PDF Links don't work in Flaspaper

I have a PDF with external links. However, when I use the
FlashPaper driver to convert the PDF to a SWF, it totally ignores
those links.
Is there any workaround to this?
L

sorry for the late response, my pc didnt want to let me post
anyway, i used this FlashPaperLoader component, cant remember
the website, but the package is de.betriebsraum, so maybe that
might help you find it. but if you want to just code a custom
loader for flash paper, use the MovieClipLoader class but youll
have to check for the existence of the flashPaper object within it.
heres the code using that component:
var loadListener:Object = {};
loadListener.onLoad = function (eventObj:Object):Void {
var fp:Object = eventObj.flashPaper;
fp.goToLinkTarget = function (url:String,
window:Object):Void {
// your custom action goes here
fpLoader.addEventListener("onLoad", loadListener);
fpLoader.load("flash paper document url", target_mc);
i could probably write up a non-component solution if you
need.

  • Some PDF Links don't work

    Structured Frame 7.2, Acrobat 8.1.2
    Some of my Frame xrefs work as links in PDF, some don't. All xref formats use elem rather than para, the jumps work in FrameMaker. These are the first PDFs we've created after moving to structured Frame. Any suggestions? Help please!

    Teresa,
    This sounds like a long-time known bug in structured Frame which I think may carry over into unstructured Frame, I'm not sure. The bug is that some PDF hyperlinks don't work if you don't include the target in the PDF bookmarks. For example, if your xrefs target a Heading3 element, but you don't include Heading3 elements in your bookmarks, Frame may fail to create named destinations for those elements and your links won't work.
    There is a workaround to this bug in my shareware XRef Wizard plugin, available at www.weststreetconsulting.com. It might be able to help... look in the documentation for "named destinations."

  • Pdf Links don't work

    Hello all,
    I'm working on my office intranet, and there are links on a pdf (which links to other pdf files, and they all make up our policy and safety manuals). It all works fine on a PC, but I can't seem to make the links work if I open it in Safari. And if I download the pdf, then the links bring up the error message (I assume because the other pdf files are not in that file path on my computer).
    Does anyone have any ideas about how I can make the web links work like on a PC?
    Lawrence

    Thanks for that. However, the links still don't work in Safari. Not sure why, but every link I click does nothing. It does change the cursor to a hand, which seems to indicate it recognizes the presence of a link. If I control-click the link, it brings up "Search in Spotlight," "Search in Google," etc. Not the usual contextual menu for a link. Any ideas?

  • Pdf links don't work for imported text

    Hi.
    I imported some common sections located in their own frame file into three different books.
    I tried this by reference first because I want to make changes only once, to the actual file.
    When I make a pdf, the toc links to the imported reference text don't work. Nor do links within the text to other locations in the text.
    When I import by text, the links work. But import by text defeats the purpose of having one source for multiple books.
    I appreciate any help on this.
    Bibs

    Unfortunately, cross-references in FM files imported by reference into other FM files ("text insets") are not converted to PDF links -- this applies to all versions of FrameMaker and Acrobat.
    Limited workarounds are to (1) convert the text insets to regular text (on a temporary copy that is discarded after the PS/PDF is created; this can be automated using FrameScript) or (2) use hypertext links to create the PDF links (these are converted properly even when in a text inset).

  • FrameMaker 8.0p277 Generated PDF-to-PDF Links Don't Work On Solaris

    Currently I create a PDF of a book index pointing to several guides. The company logo in each guide's PDF provides a link back to the index.
    All the links worked on Solaris & Windows OSs. Now they do not work on Solaris. I get an error saying, "There was an error opening this document. The file cannot be found."
    All files are located in the same directory and they are all there.
    The only thing that I have changed is the source was in FrameMaker 7 and it is now in FrameMaker 8. I use Acrobat 9 Pro Extended 9.4.6 and I have the latest updates for both Acrobat and FrameMaker.
    I did some more digging and found a difference in the generated postscript file.

    I am trying to get off of FM7 and it is counter productive to keep generating our final PDFs from FM7 just to get them to work.
    Has anyone else had this problem and know how to resolve it?

    Cross-file links in PDFs authored in FrameMaker 8 use Unicode-encoded file paths and file names, which are only supported in Windows Acrobat/Reader 8.x (MacOS Acrobat/Reader 7.x or later).
    As a result, cross-file links are not functional when the PDF is displayed in earlier Acrobat/Reader versions, even though the target PDFs files are present in the target location.
    While it is possible (through post-processing) to change the links so that they are backward-compatible, I suggest checking whether one of the Reader versions available for Solaris supports Unicode filenames and indicating that such a version is required to view the PDFs.

  • Upgraded to CS5; TOC Links don't work in the created PDF from InDesign

    We recently upgraded to CS5. When we convert our InDesign User Guide to PDF, the main TOC links don't work. The TOC does function from each chapter page but not from the main TOC. We have done our normal steps in Acrobat to link them. Same issue with various user guides that we have. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks

    Thanks for your reply. The problem is the whole page is one image and there should be several clickable areas which point to different links.
    To solve this we have put a textbox over the clickable area, disabled the background and stroke and then right clicked on the textbox and used the hyperlink option to turn the whole box in to a hyperlink.
    We tried several free PDF convertors which couldn’t handle this combination. Then we trailed it with the full desktop version of Adobe Acrobat Pro and it worked a treat. Unfortunately the client didn’t have that software so we signed them up to the online PDF convertor from Adobe and that isn’t handling it.
    Here's the sample document: Dropbox - sample-link.docx we have been doing the tests with.

