Pdf links inside another Pdf doesn't work

Hi,
I am using Adobe Pdf Reader X(10.1.0). I am creating a PDF with html links embedded in it.
Links to normal files works properly (Like server/idcontent/new/ir.html)
But links to another pdf file doesn't work(Like server/idcontent/new/ir.pdf). When clicked on a .pdf link nothing happens. But where as other links works perfectly.
Can any one help me whether I am missing any setting in my Adobe Reader.
Thanks in advance.
Ravi.

How exactly are you creating these files?

Can you force a link inside a .pdf to open the "linked to" document in a new window?

When I have a link inside my .pdf document - linking to another .pdf document or to a Word document - how can I force the linked-to document to open in a new window?
I have a web site (business internal, so unfortunately I cannot point to it). My HTML menu has links to .pdf documents - no problem. However, once I open those .pdfs, they contain links to other .pdfs and to Word documents. Clicking on these links, which reside inside my .pdfs, opens the "linked-to" docs in the same page. How can I force them to open in a brand new frame?
All of my .pdfs were originally created in Word, and in the Word versions, the links DO open into new frames. I am not sure why, when I convert them to .pdfs, they lose this feature.
Can anyone help?

Hi Magenta,
Would you mind reposting this question over on the Acrobat boards? You've posted in the AIR forum and you'll have better luck with this over there.
Thanks,

Linking to another PDF file

Obviously in Acrobat you can setup links to another PDF file. And I understand you can do that in Designer but as I can see, the only way is to do it via a URL/browser. Importing a PDF into Designer doesn't preserve the link. Looked in the documentation but I didn't find anything so far. Is this where one would use subforms? I just want a button to open another PDF file in Reader basically.
Thanks

The "Open File" action is limited in its ability to actually
kick off external applications. As a rule of thumb it is best used
to redirect the user to HTML documents - and of course, opening any
file can be problematic if the end-user's computer has no valid
"association" to the linked file-type in his/her machine's system
registry.
For instance, if an AVI file is targeted, it will be a
crap-shoot what application will be used to display it (if any). On
one machine, Windows Media Player might be opened to play the AVI,
and on another, perhaps a DiVX player or maybe even Flash (though
not likely).

I upgraded to Lion and now can't print PDF files and Acrobat reader doesn't work anymore. What can I do to get it working?

I upgraded to Lion and now can't print PDF files and Acrobat reader doesn't work anymore. What can I do to get it working?

If you upgraded and were using a version of Acrobat Reader that was legacy, that is PPC compatible, then you will have to upgrade to a version compatible with Lion as Lion no longer has Rosetta to interface with the legacy software.
I know that Acrobat, full version, 10 works with Lion...use it myself.

Link to another pdf file

Hi all.
I am using the Acer Iconia W500 tablet with Android 3.0.
I have a big problem with links in a pdf file, which should open another pdf file.
Is this with Adobe Reader impossible or is there a solution?
I have the following folder structure:
     -folder A
          -pdf file 1
          -subfolder B
               -pdf file 2
          -subfolder C
               -pdf file 3
In pdf file 1 there are two links, which open pdf file 2 or pdf file 3. In pdf file 2 and pdf file 3 is a link, which opens pdf file 1 again.
With my notebook and Adobe Reader X there are no problems opening pdf files from another pdf file.
Thanks for reading my problem and hopefully for solving it.
Fabian

Hi Fabian,
The pdf file you are talking about is a Portfolio (earlier called a Package File)? Portfolio files are basically pdf files in which we can have sub-folders or any other files (pdf, or, non-pdf)?
If yes, then we do have good support for Portfolios in Adobe Reader X.
Would it possible for you to share the pdf file you are concerned about?
Thanks,

Linked column with # sign doesn't work in report results

I have a 2 page query situation, whereas in the 1st page I have a wildcard query to find a product number.
This product number is set-up as link to run a report which opens in another page.
(Type is a STRING.)
Everything works fine unless the product number starts with the # sign.
I can run a report using this in a non-linked page, but it doesn't work in the linked page...?
Simple queries
Page 1
select
from
Products
WHERE (((upper(TOP_ITEM) like upper(:P1_SEARCH)||'%')))
and :P1_SEARCH is not null
(Link on Top Item - :P2_Search)
Page 2
select
from
Products
where Top_Item = :P2_Search
(This works fine if I enter the #[Product] into the text field)
Link doesn't work...?

You need to escape the "#" character in the product no and generate the link's HTML code in report #1 directly within the SQL query.
select ..
,'<a href="f?p=REPLACE(product_number,'#',''%23)
,'<a href="f?p=' || :APP_ID || ':200:' || :APP_SESSION || '::NO::P200_PRODUCT_NUMBER:' || REPLACE(product_number,'#','%23') || '"> Link</a>' product_number_link
FROM ..
{code}
<i> 200 is report #2's page
P200_PRODUCT_NUMBER is report #2's page item which is set on redirecting to that page.
Product_number is the column name of column with '#' characters
Change display type of product_number_link column to "standard report type"</i>

Insert pdf file into another pdf file keeps getting stuck

I am trying to insert a 5 page pdf file into another pdf file (both unsecured) and it keeps getting stuck at about 71%* conplete. I can't even get the file to show up on the screen so i can close it. Help?

