PDF filename appears in website text

I have linked pdf documents through the Inspector > File link but the filename appears in the website and not the text that I highlighted.
How can I hide the filename and just have the text as a hyperlink

Susanna ~ Perhaps I've misunderstood the problem, by rather than hiding it, you could simply change the filename to the text you want. You'll have to undo the current file hyperlink and re-do it with the new filename.
If you need to post a screenshot of something to illustrate what you're talking about, go here:

...upload your screenshot and from the resulting page, copy & paste the *"HTML code for webpages"* into your post. Switch from Compose mode to Preview mode to check that the clickable thumbnail works before posting. And for how to take a screenshot, _see here_.

  • Dynamically bind website text field values to PDF document

    Hi there,
    I am in search of a step by step tutorial on how to generate a pdf document based on values from website text fields.
    I have a form produced in Live Cycle Designer ES3 and a website in which we insert test results for our company to a MySql database.
    My thoughts was that when we have inserted values on the website we could have a link to the pdf document and the same values would
    somehow magically appear on the pdf. Have read somewhere that this can be done with XML and the use of different 3rd party programs.
    Is this possible?
    What approach would be the easiest? Perhaps someone knows about a tutorial on the matter?
    Data is stored from PHP website to MySql database. Website produced in Dreamweaver CS5
    Thanks in advance for any tips/help!
    Regards,
    Christian

    It's possible with an XFA form as well as an AcroForm, but to do the work on a server additional software is needed as you mentioned. Adobe's offering is in their LiveCycle lineup and possibly . Others from third-parties include FDFMerge, PDFlib, iText, Debenu Quick PDF Library, and others. The idea is you merge the data with the PDF on the server and serve it up or save it on the server and provide a link on the HTML page that's returned. Documentation for these libraries will include samples, but you'll also have to learn how to do this securely if that's important for the system you're putting together.

  • While generating PDF from webpage or website some of the images/texts doesnt show up in PDF. Also, there are a lot of formatting inconsistencies.

    Creating, Editing & Exporting PDFs ! ! !

    Can anyone please help, the websites hosted with us are developed on adobe CQ5.4 content management tool and when they are exported to PDF some of the images / texts doesn't get generated in the PDF. Also, the css /theme doesn't get generated resulting in formatting inconsistencies.
    However, if the same website is generated using some online PDF converters all Images & texts are coming fine with correct formatting.
    Is this issue due to using CQ CMS as that has a lot of components or is there a limitation with Acrobat XI pro trial version or anything else ?
    Appreciate if some one could provide inputs.
    Thanks

  • I want to have a unique reference appear on the footer of each printed version of a pdf printed from my website - is this possible?

    I want to have a unique reference appear on the footer of each printed version of a pdf printed from my website - is this possible? If so which version of Adobe do i need?

    If you want it to maybe happen some of the time, if people use the right browser and software and system, you can use JavaScript.
    If you want it to happen reliably, you need server software to add the stamp before the file is served, integrated into your web site's CGI/ASP/PHP or whatever. Probably not an option with shared hosting.

  • How to create a pdf/a-1b with a text field

    hello, I'm trying to execute a very simple task: create a pdf/a-1b containig a text field.
    using Acrobat XI pro, I created a simple pdf form with 1 form field of type text , then tried to save as pdf/A-1b. The pdf is saved but the form field is removed from resulting pdf.
    Here in detail the steps I made:
    0) configure adobe pdf printer to save as pdf/A-1b
    1) creat a test.txt with notepad
    2) print using acrobat pdf printer
    3) open the generated pdf with Acrobat XI
    4) in 'Standards' panel I see that pdf conform
    5) now go to 'Tools\Modules' and 'Modify'
    6) add a textbox field
    7) exit from 'Modify' mode and save
    8) in 'Standards' panel I see that pdf doesn't conform.
    9) I opened the preflight tool and see two errors
         a) "XMP property for a page object not predefined and no extension schema present".
         page reports the following Trigger values:
         - Extension schema is present in XMP: is not true
         - Property exists in PDF/A Standard: is not true
         b) Form field does not have an appearance dictionary
         page reports the following Trigger values:
         - Form field has an appearance dictionary: is not true
    I'm quite new to Acrobat: simply downloaded the Actobat XI evaluation version, created the file and added the text field. No special settings nor other configurations was applied,
    I'm wondering if someone else was able to reproduce this behavior.
    thank you for any comment