  • When I email a newsletter as a pdf, the links don't work

    I am creating a newsletter that I want to email out and I have some text linking to webpages. However, when I send it as a pdf, the links don't work. Do I need to send it as a Word document? I don't want to have to send a document that large. Is there anyway to keep my file size small (ie pdf) and have the links work?
    Thanks

    Ah that is different.
    It may be you are just seeing a preview of the pdf in the email, which is why the link is not working.
    I would certainly not rely on people seeing even that. Most PC users do not see pdfs embedded in their email, just an attachment. Even Mac users see various results depending on how many pages the pdf contains.
    I am working on newsletter emails for a client right now and the lack of standards and inconsistent results in email clients is extremely frustrating.

  • My links don't work when I combine another file with the pdf

    My internal bookmarked links don't work when I combine another file with the pdf.
    The external links continue to work fine, though.
    This doesn't make any sense to me at all ... but I'm hoping one of you kind folk can help?

    I opened my file and instead of merging files I used insert pages and inserted all of the pages from the file I wanted.  Then I saved the file with
    the same name.  Attached is a rough draft of some helpful hints I put together.  This has been a very painful process for us to discover how to handle
    this and there really is not much help from Adobe.
    Instead of merging files you inset pages. In Acrobat select Document - Insert pages -From file. You can select all pages or some and where you want them inserted. After you do that save the file not save as and all of your links should work. If you combine files or merge files all of the links will break.

    I think it's something to do with naming, but I can't figure out what. This is because it asks to be saved and gives me a Binder no as the name. If I
    press Cancel at that point, I keep the file and the links. But as soon as I need to close it, it asks me again 'Do you want to save this file' and if
    I say 'Yes', I lose all the links, and if yet if I say 'No', I lose the whole file. So at some point it has to be saved but whether I keep the Binder
    no name when I save it, or use the original name, it makes no difference ... it is in the saving of it that it looks the functionality, and yet, if I
    don't save it, I lose the file.
    This makes no sense to me....I hope it does to one of you.
    For instance, Christine, how did you keep your file if you couldn't save it?
    Or have I misunderstood?

  • I'm trying to get a public link to my pdf file? I tried the system's process and the links don't work

    I'm trying to get a public link to my pdf file? I tried the system's process and the links don't work. I can't even copy the links I have to write them down and then enter them. Is anyone else having this problem. I've seen this question a couple times with no replies.

    Hi mariondouglas,
    Do I understand correctly that you've used Send to send a file that you've uploaded to Acrobat.com? What happens when you send to your own email address? Are you able to click the link in that email, and access the file that way?
    If you're unable to copy the email in the browser window after you've generated a public link, please clear the browser cache, and try again. Or, use a different web browser (for a list of supported browsers, see System requirements | Acrobat.com).
    Please let us know how it goes.
    Best,
    Sara

  • Microsoft Access report to pdf-hyperlinks don't work

    Hi,
    Does anyone have a solution to hyperlinks not working when a Microsoft Access report is converted to a pdf?  The hyperlinks work when I am in the Access report, but once I convert to a pdf (Acrobat 9), the links don' t work.
    Thanks,
    Jamie

    How did you convert? In looking at the PDF Maker options for AA8 in ACCESS 2007, there does not seem to be a link button in the preferences. That may the issue and I do not have a solution for that.

  • Play Slideshow and Subscribe links don't work in IE

    Hi, I published a site with the newest version of iWeb and the Play Slideshow and Subscribe links don't work for my friends who use IE. Also, only some of the pictures will open when clicked. Many of them do nothing when clicked.
    Here's an example:
    http://web.mac.com/jconstant/Scotland/Golfing.html
    The site works with Safari and Firefox (both Mac and PC) but people with several different versions of IE experience the same problem.
    Any ideas on how this can be fixed?

  • Some links don't work in Safari

    I ran a whole bunch of software updates a while ago (funny, after the entire process, nothing actually updated... I had to run it again later), and somehow, in the process, something went wrong with Safari. Now, some links don't work. It's mostly links in the content portions of webpages. For example, things like the Store/Mac/etc buttons at the top of the Apple site work fine, but things like links in forum signatures don't. I have to open them in a new tab. I tried updating Safari, but it didn't fix anything. I've tested Firefox and Camino and they work fine, but Safari is my browser of choice, so this is pretty irritating. Any ideas as to what's causing this and how to fix it?

    You might try installing a fresh version of SafariStand and see if you still have the problem with dead links. I'm not familiar with the 'Quick Search' feature but you could have a look at Glims. Don't try to run both Glims and SafariStand together.

  • My in-page html links don't work in Firefox.

    I've made som links within the same page in HTML, and they don't function in Firefox, though they work just fine in IE. I've already tried everything on this page: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-and-diagnose-firefox-problems?esab=a&s=links+don%27t+work+in+firefox&r=19&as=s
