Opening Hyperlinks from PDF in a new browser Window

We have a web based (ASP.NET) tool to author HTML content. Authors can create/edit HTML content, preview, and save the file as PDF. A 3rd party component- abcpdf is used to convert HTML into PDF. The converted PDF form will be distributed to consumers.
The PDF typically contains Hyperlinks, text boxes and submit button.
Clicking the hyper link in PDF should open the HTML in a new browser instance. It should not hijack (overwrite or reuse) existing browser instance that may be active in users computer irrespective of browser setting. Changing the browser setting IE: Internet Option > Advanced > Reuse windows for launching shortcuts is not acceptable by users.
Please let us know the solution if any

Hi Sarah ,
You can right click on the link and choose properties and then in the actions tab you can select the desired action you want .
You will get a list of various actions specifying how and where do you want to open that link.
Try this and let us know how it goes.

Open PDF link in new browser window?

I'm viewing a newly created PDF in a browser.
When clicking an internal link, the linked PDF loads into the same window
I need it to launch in a new browser window.
I have set the link to "launch new window" in Word where this file originated.
I have also opened and resaved it in Acrobat 10 with preference "Open cross-document links in same window" deselected.
Neither of these setting have change the behavior though all documentation I read seems to suggest they should.
What am I missing here??
-Blake

That preference setting does not apply to web links and do not refer to a browser window, but an Acrobat window.
There is a JavaScript method that might work. Try setting the link action to something like the following script:
app.launchURL("http://www.example.com/", true);
This was taken from the example here: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.150.html
The problem is if a user has Reader 10 and protected mode is enabled (as it is by default), it doesn't work and opens the link in the same browser window.

Opening links on a pdf in a new browser window in IE

I am trying to get the links embedded in a pdf to open in a new browser window. I applied the follow javascript to the link's action:
app.launchURL("myUrl", true);
This works in Firefox, a new browser window opens, but not in Internet Explorer. In IE, it still replaces the pdf with the page being linked to. Has anyone come up against this? Thanks.

thanks for the quick feedback-
no, because my customer is using the IE 6. According to the system
requirements all these Acrobat/Reader versions should also run
properly under IE 6 http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=3796
I have a look in IE >> manage- add-ons and got the following Add-ons
for adobe
- Adobe PDF
- Adobe PDF Conversion Tool helper
both are enabled!
Do I need more?
can u pls check, if u have the following ddl's in the adobe home dir:
Acropdf.dll, Acroiehelper.dll,Gbdetect.dll and Pdfshell.dll
Thanks

Disable menubar and location from popup dialog in new browser window

How to hide the toolbar, menubar, location and status for the popup window (not inline, but new browser window style) using ADF 11g?
Just like HTML javascript:
window.open ('page.jsp', 'newwindow', 'height=100, width=400, top=0, left=0, toolbar=no, menubar=no, scrollbars=no, resizable=no,location=no, status=no')In ADF 11g, I have a jspx refered by a taskflow action with "dialog:" prefix, and I call it from a button like this:
<af:commandToolbarButton text="Add"
id="ctbAdd"
action="dialog:create"
useWindow="true"
windowEmbedStyle="window"
windowModalityType="applicationModal"
windowHeight="400"
windowWidth="600"
/>How to control the toolbar, menubar, location and status for the popup window?
Thanks in advanced,
Samson Fu

I tried it but not success. My code as below:
    public void handleAddLaunch(LaunchEvent launchEvent) {
        launchEvent.getWindowProperties().put("toolbar", "no");
        launchEvent.getWindowProperties().put("menubar", "no");
        launchEvent.getWindowProperties().put("scrollbars", "no");
        launchEvent.getWindowProperties().put("resizable", "no");
        launchEvent.getWindowProperties().put("location", "no");
        launchEvent.getWindowProperties().put("status", "no");The popup windows contains all the toolbar, menubar, location...
Is there any example or reference for the keys and values for getWindowProperties()?
Regards,
Samson Fu

PDF viewer into new browser window

Hello,
I use following code to open new browser window with PDF file. The URL passed to the method is link to SICF service which returns the PDF in the request with content-type = 'application/pdf'. New window is open with correct URL, but the content is not displayed - Refresh or Go button has to be pressed to display it. Don't you experience similar problem? Is this WD error or some IE security setting?
Thank you and best regards,
Ludek
lr_window = lr_w_manager->create_external_window(
      url = ld_url
      title = ''
      modal = abap_false
      has_menubar = abap_true
      is_resizable = abap_true
      has_scrollbars = abap_true
      has_statusbar = abap_true
      has_toolbar = abap_true ).
lr_window->open( ).