    First, about invalidating the PDF/A. I was told, but never had this confirmed nor tested, that editing a PDF/A will automatically cause the PDF/A status to be deleted from the file. This is because Acrobat does not know about the compatibility of every edit with every current (and future) PDF subset standard, so it is safest just to remove the indicator - if you turn off Adobe's PDF/A view mode which will prevent editing anyway.
    Now, you have a problem with the signatures. Possibly a very big one. Your description "2) fill the text field with some annotations and then sign the signature field 3) save the pdf" is a little too separated. At the time a file is signed it is saved, the hash calculated, and written to the file. So signing and saving are just one action. Yet an unsigned digital signature needs, it seems to me, no appearance.
    I think the solution is a simple one. Sign it, but not with a signature field. If it is PDF/A when you start it is probably PDF/A when you finish. Signature fields seem a distraction and obstacle to the important thing, signing.

  • Unable to view pdf files sourced from websites

    Hi
    I have previously had no trouble viewing pdf files from various websites, however am now unable to.  It appears to be loading and then just comes up with a blank screen.
    I am able to view pdf files which have been emailed without problem.
    I have removed Acrobat Reader & reloaded but this has not helped.
    I am able to view pdfs on our laptop & ipad and the settings appear to be the same.
    Does anyone know what I can do to resolve this problem?
    Thanks!

    For Safari, you need to remove the adobe pdf plugins which Adobe apparently screwed up.  You need to remove:
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/AdobePDFViewer.plugin
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin
    I think you can "get away with" removing just the second one.  But both for sure should allow you to open pdf's in a browser (all browsers).
    If you are not using Safari the above will work for other browsers too, although in FireFox, you could just disable the use of those plugins from within Firefox (Tools menu --> AddOns --> Plugins).

  • Windows Mail App: Links appearing as plain text.

    Some of my emails are not properly displaying web links through my Yahoo account.  For example:  I am personally subscribed to a website known as Slickdeals (http://slickdeals.net), and none of their Deal Notifications have active links within
    the Mail app.  Instead, website addresses appear as plain text, even though the same links work just fine when logging into my Yahoo Mail account through IE or Google Chrome.
    How can I fix this issue?  I actually love the Mail app, but this is simply a deal-breaker for me if it can not be amended.

    website addresses appear as plain text, even though the same links work just fine when logging into my Yahoo Mail account through IE or Google Chrome.
    That could just be a difference between E-mail client treatment of text strings which look like URLs but are in HTML and therefore are not links.   Different E-mail clients also provide different functionality in support of such strings when Plain-text
    messages are involved.
    Notice that now IE10 has a helpful right-click Go to copied address command to help reduce the inconvenience of such a situation.

  • Converting FM to PDF results in thumbnail-sized text area in the PDF

    I'm having an issue with converting FM files to PDF. I'm using all the same settings I had been using previously, but now my PDFs appear with the text and images smooshed together in a thumbnail version of the source page. The PDF page size is 8.5 x 11, which is the size of my source FM file. So the thumbnail appears in the middle of a regular sized page in the PDF. (I'm sorry this is difficult to explain what's happening, which is probably why I can't find anything after searching the forums).
    Does anyone know what is going on? I've got an aggressive deadline and troubleshooting this issue is getting me no where.

    To help out in trouble shooting, could you supply details on your FM and Acrobat versions, and your OS?
    Also if you're using the full version of Acrobat, or the limited version that ships with FM.
    And at a really basic level, is your system default printer set to the Acrobat printer.
    And in FM, on the Print dialog box, is there any chance that you have the Thumbnail option activated?

  • HOw do I create a new PDF file that incorporates the text changes I made in the previous PDF file?

