Internal pdf links not working in chrome and firefox

I have some PDF files that I am adding links to additional PDF files that are located in the same folder on our webserver using Acrobat Pro XI. The links work fine in IE and the other PDF files open up and display well in the IE browser, but the links don't even show up in Chrome and will not open in Firefox. Further, the links in Safari, deliver an error message pop up saying the file could not be opened. If you click OK, the file does open. Also, in Acrobat > Tools > Add or Edit Link, I can change the properties to "Open File" and pick the "Open in New Window" option, but when I save the changes and come back, the option has automatically changed back to "Execute a Menu Item" and of course, the file I'm linking to does not open in a new Window.  These files were originally created in Word by another person and the person who converted them to PDF added fillable form fields throughout the document prior to converting to PDF. The links I am adding are being added using Acrobat Pro XI in the PDF file. Should we insert the above-mentioned links in the Word docs prior to converting to PDF to ensure the links work in all browsers, or are these browser issues common to all internal PDF links?
Please help!
Thanks,

Make sure that you are using the Adobe PDF NPAPI viewer for Chrome and Firefox.  Both Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox now have their own default PDF viewers.

  • Cross browser testing : Modifier Keys playback actions not working in chrome and Firefox

    Hi,
    In my work flow I have to select multiple items in list.So I have recorded 'Ctrl+Click' action to select list items.In Chrome and Firefox it is not selecting multiple Items.
    Even Ctrl+A,Ctrl+C,Ctrl+V also not working in chrome and Firefox.Complete modifier keys support is not observed in chrome and Firefox.Let me Know how to automate modifier keys actions in cross browser?
    Regards,
    Nagasree.

    Hi Nagasree,
    Welcome to MSDN forums.
    First,please make sure the Chrome and Firefox is supported by cross browser testing.
    Latest version of Chrome and Firefox supported by cross browser testing are Chrome version 38.0.2125.111 and
    Firefox 33.
    I doubt whether Chrome and Firefox in cross browser testing don’t support automating modifier keys or there is anything wrong on it if you are using supported browser. Since this issue is related to the Extensions tool
    Selenium components for Coded UI Cross Browser Testing, if possible, I suggest you post this
    issue here, click “Q AND A”, and then you could post this issue there, you would get dedicated
    support there.
    Thanks for your understanding.

    can you be more explicit in explaining what you want to achieve and what is not working? You mean that the tab menus are not getting in focus using the tab key? Have you tried setting clientComponent=true on them?

  • Internal PDF links not working in AIR

    I have an AIR application that accesses and opens PDFs of lesson plans.  Works great.  However, when opened in AIR the internal links between PDF files no longer work, it just generates an error.  Is there an easy solution to this?
    Thanks in advance...

    Thanks for the quick reply.  AIR 1.5, Reader 9.  I have attached a file that
    has this issue.  If you select the first link in the menu "Lesson 1.1", then
    scroll down to the bottom of page 4 of the resulting PDF, there will be a
    link to "Lesson 1.1 Teacher Notes".  The error happens there.  It should
    open the file that is the second link in the menu.  The error returned is
    "Could not open file "Lesson1_1_TeachersNotes.pdf""  This works fine when
    previewing the original html setup (built in Dreamweaver) in Internet
    Explorer, so the links worked before.  They just no longer work when opened
    in AIR.
    Thanks,
    Wes

