages". That was how one could:
Select exactly the pp one wanted to print - given that page numbering in pdf documents is often quite different from that in the view.
Create new pdf documents by selecting various images or pages and then saving them as a new pdf document in the Print menu
Create new pdf documents of just the pages one wanted, again by saving those selected in the Print dialogue.
Why has Apple wrecked such a useful application?

How can i create a hyperlink annotation on a pdf file using preview? the tool is removed from the toolbar

It seems that the tool to create an hyperlink on a pdf file is removed from the toolbar!

In order to initiate printing by clicking a button, the button has to have either an "execute menu item" type action or use the "print" JavaScript method. As you guessed, the former won't work since there are no menu items to execute, and the latter can only work if the particular PDF viewer you're using supports it. I'm not aware of any that do on iOS.
The button doesn't appear because you're probably opening it in the default PDF viewer, which doesn't support forms at all. If you were to open the form in Adobe Reader, you'd see the button but it wouldn't work.

Captivate 5: how can I create a hyperlink within a slide that links to an internet site?

Hi.
I need to create a hyperlink on a slide in Captivate 5 that links to an internet site.
I cannot seem to locate this function on the menus in Captivate 5.
Can someone please give me the instructions on how to do this?
Thanks.
CB.

Hi there
It's unfortunate that you missed the links we tried to put where you would find them before you even posted. Because if you had read through them, it would have saved you from having to post your question as it is answered there.
Even though you missed the links, I'd heartily encourage you to read through them. Especially the Frequently Encountered Issues link, as it will also address some issues you will likely encounter with linking.
Cheers... Rick

How can i create a hyperlink to individual emails?

I would like to be able to create a hyperlink to click through to individualk emails. I plan on creating a simple database in Excel and would like to be able to instantly access individual emails. I have done this in the past with files stored on my harddrive. It's a really useful way of managing thousands of emails.
Thanks!
Nick

thanks 'a brody' - i have found MailTags as a 3rd part app which may do the trick. in the past i have resorted to saving pdf print outs of mails to a hard drive and then using a hyperlink to the file. it just doesn't seem very elegant (this solution can be useful where i then share the database with colleagues using the same networked drive).
i can't imagine i'm the only person trying to categorise and track leads - perhaps i need to bite the bullet and source a really good CRM app?

How can I create a hyperlink at the end of my video?

Hi everyone-
Is it possible to create a hyperlink (or clickable URL) at the end of my video in Premiere Pro? I'd like to be able to have some simple language to an end card reading, "To learn more, click here" with a hyperlink leading to a relevant website.
(I know there are ways to do this in YouTube with Annotations, but this isn't my question. This video will not be hosted on YouTube.)
Thanks!

As noted in the other reply, this isn't done through the video editor. It's something that needs to be available from the hosting service for the video ... and handled through that end. The sort of command that says "at this point in the timeline clicking on video gets this reaction ... ". So check with whatever "service" will be hosting it for the details of how they handle this, and then you would add the text into your video at the appropriate moment in "time" ... but it would actually be the command system of the hosting service that would have the actionable command.

How can I create a hyperlink directly in the navigation menu using iWeb09?

I would like to add a URL to an external page in the navigation menu of my website using iWeb09. I have not been able to change the URL automatically generated by iWeb09 for each new page. The best I can do is to select text or an image that I want to link to the external page. I would rather create the hyperlink directly in the navigation menu. Is there a way of doing this?

Try this...
Create a blank internal page named "Link" (actually you can name the page whatever you want.) Then in that "Link" page add an HTML Snippet with the following code:
<script type="text/javascript">
parent.window.location = "http://www.externalpage.com"; // change this to your own URL
</script>
...Once published, clicking on "Link" in iWeb’s navbar will immediately redirect to the external page. (Thanks to Cyclosaurus for the code).

Hello, I just started using muse a week a go, I´m almost done with my first site but I´m trying to use the One Gennius Gallery and create a hyperlink to a thirth party WEBsite but it only shows option to go to a page within the same site, not to anotherone

Just follow these steps:

How do I create a hyperlink to another file?

How can I create a hyperlink to another file on my Mac?

Do you really mean "Hyperlink" as in a web page link to your file?
Or do you want a Mac OS X Alias icon placed in a different folder or on your desktop to a file? Hold Command-Option keys while dragging the file to a new folder, will create an Alias.
Or perhaps a Unix Symbolic Link (similar to a Mac OS X Alias, only different). This is done from a Terminal session using "ln -s /path/to/your/file /path/to/folder/where/symlink/to/be/placed"

How can I create an internal hyperlink in iWeb? Would like to put an interactive menu at the top of a page.

How can I create an internal hyperlink in iWeb? Would like to put an interactive menu at the top of a page.

Do you meant a link to one of your other pages or to a location on one of your pages? If it's the latter those are called anchors and iWeb does not support them. However, there are workarounds for that. See this blog: How to use anchors in iWeb. If you don't have a lot of widgets on the page it can work fairly well.

How can I create a text pop up window in my Pages document? I want text to pop up when the reader hovers his/her cursor over a certain word.

How can I create a text pop up window in my Pages document? I want text to pop up when the reader hovers his/her cursor over a certain word in the document. I am teacher. So for example when a student came to word he/she did not know, if he/she hovered the cursor over the word, a defintion or other information would appear. You can do this in Word using bookmarks/hyperlinks but I can't figure this out in Pages. I can link it to another point in my Pages document but I just need the text to pop up - not take the reader to another location. THANK YOU!!!!!!

Have you tried Word for Mac?
You will need to test if links survive export or printing to .pdf

How do I create a hyperlink to text within the same email?
It's not hard to do in the PC world, how about the Mac world?
I bought the book "Mac OS X 10.5 (ISBN: 978-0-321-50263-6) and it does not help with this matter but I've also asked the question at www.ExplainMyBook.com because I thought the book "Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard" might help me out.

not possible AFAIK. Mail html capabilities are pretty rudimentary and this is one of the things it can't do. You might be able to achieve it if you create an html file with such internal anchors in a some html editor, then open that file in safari and embed it into an outgoing email from there. i couldn't make it to work though when I tried.
You should probably stick with a different email client if you want things like that. I know Thunderbird can do it for example.

HT4075 I don't have any problems merging the documents by dragging, but when I try to save and open afterwards, only the last shown doc was saved, not the combined files I wanted to merge. I tried save and export, how can I create the file after merging?

Hi, I'm having trouble saving the documents when merging in Preview. I don't have any problems merging the pdf documents by dragging them in preview, but when I try to save and open afterwards, only the last shown doc was saved, not the combined files I wanted to merge. I've tried save and export, but none merge the documents after saving... how can I create the file (with all the pdf files) after merging?

That's a comment in the file. It has no effect at all.