    All of my edits appear properly in the saved file but as pop-ups etc. that cannot be seen when I print a copy.
    This seems like an obvious thing to want to do, but I cannot find out how to do it from any of the documentation (including video tutorials).

    Something to try:
    Create a Comment Summary report (a PDF file).
    There are several approaches that can be used.
    --| Work out of the Comment List (Comments > Comment View > Show Comments List or click the overlapped comment bubbles at the bottom of the Navigation panel)
    --| Comments > Show Comments List
    --| Comments > Summarize Comments
    --| Comments > Print with Comments Summary
    In the Summarize Options dialog, select the desired layout, paper size, how comments are to be sorted and font size.
    Select Include All comments. If you want to sort by review status, author, comment type, etc then go into the Comments List.
    The tool bar provides various means of configuration.
    When the Print dialog is present, under the "Properties" button (upper right), use the drop-down menu for 'Comments and Forms' to select "Document and Markups".
    The imprint on the paper will have the PDF page content and annotations (comments) provided in the PDF by use of the Text Edit tools.
    So, you can provide the text entered into a Text Edit's pop-up two ways.
    First - You have the PDF of the Comments Summary Report.
    Second - You have the hardcopy of this PDF.
    Of note is that, with Adobe's Tech Comm Suite, you can author in FrameMaker or MS Word, output a PDF for comments and review, then bring these comments back into the source authoring file.
    Be well...

  • Saving a PDF document from a website

    When a bank has a document for you on its website, when you click the link a PDF document appears on the screen.  There isn’t a menubar on the document, however when you hover the mouse cursor over the document, this toolbar appears
    It’s obviously supposed to allow you to save, print, scroll, or adjust the magnification of the document, but nothing I do to this toolbar does anything. I’ve tried right and left clicking on the toolbar, ALT clicking, CTRL clicking, and SHIFT clicking and nothing has any effect. I end up right-clicking somewhere else on the document and printing it to a printer connected to my computer when I’d prefer to save it as a PDF document. Do you know how to use this toolbar?  If you know the answer, please feel free to email me a [email protected]  Thanks for your help.

  • 6i PDF filename while saving

    Hi all,
    I have report6i and we are generating reports in PDF format.
    While saving the PDF file name contains url, how
    to format PDF filename?
    Please help urgently.
    thanks

    Hi,
    When you use destype=CACHE, the desname is disregarded. The reason is that the PDF file name does not matter when it is opened in the browser. It only makes sense for users to specify the filename when you are "saving" the file. So that is why desname value is taken when you use destype=FILE.
    If you want the PDF to first appear in the browser, and then you want to save it with a particular name, just choose File > Save As from the browser or from the PDF toolbar.
    While saving the PDF file name contains urlI guess you just need to manually overwrite this with the file name you want.

  • Submitting forms as PDF - filename attachment

    Hi there, I created a form with a submit button that sends the pdf fine. This is a rather minor cosmetic thing, but the trouble is when the file attachment appears, the filename includes all the “%20″ in place of the spaces. So when I send the pdf file, the filename on the attachment appears as “SOP0xx%20Change%20Note%20Procedure.” How can I make the attachment's filename appear normal without all the "%20s"?
    Using LiveCycle Designer 8.2.1 in conjunction with Acrobat 9.3.2 Pro.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Here is a form with three email buttons. The first two will return the form in PDF format. The third will return the data as an XML file. In all three cases the email attachment name is not affected (eg spaces in names, without replacement with %20). Give this a try and see what happens: https://acrobat.com/#d=2W4mi8OiEHBYfsXEWJcMcA.
    If it still inserts the %20 then I think it is an operating system / email client issue.
    I have tested in a Windows environment using MS Outlook 2007 and a Mac environment using MS Entourage 2008.
    Good luck,
    Niall

    I need to know why this crosshatching appears over the text when I print the PDF

    If you use the same Adobe Reader versions with the same PDF on Windows 7 and XP, then I would expect the outcome to be the same.
    Is this a local or online PDF?
    If local, is the file really exactly the same?
    If online, in what browser?