Hi Ludek,
Probably a compression problem. Have you turned off gzip compression for the pdf?
Btw, an alternate solution without having a separate handler is to use the cl_wd_runtime_services=>attach_file_to_response() method.
Best regards,
Thomas

Opening a bounded taskflow in a new browser window.

Hello,
I have links in my application that open the application in a new browser window.
window.open(/MFRAME/faces/adf.task-flow?adf.tfId=moduleDataMan&adf.tfDoc=/WEB-INF/flows/moduleDataMan/moduleDataMan.xml, "w"+new Date().getTime());
When I open the link in the new window all beans become with null values.
It used to work before a big list of bug fixes. But somehow this broke. Any ideas what can be the issue. No errors in the log when I open a new window. The old window is working without problems. Only one of the bounded taskflows is working after open in a new window.
Any ideas.

Open URL from Java in a new browser tab

Hi OTN,
Surprisingly can't find the implimintation.
In an ADF managed bean I retrieve String url. I need to open a new browser tab with this url.
Found this thread Open a url in a new window in the backing bean which shows using javascript "service.addScript(facesContext, "window.open(http://www.google.coml)");".
But in my case in doesn't work. The code is executed, but nothing happens. Maybe because the bean is called from a taskflow inline popup.
ADF 11.1.1.4
Thanks.

Well, I'm afraid that is not an option.
The goButton is in a table row. There are lots of rows so if I use EL for Destination attribute the URL would be retrieved for each of rows.
The method of URL retreiving is heavyweight operation which includes calling plsql functions, working with strings and others. So if I do it for each table row my application hungs and then I receive an exception of CPU usage.
That's why I switched to normal commandButton witch actionListener which retrieves url on click - only once. So I need to open URL from Java.

Opening Document Library PDF in a New Window (Sharepoint 2013)

Hello,
I have numerous PDF's in a document library. When the PDF opens in the browser, the PDF's contain links to various other sites; however, when the user clicks the link on the PDF from the document library, the link opens in the same window as the PDF. I would
like the link to open the PDF in a new browser window.
I have searched Google but cannot find anything for SharePoint 2013. We are hosting our SharePoint on the Office 365 package. I found one solution that is repeated on many forums, but I do not see the "Convert to XSLT data view" anywhere
in SharePoint designer 2013. The solution states:
"Edit the document library in SharePoint Designer.
1. Open the site in SharePoint Designer and then open the document library allitems.aspx.
2. Right-click the document library web part and select “Convert to XSLT data view”.
3. Locate the name column, you will see this tag “<A onfocus="OnLink(this)" HREF="{@FileRef}"….. ”, add “target=”_blank”” in tag.
4. After this, the documents will be opened in a new window."
I do see my allitems.aspx and can open that with a text editor. The contents of that file are:

"Go to URL" not opening in a new browser window

We are using FrameMaker 10 and RoboHelp 9 in a Windows 7 environment.
When we create hypertext links, we use the "Go to URL" command. According to the FrameMaker 10 online help, this is what the command is supposed to do: "Launches browser and displays the specified Web page."
Then we publish the content to RoboHelp's WebHelp.
When we see the hypertext link in the WebHelp/HTML output, it looks like this: http://www.adobe.com
When we click it, the Web page appears inside the content frame of the WebHelp. It does not open a new browser window.
We can manually go into the html file and look at the hypertext link. It looks like this in the WebHelp output:
<span class="FM_Link"><a href="http://www.adobe.com">www.adobe.com</span>
In order to manually change the link so that it opens the Web page in a new browser window, we can edit the link as follows:
<span class="FM_Link"><a href="http://www.adobe.com" target="_blank">www.adobe.com</span>
After we manually edit the HTML file, save it, launch the WebHelp, and click the hypertext link...it now opens the Web page in a new browser window.
Is there a way to create the hypertext link in FrameMaker so that the WebHelp output will open the Web page in a new browser window?
Thank you in advance!
Tim

Please see the previous posts in this thread to review how you create hyperlinks in FrameMaker that open the Web page in a new browser window.
The problem is this: If you publish the exact same file to PDF, the hyperlinks will not work.
The properties (syntax) of the hyperlinks in PDF output need to look like this: http://www.adobe.com
The hyperlink syntax in WebHelp (in FrameMaker) needs to look like this: http://www.adobe.com" target="_blank
(...so when they are published to Webhelp, they look like this: "http://www.adobe.com" target="_blank")
Other than going into either the HTML or the PDF output and manually changing each hyperlink URL syntax for the specific output, is there a syntax that opens a new browser window in both PDF and HTML with one single "Go to URL" command?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Tim

Add option to open swf in new browser window

Hello,
I have a small animation on a webpage. The properties are to
small to view all details. Can I add functionality to this swf that
the user can open the swf file into a new browser window. This
allows then for scaling to what ever size is appropriate.
Any suggestions??
Thanks!