  • RTE not working in chrome and mozilla

    Hi

    Any help weill be appreciable
    Thanks
    Veena

    Hi Sham
         After lot of debug i found out the following issues
    In RTE if we put styles plugin only this issue is happening
    The issue happens because the RTE is getting disabled because of the following in RichText.js
    if (CQ.Ext.isIE) {
                var editorSheet = this.doc.createStyleSheet();
                for (cssIndex = 0; cssIndex < cssCnt; cssIndex++) {
                    styleToAdd = cssToAdd[cssIndex];
                    for (sheetIndex = 0; sheetIndex < styleSheetCnt; sheetIndex++) {
                        styleToCheck = styleSheets[sheetIndex];
                        rules = styleToCheck.rules;
                        ruleCnt = rules.length;
                        ruleToCopy = null;
                        for (ruleIndex = 0; ruleIndex < ruleCnt; ruleIndex++) {
                            ruleToProcess = rules[ruleIndex];
                            ruleText = ruleToProcess.selectorText;
                            if (ruleText == "." + styleToAdd) {
                                editorSheet.addRule(
                                        "." + ruleText, ruleToProcess.style.cssText);
                                break;
            } else {
                var styleDef = this.doc.createElement("style");
                styleDef.type = 'text/css';
                var cssText = "";
                for (cssIndex = 0; cssIndex < cssCnt; cssIndex++) {
                    styleToAdd = cssToAdd[cssIndex];
                    for (sheetIndex = 0; sheetIndex < styleSheetCnt; sheetIndex++) {
                        styleToCheck = styleSheets[sheetIndex];
                        rules = styleToCheck.cssRules;
                       ruleCnt = rules.length;
                        ruleToCopy = null;
                        for (ruleIndex = 0; ruleIndex < ruleCnt; ruleIndex++) {
                            ruleToProcess = rules[ruleIndex];
                            if (ruleToProcess.type) {
                                if (ruleToProcess.type == CSSRule.STYLE_RULE) {
                                    ruleText = ruleToProcess.selectorText;
                                    if (ruleText == ("." + styleToAdd)) {
                                        ruleToCopy = ruleToProcess;
                                        break;
                        if (ruleToCopy) {
                            cssText += ruleToCopy.cssText;
                            break;
                styleDef.appendChild(this.doc.createTextNode(cssText));
                headEl.appendChild(styleDef);
    The above lines are from 650-701 in RichText.js of CQ5.4 . They have handled the code for IE seperately from lines 650-670
    The error is happening in line number 679 ; Where the ruleCnt is returning null for some sheetIndex and so the code is breaking and the RTE is disabled.
    If i add the following line of code
    if(ruleCnt == null){
    continue;
    just after line 679 . This issue seems fixed. But i think it is not the proper way to fix it and it is only a temporary fix. I dont know if it is a CQ issue.
    Does any one have any solution for this.
    To replicate the scenario
    Create a rtePlugin in ur richtext widget
    add a styles dropdown with styles in it
    run this in chrome or any other browser except IE
    If you have a proper solution please let me know
    Thanks

  • Commandmenu items highlight is not working in IE8 and firefox

    HI All

    PDF documents are hosted in an ActiveX or netscape plugin control which have their own printing functions.
    Start>Adobe Reader>Edit>Preferences - to adjust what functionality the PDF document viewer addon displays (menus etc).
    Tools>Manage Addons>Show all addons
    make sure you have both the x86 and x64 versions of your PDF reader Active X control installed and enabled. I would recommend also that you update to the latest version of the vendors' (Adobe?) plugin.
    Possibly you have disabled scripting of ActiveX controls in the IE security zone that your parent page maps to. Also there is an IE security zone feature that prevents navigation to a domain in a zone of lower integrity.
    Tools>Internet Options>Security tab, click "Reset all zones to default".
    when asking developer related questions it is helpful if you can include a link to your website.

  • PDF Submit not working in Chrome & Safari

    I have a PDF with form fields added as well as a submit button, The action on the submit button exports all fields to a page on the server as HTML. This works fine in Firefox and IE but does not work in Chrome or Safari. Is there any known workaround to this?

    The PDF is imbedded in a web page - they are forced to open in a browser. There they are required to fill in the forms fields and submit. Here is an example:  https://www.benefitfront.com/Applications/ABCCompany_Anthem_Medical_23_BZUFP.pdf

  • Browse sequence not working in IE 10 - works in Chrome and Firefox

    Hi all:
    I am using RH10 and generating webhelp. I have applied the recent fixes for webhelp.
    The browse sequence does not work when the webhelp is displayed with IE 10. It works when the webhelp is displayed in Chrome and Firefox. Index, Search and Glossary are working in all three browsers.
    Does this sound familiar to anybody? It seems to be a different problem from the one that was addressed by the recent fixes.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

  • Isdefined not working on chrome and safari

    Hello all,
    I have a simple coldfusion form which consisits of 2 pages
    The first page contains a form with a button inside:
    <cfform name="inputform" method="post" action="savetrap.cfm">
         <input type="submit" name="newrec" id="newrec" title="Start a new application" value="Start a new application" />

    The second page, checks to see if the user clicked the button:
    <cfif (isDefined("form.newrec") AND form.newrec eq "Start a new application")>
          I have been clicked!   
    </cfif>
    Now this seems to work on my internet explorer, OPera and Mozilla browsers but fails to work on Chrome and Safari.  Can anybody help me in fixing this issue ?
    Many Thanks,

    You don't say what's actually happening different between what you consider to be "working" and what you consider to be "not working".  So it's difficult to say too mucht hat's sensible about this.
    One sensible thing to say si that CF code runs on the CF server, and has no interaction with the browser at all, so IE, Opera, Chrome etc have no idea about CF.  So whatever is going wrong, it's not what you think it is.
    Give an adequate amount of detail, then we might be able to help you.
