Sticky Notes

Hi. I need to add hyperlinks to sticky notes, but I cannot seem to find a way. I can past a link into a sticky note, but then the link doesn't work.
Please Help, Much rage has ensued :|

You can't. The text entered against a comment can only support basic styles (bold, underline, italic) and not hyperlinks. It's a limitation of the ISO standard for PDF.

Sticky Note (Text annotation)

Hello,
I decided to add some sticky notes (text annotation) in my pdf document and I was surprised to see that the sticky notes were not printed. I used the "Document and Markups" option for the print and even in the print preview the Sticky Notes were not present.
Regarding the PDF Reference a sticky note is a Markup so it has to be printed.
Is it a bug? A normal behavior?
While I select the "Print notes and pop-ups" option in the Preferences - Commenting then the Sticky is printed (but also all notes and pop-ups

The Preferences > Commenting > Print notes and popups option takes priority when printing sticky notes - if it's deselected, they don't print at all. If it's selected, sticky notes will print in whatever state they're in (collapsed or open) provided they don't have a non-print attribute set against them.
Most people don't want stickies to print, as by their nature they are either collapsed (hence meaningless on paper) or will obscure some other part of the page. Text markups, stamps etc. can be printed without such issues, hence the above preference defaults to off.

How do I keep the sticky notes from shifting their placement as soon as I select File, Print?

Working with Acrobat Pro 9 and Windows 2007, I frequently use sticky notes to approve multi-page invoices scanned by another location. On the screen they appear where I put them - but as soon as I click File, Print with the printer "Adobe PDF" and "documents and markups" selected, the ntoes all shift to a static location on each page that overlays the invoice detail. I've tried multiple settings and defaults to no
avail. Any help is much appreciated.

Either don't rename upon export, or use the (original filename or) image number in the renaming template:
(see 'File Naming' section of export dialog box)

How do I search for sticky notes in a PDF doc?

Several people (at work) have commented on a 440-page document that I created, using sticky notes to write their comments in. When I first open the document, the sticky notes are all closed. The icon for a closed sticky note is pretty small and not brightly colored, so they're easy to miss when scrolling through hundreds of image-heavy pages. I am hoping that it's possible to search for each occurrence of a sticky note.
If there is no way to search for the notes, is there a command I can use to open all the notes in the file (in one action) so that they are larger and easier to spot?
Platform: Windows 8 PC
Version: Acrobat 8
If this is not a feature available in Acrobat 8, is it possible to do this in later versions?
Apologies if this is not the right community for this question, but none of the ones listed seemed like the obvious choice, and there is no "miscellaneous" or "general" category. If there is a better community for the question, please let me know.
Thanks,
Joyce.

Out the gate you've a problem.
The Acrobat 8 product family passed into "End of Support" many years ago (well before the release of Windows 8).
"End of Support" means -- well, just that eh.
The Acrobat 8 product family is not compatible with Windows 8.1, 8 or 7.
The Acrobat XI product family is compatible with Windows 8 / 8.1.
Regarding Comment and Mark Up Annotations:
With Acrobat 8 Pro use the "Comments List".
Same wit Acrobat 9 Pro, X Pro and XI Pro.
May be available with the various versions' "Standard" release.
The contents of a Comments List can be exported to a PDF report.
The filter an be used to display specific characteristics / attributes which then become the reports content when you output a report.
Having "8" the Help PDF file got loaded with the install of "8".
Use it to review the information provided on the Comments List.
Be well...

Mouse over pop up - not sticky note-can it be done?

I am curious if there is a feature in Acrobat where by mousing over an area you can get a pop-up that provides information about the area you have moused over - much as you get when you hold the mouse over an item in the toolbar. I have looked and tried but, other than sticky notes-which are not really what I want - I have found nothing.
Is that possible in Acrobat?
Would appreciate any info or ideas.
Joe

You can use the button tool to create a button and in the properties add a tooltip. That will show on mouseover.
Be sure and set the properties with no fill or border so it won't be visible.

"Create links from URLs" preference no longer working in sticky notes

I work with reading other people's sticky notes in Adobe Acrobat X Pro (now version 10.1.1). When they wrote URLs in the sticky notes it used to recognize them as links; now they're just plain text. My Preferences > General > "Create links from URLs" option is checked ON. I aso tried View > Tools > Document Processing > "create Links from URLs" and it added two links but only outside of the sticky notes. I am on Windows 7 Professional 64-bit. Thanks.

AFAIK, URLs inside annotations were never converted into actual links. I'm not even sure it's technically possible to do so.
It might have happened if the annotations were flattened and the text in them became a part of the static text of the PDF. Then the URLs in it could have been converted into "live" links, but not before.

