Pdf link dont work if document open in separate Acrobat window in internet explorer

Hi,
We have many pdf with different links between this pdf. The link type is "Open a file".
- If the fist pdf document is open from hard drive this links works perfectly.
- If the pdf document is open from the web site (http://website/doc1.pdf) and adobe reader is configured to open pdf in internet explorer it work also.
- But if the reader is configured to open pdf in a external window this link dont work. The link try to open the second pdf in c://Internet Temporary Folder/ as root instead of http://website/
Does anyone know a workaround ? I don't know if my customers have configured the reader to open in internet explorer or in a external windows...
Thanks for help !

If web browser integration is turned off, it really is turned off.
Adobe Reader simply becomes a "helper" application. The browser
downloads the file, puts it somewhere, and runs Adobe Reader. Adobe
Reader is not told anything special about the file and its origins, so
it cannot know that this was (before the download) a web file, or
where it came from.
A URL link might be the answer.

  • Documents open in separate Acrobat Window  Acrobat 9 Pro

    When I open multiple documents in Acrobat 9 Pro Extended, each opens in a separate window.
    In Acrobat 6 Pro, all files opened in the same window, & I could select which was displayed in the 'window' menu, or I could cascade or tile the documents.
    Can Acrobat 9 be configured to open multiple documents without opening separate windows for each? If so, can it be easily switched back & forth?
    Thanks in advance,
    Norm

    This is the worst thing to happen to acrobat, in my opinion.
    The clutter that it creates on my computer and the fact that i cant even see the document title when I have a bunch of them open (because the task bar is too full) is unacceptable.
    I never would have changed from Acrobat 8 if I had known, and now I cant switch back (company license).
    The latest thing i can find about addressing it is here:
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb405108&sliceId=1
    which was in november 2008....
    why hasnt any thing else been done about it?  I just spent 45 minutes being sent to different departments over the phone, only to be told to submit a feature request.

  • Configuration issue in IE as Document mode: 10 and User agent String: Internet Explorer 8

    Hi,
    I have a telerik rad popup window performing some input operation. The problem is when I use the configuration in IE as Document mode: 10 and User
    agent String: Internet Explorer 8, scroll bars appear in the window from nowhere. It is working fine with every other configuration of IE. I've also used a separate stylesheet for IE 8 but it won't apply in this case. 
    Here are the screen shots of the window.

    Please if anybody could suggest a solution for this weird problem it would be a great help.

    Hi,
    It seems we need to talk with the site developers to determine how the sheet would display with different IE user agent string.
    Regarding the user agent string changes, please take a check with the following article:
    Introducing IE9’s User Agent String
    The Internet Explorer 8 User-Agent String (Updated Edition)
    Hope this may help

  • Can't open a website that supports only Internet Explorer

    hi, i can't open a website that supports only Internet Explorer (high-q.co.il - which i need badly for my bachlor dagree)!! 
    my mac runs OS X 10.9.2 system operation. i cant open this site with: chrome,opre,firefox,safari...
    what should i do?

    Try changing your browser agent using the Developer menu your browser preference can enable.
    If that doesn't work, complain to your college dean that the website violates accessibility laws, and should follow http://www.w3.org worldwide conventions to ensure accessibility.  Do not enter any personal information if you are forced to use Windows to browse the website, as it may be insecure.

    Hi headshot, <br /> Sorry you are having problems.
    Are you seeing any error message or notification ? <br />If so what ?
    If the page fails to load try clearing Reloading with the Ctrl F5 shortcut to force loading without the old new cached files. If that does not help try cache and clearing cookies for that site.

    * [[Delete cookies to remove the information websites have stored on your computer#w_delete-cookies-for-a-single-site]]_delete-cookies-for-a-single-site
    Reload the webpage while bypassing the cache using '''one''' of the following steps:
    *Hold down the ''Shift'' key and click the ''Reload'' button with a left click.
    OR
    *Press ''Ctrl'' + ''F5'' or ''Ctrl'' + ''Shift'' + ''R'' (Windows and Linux)
    *Press ''Command'' + ''Shift'' + ''R'' (Mac)
    Let us know if this solves the issues you are having.
    Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
    Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
    To clear cache and cookies do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
    #Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
    #Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
    #From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
    #Now click the ''Clear now'' button.

  • 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.

  • Target for a .pdf  with the link target _blank does not open in a new window.

    I have a simple html document with links to .pdf documents all set to _blank but only one opens in a new window.  The others open as _self.  Changing the target doesn't seem to make a difference.
    Any idea as to why that is happening?

    The Template .dwt file is only used locally by DW itself, there's no reason to upload it to the server unless you intend to share it with someone. You have to upload each individual page that the Template updates, every time you update the template and propagate that change across the child pages.
    It would probably be better to use a server side include. That way, you could update one file then upload it and all of your pages would automatically carry that update...

