PDF HotspotsLinks DO NOT Work

I am following the Careshare tutorial from the Adobe
developers site. I've created the wireframe sample document,
including the 3 hotspots at the top of the document.
Per the tutorial I exported the Fireworks .png file to Adobe
Acrobat, yet when the file opens in Acrobat the hotspot links
created in Fireworks do not take me to the other pages of the
document.
All of the pages (3) are exported into the .pdf file, but the
links don't work.
Any ieas?
Thanks in advance.
Dan

I may have answered my own question.
When I first created the document I seleted all three areas
that were to have a hotspot. I then right clicked and selected
Insert Hotspot, and then selected multiple hotspots. I then
assigned a wireframe page to each hotspot.
Upon exporting to PDF this method DID NOT work, i.e., the
hotspots were not active in the Acrobat document.
However, I found that if I created each hotspot individually
using the hotspot tool under the WEB tools, and then assigned the
link to the proper page, the hotspots functioned as expected after
exporting to Acrobat.
I Hope this helps sombody else.

I need to know how to stop this from happeing and get it back to the way it has been working he last 6 months since i purchased this program.

Hi pissedadobeuser,
Does this issue occur with any particular web page?
Are you able to print the webpage to 'Adobe PDF' to convert it to pdf.
Which Browser version, OS version and Acrobat version are you using?

PDF Portfolio does not work with iOS Reader 11.3.2 on iOS 7.1.2

Well this is upsetting. I created a PDF form with several pages of the same form (it's a travel log).
My hoping to use Adobe Reader to complete the form and save back as a week at a time won't work.
I created the form using Acrobat Pro 9 from CS5.
Does anyone know if a PDF form in a Portfolio should work with Adobe Reader on the iPad2/
Also, what can I use that works with forms as a portfolio?
Ken

Pdf object postMessage not working in FF 22

Hi,
After updating my FF to 22, i seen pdf object postMessage function does not working. We used adbove livecycle intraactive pdf forms to collect the data from the user.
When user click the save button from the pdf, postMessage function called, but after update this not getting execute.
For your reference i include the URL which also had the same problem. I also tried without addons.
Refer: http://www.windjack.com/WindJack/Browser2PDF/brwsr2acroJS.htm
HTML to PDF => works
PDF to HTML => not working (in earlier versions it worked)
Thanks n Regards
Mathan

This is likely the fault of Livecycle Interactive. Most likely, Adobe has not yet provided an update for supporting Firefox 22. I would recommend informing adobe support about it.

Link in pdf-file does not work on Ipad

With my site www.bartkuijer.nl I offer visitors the free possibility to see (and download) sheetmusic, from music written by me. These are pdf-files. But they can not only SEE the sheetmusic; the music on that pdf-files can also be PLAYED. That's done bij clicking on a link in that pdf-file to a mp3-file of the music on my site.
This works fine on a pc. When I try this on the Ipad of my wife it DOES NOT WORK!
So my question is: how come? And what to do to make this work also fine on an Ipad.
This is important for me, because I want this sheetmusic to place as Ipad-apps for free.

It works!
But not with a pdf-file. The Ipad does not recognize links in a pdf-file.
Te solution is found by making a htm-file with emdedding a quicktime-player and images of the music. This is my first Ipad product. On a pc the player starts immediately; on the Ipad it has to be started.
Now I have to work on a solution to change this to an app

Hyperlinks in PDF, WORD, PPT not working in Safari on iPad

We have an intranet we are serving up for use on the iPad. The links to other documents in PDF, WORD, PPT work on my pc and laptop but not in the iPad. I have looked to see of there is a setting but the only thing I found was to allow pop ups which our site uses but not luck. The links are blue and appear they should work but don't. Any one else have this problem and how did you correct it?

We have a similar problem with links inside PDFs not working, but worse, our links are all relative, ie, only file names. This means that if you DO have an app that makes the links work, but which is not viewing it in the browser, the links will try to open the file, but it won't find it, since it won't have the full domain info.
I realize our users could put the full into on the links, but we chose to do it this way for the ease of preparation--we have hundreds of these files every month and there's no quick, easy or automatic way for the preparers to add the full domain info at creation time--it's 100% manual, even with copy/paste. It all works fine in IE on a PC, which is the overwhelming bulk of our viewers, so until recently when several board members got iPad2s, there was no compelling reason to make any changes. It wasn't broke

Hyperlinks in PDF preview do not work

Hyperlinks in the preview PDF files that people first see when they click a Send link do not work. Can this possibly be fixed? Some users may not want to go through the hassle of downloading the document and want to be able to use the full document from the preview screen.

You have to create one or more Character Styles to populate that menu.
Format some text the way you want your hyperlinks to look, (color, underline, etc.). With your newly formatted text selected, go to the Character Styles panel (if it's not visible, press Shift+F11), and choose New Character Style from the panel menu. Give it a name like "hyperlink" and click OK.
Now, when you create or edit hyperlinked text, your Character Styles menu will include the character style you created, in addition to [None].