I have tried several different files, and get the same phenomenon with each one –
1.     I open an acrobat file.
2.     I open a WORD file.
3.     I copy a sentence from WORD to the clipboard.
4.     I click on View in Acrobat, Tools, Pages, other options, insert from clipboard.
5.     Acrobat shows that it is copying, and when it gets to 67% it stops and runs and runs and then only way I can stop it is to go to the task manager and end task.
I tried refrying with a file and that didn’t work, and I can’t imagine that Acrobat was designed so that each time I try to insert from WORD I would have to refry (even if it did work).
Please help!
Thank you

Paste to another instrument doesn't work...

Paste to another instrument doesn't work. Paste function work only in the same instrument.
Everytime when I try to "CMD+V" Logic crashes...

Help us understand your problem.
What exactly are you trying to copy and paste?
If it's MIDI data from one istrument track in Arrange to another, this should work.
If you're trying to copy settings (ie a particular sound) from one software instrument to another, that's obviously not possible as all AU's (Audio Instruments) have different parameters and are unique, so their settings will only work for each instrument.

Zugriffsrecht means Access Right according to the translators.
martinamm:
You can't do what you want with iCloud. You will need to setup remote access to your main computer with VPS or some similar remote access application. With VPS you have an application running on your main computer turning it into a server and an client app on your laptop so you can access it remotely. There are many such apps out there, some probably more feature filled than VPS. You might post in the system forum that you're running and ask there.

link to migration assistant doesn't work. Where can I find it?

Do you mean the link in the article to Apple Support Downloads? It works for me, now, and should take you here:
If not, try this one: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1557
Sometimes an Apple server won't find the article you want immediately.

How does one copy a PDF file into another PDF document?

I am trying to copy part of a PDF file into another PDF document. So far, the file will copy but will not paste into another PDF document. Any clues?

You can't convert Photoshop to editiable InDesign (though there is a plugin from RecoSoft that claims to make editable ID files from PDF: http://www.recosoft.com/products/pdf2id/).
About the best you can hope for is to leave pixel information in the Photoshop file (where it really belongs) and place that into an ID document, then set any type in ID.

Link on my website doesn't work correctly on my iMac. It works correctly on Safari, and both browsers on my laptop.

Link on my website doesn't work correctly on my iMac. It works okay when using Safari. It also works correctly on my laptop using either browser.

We worked out my problem. My solution turned out to be: Firefox Preferences/Applications. Scroll down until you find "Portable Document Format (application)", click on it and use the dropdown menu to the right and changed "Save file" to "Use Adobe Acrobat Pro (default). I had trouble at first finding if the listing was under Adobe, Acrobat, or what so I used the search feature and found it immediately.
Hope this helps.

Pdf in a window inside another pdf?

Hello,
Im comfortable using the multimedia tool and like the way it works inside a pdf.
So does anyone know how to make it so that inside one pdf there would be a window that prewievs another (attached or linked) pdf in a certain area? So just like linking a movie or a 3d file but for linking another PDF-file.
Thanks!

You may find this cheesy, but...
Buttons in Acrobat are usually part of the form tool, but since buttons can be any size, you can “fake” a pop up window. First, a designer creates a one
page popup in InDesign and exports it as a PDF. Then, using the Button Tool on the Forms Palette, the designer creates a button with the popup PDF as the button’s icon. That button is set to hidden. Next, the designer creates a visible button that when “pushed” makes the hidden popup visible.
The file I'm attaching came from a demo I did a couple years ago. You can use it as an example of what you might need.
Hope it helps.

Forcing link in one web based PDF to open link to another PDF in new browser window

We have created a form using LiveCycle Designer ES2. The form is found on our website and is used by faculty to submit proposal information to our office. Depending upon the answers to questions in the form if they say yes we had a link to another form that we would like them to complete and submit with the original PDF that they are working on. The problem that we are having is that when they click on the form it opens the new PDF and all the data that they had entered in the original PDF is gone once the new form opens up. Is there a way to force the new PDF via the use of some scripting that can go along with the link, or via the use of a button that can force the new form to open in a new browser window? It is impractical for us to expect 1500 faculty members to change their browser settings to open new PDF's in a new window. We have removed the links for now and have just put in text that says if they select yes they need to go out and complete the additional form.
The form we are using can be found here: http://spo.usu.edu/files/uploads/SP-01.pdf
The first three questions on page two where we reference the other forms is where we would like to be able to add the links to the new forms and have them open in a new browser window. When the form is downloaded and opened in Adobe Acrobat/Reader the links functioned correctly, it just did not function properly when it opens in a browser.
Thank you in advance for any assistance you can offer in regards to this issue.

I used a button, removed the border/fill properties and underlined the caption to look like a URL.
The click event is...
// form1.page1.subform1.urlBtn::click - (JavaScript, client)
app.launchURL("http://spo.usu.edu/files/uploads/SP-01.pdf",true);
The PDF will open in a new window or tab, depending upon the browser configuration.

Opening a pdf from a link in another pdf shows always security warning

The problem occuers every time in the same document, even if i put "remember this action for this site for all PDF documents" with ALLOW.

I put the mark on "Remember this action for this site for all PDF documents" wit ALLOW
Next time I open same document, i get the same Security Warning.
How can I make this security warning dissapear?
Why doesn't it take my command for the next time
We use Windows 7 and the newest Adobe Reader 11.0
Thanks for helpful feedback

Hi same problem here but only on Windows 7 in Acrobat Reader. Full Acrobat on Windows and Mac ok, and Reader on Mac works fine too. I've got a pdf with links to other pdfs. On windows I have to click 'Allow' each time I reopen the document. Very annoying, especially that Mac versions seems to work just fine. Tom
