Preserving links in eBook made from Word 2010

I´m making an eBook - in PDF - from a Word 2010 document, using Acrobat Pro XI. (I recently became a Creative Cloud member, so for my next eBook I´ll probably use InDesign, but now it´s Word).
I´ve checked that the setting "Rich Content PDF" is located in the Settings folder, since I presume that´s the best setting to use for an eBook.
(The file contains one coloured jpg for the cover and some black/white illustrations in emf and tif formats.)
I have searched the web and of course Adobes own help sites for updated instructions on making eBooks (and securing them) with Acrobat, since the eBook media developes so fast these days, but I´m not overwhelmed by what I find.
I have to types of links in the book: 1) weblinks to the publisher etc. - and 2) document links in the Table of contents.
The last type is of course supposed to lead the reader to chapters, and they work just perfectly in the Word file, by means of field codes behind the pagenumbers and bookmarks in the document. All links are in the Word file activated by "click only".
PROBLEM: After converting to pdf, using the rich content setting, only the weblinks work! No reaction in the TOC pagenumbers. Why?

Which version of Acrobat are you using?

Hyperlinks in PDFs made from Word no longer work

PDFs made from Word documents containing hyperlinks used to be no problem. I can still make PDFs from Word (using the 'Save as PDF' in the print driver), and the links show up as underlined blue text, but they no longer work.
It's been several months since I last made a Word doc with links and successfully converted it to PDF in this manner, but I can't imagine what might have changed.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Try to redo the default browser (i.e make IE the default and then let Firefox do it again).

Blurry text in Acrobat X Pro when creating PDF from Word 2010

I created a PDF document from Word 2010 and while most of the pages and formatting looks fine, about 1/5 of the pages have blurry Arial 10 pt text (it looks as if it was Arial bold out of focus). Has anyone experienced this problem?

Thanks for the reply.
The artifacts scale with the pdf.
Below is the 'p' from "participation" and the 'a' from "Apparatus" at 1600% and 6400%

Importing a second Index from Word 2010 into InDesign CC

I am working on a 1000 page book. It was imported from Word 2010. Things imported messy but I am cleaning it up. The second index imported as text but did not attach to the reference in the text. The Index worked as did the table of contents. What can I do and how do I work with this. I have never had this kind of a situation.
Thanks

Make sure to open the track changes dialog and accept the changes, then do a Save As to rewrite the file.

I converted a 253 page document from Word 2010 to pdf using Adobe Professional 8. The pdf fike only had 251 pages. Why?

I converted a 253 page document from Word 2010 to pdf using Adobe Professional 8. The pdf fike only had 251 pages. Why?

Word documents don't have a fixed page layout; Word reflows freely if it wants. This isn't normally a problem unless things like typing page numbers is done; avoid that.

Quick Parts from Word 2010 not available in Outlook 2010?

Kinda feel daft asking this...
If I type a Autotext (Quick Part) in Word 2010 it doesn't seem to be available in Outlook 2010 and vice versa. Each program seems to be using it's own default template. Saving it to Building Blocks.dotx also makes no difference.
From what I've found looking around the internet it seems this is intentional and the only way to get me AutoText from Word 2010 is to copy the Normal.dotm to NormalEmail.dotm is this right?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Your question is not daft! You are right in that there are two templates that are used for Quick Parts. Indeed very annoying because why would you have to insert the same autotext twice right? Unfortunately this is how we stand now.

HP 722C prints blank pages from Word 2010 But can print successfully from Internet Explorer 9

I installed the patch from HP for my printer. I can print successfully from IE 9. However, blank pages are all I get when printing documents from Microsoft word 2010. My operating system is Windows 7 64-bit. home premium I do not get any error messages when printing. Any suggestions are appreciated.

I still cannot print from Word 2010. I can print from Adobe reader. I did uninstall and reinstall Office 2010. I still cannot print from Word 2010.

Unwanted background color creating PDf from Word 2010

I'm creating a PDF from Word 2010 using the built-in "Save as Adobe PDF" distiller. All of a sudden the created PDF has a pale yellow background, except for text boxes and images. I have no ide where the background tint came from. How do I get rid of it?

It's probably related to a transparency issue. Try selecting the background and deleting it using the editing tools - depending on what version of Acrobat you're using, you may find it easier to do this using the Content Navigation pane.

When creating PDFs from WORD 2010 I cannot get the TOC heading entries as hyperlinks

When creating PDFs from WORD 2010 I cannot get the TOC heading entries as hyperlinks. I used to be able to do this in WORD 2003. I tried to create a PDF from Acrobat by selecting File > Create PDF >navigate to the WORD file > select three checkboxes >
Any help with getting the TOC heading entries as hyperlinks?