PDF Preview Handler Not Working in Outlook 2010

I have Win 7 Home Premium 64-bit and Outlook 2010.
Everything was working fine, until a few months ago when the PDF Preview Handler stopped working. I got the typical message that others were having with the issue with Adobe Reader 9. I have Adobe Acrobat X Pro and have also used Adobe Reader X. I have tried the little registry fix app that is supposed to fix this issue, but it states that my registry is already correct. Has anyone found a resolution for this issue with Acrobat X and Outlook 2010? As a workaround I am using the Foxit PDF Preview Handler, but I have to reinstall it everytime Adobe Reader or Acrobat is udpated as for some reason Outlook then reverts back to the PDF Preview Handler, which is not working.
Thanks,
Merg

Nope, using 32-bit. And I recently uninstalled Acrobat Pro completely and reinstalled it due to an issue with it not updating due to having the "Error Applying Transforms" issue. After I reinstalled, I updated it completely. I suppose I can try uninstalling and reinstalling again, but that seems like overkill.

Preview PDF while loading not working in Reader 10

Hi,
a cool feature of Adobe Reader 9 was the "pdf preview while loading".
If I opened a large PDF-Document in the webbrowser the first few pages have been displayed while the rest of the document was loaded in the background.
This was very helpful because I was able to decide weather I would like continue loading or not.
This feature does not work anymore with Adobe Reader 10 and Firefox.
I have to wait until the blue progressbar is completed.
On Internet explorer it works.
Any tips ?
Thank You,
Andy.

The pdf security is not working in Flash Paper

Is anyone facing a similar problem.
The pdf security if applied with a passsword to select the
text & graphics, printing, etc does not work. It selects any
and every text in flash paper and pdf. Does anyone know how can one
prevent to copy any text or graphics ...

I have the same issue. My phone says the files are corrupt and they stay corrupt if I forward then from my phone. It like the phone checks for something in the PDF, when it never did before.

Again after last patch: Windows 64 - PDF preview handler not working

Adobe's PDF preview handler doesn't work unter Windows XP/Vista/7 64 bit. Because of that PDF preview e.g. in Windows explorer or MS Outlook isn't displaying PDF preview.
This issue has been discussed in this forum some months ago, and this page gives a solution that has helped:
http://www.pretentiousname.com/adobe_pdf_x64_fix/index.html#fixer
Instead of fixing this well-known issue with the last patch Adobe decided again not to fix. And after installing the patch you have to repair PDF preview handler again...

Hi Sree,
According to your description, your case related to Adobe PDF Preview Handler. This is third-party product. I am afraid this is out of our support. Please ask in their special forum
https://forums.adobe.com/community/adobe_reader_forums
By the way, after do some search, it seems not working for 64bit machine,
>> It is working fine in Windows 7 and Vista
Also work fine in win7/vista 64bit????
If your scenario is not working in 64bit machine, try to put "adobe pdf preview handler 64-bit fix" in search engine. Good luck.
Have a nice day!

Links in pdf doc are not working when viewed in Reader 9, but works with Reader 8

Hello,
When I view a pdf document using Reader 8, the links in the document work. However, when another user views the pdf document using Reader 9, the links do not work for them. Any suggestions?

Are they hyper links or are they spelled out (http://...etc)?
If they are spelled out, it could be because the person using 9 needs to select "create links from URL" in Preferences>General>Basic Tools.

PDF Document is not working

Hi,
We are migrated from xMII 12.0 to MII 14.0 SP04 . We generate PDF document. A html page calls a exacute query which calls a transaction.
In the transaction, a PDF Document object, PDF Bar Code object, Delete File object and Image Saver. Delete File Object will delete existing file in WEB://ABC/PDF folder and image saver will save the new PDF file in WEB://ABC/PDF folder. HTML page popup a window which will display the save PDF file. Another transaction which find the name the file in the WEB://ABC/PDF and pass this information to Delete File object.
In 12.0 it is working fine and in 14.0 implemeted new PDFActions.zip file as per note 1325997. Now for a user, I assigned SAP_MII_Developer PDFis generating. But other user with the same role as the previous user, the PDF page is not generating. Log error shows, java.io.FileNotFoundException.
The roles of the user are assigned to both the transaction.
Please help to resolve the issue.
Thanks,

Hi Raman,
Just give a try to below mentioned thing:
I was trying file drop functionality in MII 14.0 and I could not make it work until I cleared Default File Path property under System Properties screen.
It comes with ‘MII’ by default on it representing MII web folder. Once I left it blank my file drop on MII box and on the network started working.
Just something that has changed on MII 14.0

The default PDF viewer does not work

I understand Firefox has a default PDF viewer, but it is not working on my Mac OS 10.6.8. When I click on a pdf document, nothing happens.

When you click a link to a PDF you get a blank page, or a black background with an empty progress bar, or you get absolutely nothing at all?
Can you try changing your setting as described in the following article to launch the PDF outside Firefox and see whether that works? After that test, you can change back and try the internal viewer again. [[How to disable the built-in PDF viewer and use another viewer]]
Any luck?

URGENT: Interactive PDF some buttons not working

Hey,
I am having a big problem with interactive PDFs at the moment, evrything has been working perfectly until this morning it decides to go pear shaped - the day before the PDF is needed at a show tomorrow. I have made many interactive PDFs so I know what I am doing but this time I have tried everything and still not getting it to work.
The document is a 61 page, sectioned PDF with a mixture of buttons - go to destination and also next/previous page.
The next/previous page buttons work fine, but the go to bookmark buttons will not work anymore!
I have re-built all the buttons and bookmarks, but still having this problem. This was all running perfect for the last 2 weeks but now it won't work.
Any ideas?

2013 27" iMac on Mountain Lion
Creative Cloud CS6 (Indesign and Acrobat Pro)
Edit: Exporting to SWF works just fine

SOLVED
The problem was the document source name, has to match the document you are using. I was saving 3 x different files for 3 different purposes, and the bookmarks were getting confused.
Yay