Is there a good "Sticky note app that ACTUALLY put a Sticky Note on my iPad ( over my existing wallpaper images) on either the Home or Lock screens like how the Stickies app works on a Mac?

I have an iPad 3.
I tried two, One was a worthless piece of junk I wasted $2.99 on and the other is pretty good ($1.99) except is does not do a function I would like to use as advertised ( which is to create a sticking note that works like an app by creating an icon sized version of the original created sticky note, then clicking on an app icon size version of the originally created sticky note that you can tap on like an app and a large sticky note is supposed to appear. This does NOT work with an iPad.
Does anyone use a Stickies app for IOS that works exactly like how the Stickies app works on a Mac?
What good is a Stickies note app on iOS when it cannot put actual virtual stickies notes over the main IOS screens and wallpapers and remain there until they are no longer needed?
Does any one use a good stickies app on iPad? NOT iPhone or iPod Touch.

It really cannot be done in iOS due to the sandboxed security model of the operating system. No app can modify the "desktop" like that - they can only display their own "virtual" desktop when actually actively in use. so any stickie note app is the same as any simple note app - it must be open and active to display content. It cannot modify any screen but it's own when active.

How do I insert the logged in application username programmatically in sticky notes.

We have a multiuser application where different users can access the same PDF document and can add sticky notes,
The application uses Acrobat PDF Control for displaying the PDF content. Is there any option to add the logged in user's username through the program with the sticky notes?

This is forum for Adobe Acrobat issues not some open source project. You might want to contact the developer of PDF Viewer Control with your issue.

How to install Sticky Notes in Windows Server 2012 R2

I want to install Sticky Note in Windows Server 2012 R2. If this app is not available in Server 2012 then which is the
best "Sticky Note" application for this platform.
Thanks

Here are instructions for 2008 -
http://www.win2008r2workstation.com/sticky-notes/ I'm not sure about the legality of that, as I think Microsoft has some rules in their license about copying files from one distribution to another. You would need a lawyer to check on that.
Otherwise, a simple Bing search will turn up freeware apps you can download.

Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.4.6 Sticky Note Icons are huge and can not resize

My coworker is having a problem with the size of the Sticky Note (comments) Icon. It is huge and we can not resize.
When you open the icon, it takes up the whole page. We can change the Font size, but the actual icon will not resize.
The same document opened up from someone else, the icon views normal. We all have Adobe Acrobat Pro V9.4.6. Any suggestions on a fix?
Thank You.

JimJSC,
Your reply also helped fix a problem I had with not being able to resize sticky notes. My original display resolution meant that the resize symbols in the lower corners of the sticky note weren't accessible. In Acrobat X, the setting is under Acrobat, Preferences, Page Display, Resolution.

Question:In Adobe Acrobat XI Standard-sticky notes

Question: In Adobe Acrobat XI Standard-sticky notes created in the document pane are visible, but when i save the file and then reopen it they are listed in the navigation pane (model tree). Any thoughts ????
Any comments ?????
This did not happen in version 10.

Can you post to a URL with a snapshot image of what you're seeing? You can post the image on Acrobat.com for free and then share the URL here.

Sticky notes in Acrobat X default to off-the-page and extremely large

Hi!
I'm fighting an issue where sticky notes that I add to any PDF will always default to the far right (off of the screen) and they tend to be large (as in, the size of about 2 letter pages). Everytime I add a sticky note to a PDF I must zoom out such that I can see multiple pages on my screen in order to get to the corner of the sticky note and proceed to make it smaller. This is getting unbelievably tedious as I often review 100's of pages of PDF documents and make comments throughout. I've tried deleting all of my Acrobat folders in C:\Users\<me>\AppData but the problem persists. I did not have this issue in Acrobat 7.
I'm on Windows 7 Profession 64bit and am using Acrobat X Standard. I hope I do not need to reinstall acrobat as I will have to get IT invoved to do that.
Thanks for any help.

Printing Comments (Sticky Notes) in Adobe Reader 9

Hi,
I know this question has been asked several times before, but I haven't seen any resolution to this problem. Does anyone know if Adobe is working on a patch/ fix for this problem?
In any case, my question is this: how do I print comments (sticky notes) using Adobe Reader 9. The following are the responses I have already tried and that have not worked:
1. Select "Document and Markups" in the print menu. I have already tried this. It makes no difference. The document still prints without the comments.
2. Go to Edit > Preferences and choose the "Commenting" tab. There is no "Commenting" tab in Reader 9. You are probably thinking of Acrobat 9.
3. Edit the registry key. Too risky, and since we are working on the client's machine, this is not really an option.
Any other ideas? Thanks in advance!

Alas,
"Commenting" is not an available category in Adobe Reader's Preferences.