Try to do it from Word using the ribbon.

Internal link to eq. numbers from Word

Uisng MathType in Word gives the possibility to make internal links to the numbered equations. Acrobat 9 pro converts them into internal links in the PDF file, while I am not able to do it with Acrobat 10 Pro or Acrobat XI (evaluation version). Is this my faut (how I can do it) or this feature is not existing in 10 and 11?

Hello,
Here are the two links to the Word and PDF files, if you want to try them.

Hyperlinks not converting when creating a pdf from Word 2010 to Adobe Acrobat 11.0.6

First off, let me say that these are not table of contents hyperlinks. I have created a document in Word 2010 (not a MAC) with hyperlinks to files residing on our company's intranet. In Word the hyperlinks work great but when I create the pdf, the links do not work. I have converted using both PDFMaker from Word and Create a pdf from within Acrobat. Yes, I have all the boxes checked regarding saving links. The links appear to work partially. Meaning that when I hover the cursor over the link, the pointy finger appears but when I click I get a pop-up message telling me the file could not be opened. Also, when I hover over the hyperlink, the address appears. So, I think it knows there's a link and it tries to open but can't. When I create the file within Adobe the link works - once. When I click on the link I get a pop-up window asking me if I want to save my file before closing. After my response the file closes and the linked file opens. However, when I go back into the file and try the hyperlink again, I get the pop-up telling me the file cannot be opened. HELP! I am at my wits end. After spending hours yesterday trying to research (I think I read every thread related to hyperlinks but I am not using a Mac, table of contents or Adobe 7 around which it seems all the prior questions revolve) and futily creating and recreating the pdf (as if doing the same thing repeatedly would somehow magically work) I am about to give up. This is a document that will be published to our intranet for use by employees which cross-references other documents to which they can refer for additional information. I would prefer to publish a pdf and not a Word document. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks for your input Bill. I've checked the preferences and "view large images" is turned on. It's not all of the images which are missing, only certain ones do not transfer over to PDF.

Text boxes in topics from Word 2010

I'm using RH 8 (technical communication suite 2.5): when I import a word document (Word 2010) all the topics are included in boxes. How can I correct this?

Of course.

Acrobat Pro 8.1.2 crashes when displaying pdf made from Word doc containing url text

Hello,
I and a few others in my workplace have a similar issue.
Acrobat crashes when they scroll through and view a pdf file that was created from Word. The Word document contains url text in its header to the effect of "visit us at www.blah.com ." They're running Acrobat Pro 8.1.2 and Office 2K Pro SR-1 on XP Pro SP2.
Even though the link is not an active link, (i.e. clicking on it does not open the web page), if I convert a document containing this header to PDF, Acrobat will not allow me to manipulate the file and will crash. When I take the same document and remove the web address, then convert from Word to PDF, I experience no problems with Acrobat (note that this is the identical file, but with the web address removed).This does not explain why Acrobat will work for awhile even with the web address in the header, then stop working. But it does appear to fix my problem with creating a PDF from Word, then manipulating it further.
Does anyone know how to allow for this text to exist in the header and still have a stable pdf file/acrobat behavior?
The pdf is attached.
Thanks....

To sum up, I've found that if a url beginning with www is in the Word document and then created to pdf Adobe will crash when viewing that pdf. If it is deleted from the Word document before creating the pdf, Acrobat will not crash when viewing that pdf.

Saving Files from Word 2010 into SharePoint 2010 document library deployed as a sandbox solution gives "Web page no longer exist" Error 410

Created a new SharePoint 2010 List Definition project, Sandbox deployment option. List Definition type: Documents Library. When attempting to save into the document library from Microsoft Word 2010 I get "The webpage no longer exists" error in
the File Save dialog
If I change the type of the solution to Farm solution it works as expected.

Hi,
According to your post, an error occurred when you used the custom Documents Library(List Definition using sandbox solution).
Please check whether you have removed <ContentTypeRef/> in the <ContentTypes/> tag of Schema.xml file in your project.
Here is a sample about list definition deployed as a sandbox solution, you can take a look at:

Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro adding a blank page on conversion from Word 2010

Hi, I'm hoping someone here can help. I'm converting a Word 2010 document to PDF using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro (version 9.5.4). On conversion to PDF, a blank page is being added, throwing the entire report off. In word, there is a Section Break (Next Page) at the end of the first page, and the text continues on the second. On conversion, it is after this section break that the blank page apears (i.e., between pages 1 and 2 of the document). I've been back and forth through the document, tried to use a Continuous Section Break instead (Word just converts it to a page break again), making sure there's only one break, etc., and cannot for the life of me figure out how to fix this problem. Any ideas?
Thanks