  • Pdf links that work in XP won't work in Windows8

    I have 100's of pdfs created via msword/acrobat8pro with hyperlinks between the docs. These work fine on my old pc running XP, but the links fail to work in Windows 8. Links within docs and to the web work, but its the links between different pdfs that fail. Any ideas how to resolve this?

    The topics and page numbers in the table of contents of a document are linked to the referenced headings. The links work when I test them with Acrobat Professional.
    In Acrobat reader the links don't work.

  • Acrobat 9 pdf links not working from InDesign CS3. What is wrong?

    My links are working in my 40 page Indesign CS3 file using Mac. After I convert to a .pdf, some of the links are no longer going to the right location. They have either duplicated other links, or trying to take me incorrectly to my desktop or network. Can't figure out what is wrong.

    Links meant to  go to an outside website are supposed to be filled out in the following format : http://www.phillipmjones.net
    in Acrobat should look something like :  This is my personal website
    In Acrobat go go create you link then click on action:
    (I'm using my own personal website as an example)
    If you choose something else such as open a file then that is what it does.

  • 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

  • Why are my PDF files so big when I open them or when I print them out? I only see and print half of the document, didn't have any problem on internet explorer

    I was trying to print something from the internet and when I did what came out was half of the document. What should have been printed in 1 sheet of paper was printed in 2 and it was only half of the document because the letters and images were too large.
    I noticed that when I saved the document from the Internet to my folder the document was in half. I tried to save it again but it didn't work. I tried to fix the printer to see if that was the reason but still I continued to see only half of the document. I tried printing again but still the same thing happened.
    I thought it was a problem with my printer but then I remembered that the same thing happened with other PDFs files. I then tried the same thing on Internet Explorer and when I saved the document I saved the whole document not only half of it and the letters and images where not large like when I used Mozilla. I was also able to print the whole document in 1 sheet of paper.
    I don't how to solve this problem, thank you for your help and attention

    Hi efacg,
    Most printing issues are solved by resetting the Printing preferences. When you print from Firefox and you click on the down arrow, do you see Defualt and Firefox? Please make changes to the preferences here and preview the document.
    If this continues to be an issue please also see [[Fix printing problems in Firefox]]
    If there are any other questions, please do not hesitate to ask, we are here to help.

  • PDF Link Not Working - Can't Isolate the Issue

    I have a unique issue I can't figure out. The trouble
    shooting I have done so far is this: (1) I've recreated my Topic
    several times using old topics that work, ones in version control,
    ones not in version control, blank ones, and even from scratch as a
    New Project. (2) I've recreated my Word Doc and PDF. (3) I've
    uninstalled Robo Help 5 and reinstalled it. (4) I've uninstalled
    then reinstalled Adobe. (5) I've uninstalled then reinstalled MS
    Office. After reinstalling all of the above, I created the Topic
    yet another time.
    I took an existing Project which was initially created in v4
    with a PDF Link created in Word then converted to a PDF in Word.
    This topic was not in version control and I copied it onto my Local
    Drive. From my Local Drive, I modified the Topic to include all of
    my new information. I left the original PDF Link, however, to test
    it. Here are the results:
    A) The original PDF Link still operates just fine. It
    launches the PDF with no problem.
    B) The new PDF Links I am trying to create refuse to work no
    matter what I do. WHY? When I click on the PDF Link in my compiled
    CHM, I get an Internet Explorer Window with an error that the "Page
    cannot be displayed". I have tried this on a network drive and on a
    local drive.
    Are there any ideas or suggestions? Linking a PDF does not
    require rocket science. I have done dozens of them over the past
    couple years and never had this issue. All of my other hyperlinks
    are working just fine (ie to external CHMs) - just not to PDF or
    DOC files.
    1 thing I did notice which is why I uninstalled then
    reinstalled everything: I found the new option inside Word of
    ROBOPDF, and that is what I initially used. When I noticed a
    coworker did things differently, I decided to delete that,
    reinstall it all, then created the PDF the old way through the PDF
    Maker toolbar in Word. I got the same results.

  • In an InDesign book, how can I create links that work across documents?

    The hyperlinking works fine when it is contained within a single document in a book, however doesn't work across documents.

    Do you mean cross-references? You can do those, but they are known to be "fragile" and unreliable.

  • Hello, how can i modifie in the options, aplications, Adobe acrobat document, open with Adobe acrobat (in Firefox) instead of open with portable document format (default). Thanks

    I can'T open pdf links in another page, because in options, aplications i have in Adobe acrobat documents open with portable document format (default) and i must put open with Adobe Acrobat (in firefox) default.
    Where can i change the default?

    All you now have to do is use that variable to the value property of your text field... So add this at the end of your code:
    this.getField("Conference_Option").value = ConferenceOpportunity;
    Also, I would use MouseUp, not MouseDown.
