TOC in pdf links only jump to a page!

The auto TOC produces a TOC in a pdf. But the links are to a page only, they do not scroll down. Is it possible to create links that will scroll?

I assume by TOC in a PDF, you mean bookmarks on the Bookmarks panel. The auto TOC in InDesign cannot be changed. You can (manually) change the bookmark destination in Acrobat Pro using the Bookmark panel.

When I convert a document from wordperfect to PDF it only converts the 1st page and ignores the othe

When I convert my wordperfect document to PDF it only converts the 1st page and does not even show the other pages. This is a new development because in the past it has converted all pages.

Hi KP122,
Is it document specific or occurs with all the documents.
What is the extension of the word perfect documents?
You can convert the following File types to PDF
Microsoft Word (DOC, DOCX)
Microsoft PowerPoint (PPT, PPTX)
Microsoft Excel (XLS, XLSX)
Microsoft Publisher (PUB)
text (TXT)
Rich Text Format (RTF)
Adobe PostScript® (PS)
Adobe InDesign (INDD)
image (bitmap, JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG)
OpenOffice and StarOffice presentation, spreadsheet, graphic, and document files (ODT, ODP, ODS, ODG, ODF, SXW, SXI, SXC, SXD, STW).
To convert a file type not listed above, use Adobe CreatePDF Desktop Printer.

Installing AcrobatPro after removing Adobe Reader Safari displayed pdf urls only as a black page anymore

After installing Acrobat Pro it installs in Library/Internet Plugin-ins/AdobePDFViewer.plugin version 11.0.03. Allthough after selecting a PDF-link it leads to a displays it not in Acrobat Pro, it diplays it as a black page in Safari. When I have a look in Acrobat Pro into the preferences/internet/webbrowser-option/PDF to show inBrowser with: isnt checked! And there is still listed/Application/Adobe Reader.app instead of /Applikation/Adobe Acrobat Pro!!
There is no way to select this Applikation. Having a look at Lbrary/Preferences/com.adobe.acrobat.pdfviewer.plist listed:
AdobePDFDriver file://localhost/Volumes/Sicherung%20laptop/Applications/Adobe/Adobe%20Acrobat% 209%20Pro/Adobe%20Acrobat%20Pro.app/
ReaderInstallPath file://localhost/Applications/Adobe%20Reader.app/
WebBrowserUsePath file://localhost/Applications/Adobe%20Reader.app/
Has anyone changed the ReaderInstallPath file or WebBrowserUsePath file to the path of Acrobat Pro and as a result a good diplay of PDF-urls in Arcobat Pro or Safari??
Thankx, I hope my english isn´t to bad for a german apple-user!

Thanks for the screenshot, Pat. I think the light bulb went off for me. I was looking over the tips for configuring Firefox at the link:
http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/display-pdf-browser-acrobat-xi.html
And I think what confused me the most was this screen shot for plug-ins for Firefox mentioned Acrobat.
I had Acrobat installed myself, but most of our users do not use Acrobat, since it's not a free product. I uninstalled Adobe Acrobat, and the Adobe Acrobat plug-in was still there, so that forced me to realize that the plug-in that comes with Adobe Reader 11.0.3 is called "Adobe Acrobat".
I went into Tools->Options->Applications and selected "Use Adobe Acrobat (in Firefox)", rather than "Use Adobe Reader (default)".
This now allows me to not only view PDFs within a browser window in Firefox, but it also enables the save icon (which "Use Adobe Reader (default)" was not allowing me to do:
It's a shame that the default setting is not for "in browser", because our customers may have to make a configuration change.
There is no way to programmatically force a configuration change on a user's browser, is there?

Firefox PDF links - Trying to Open in Pages

Hi all,
I have a bit of a hiccup in that every time I attempt to click on a PDF link in Firefox 3.6.3 to open the file in Preview, the system attempts to open it with pages and I receive the following error message:
The document “PhotoVideo_Solicitation1449-1.pdf” couldn’t be opened. In a Pages Error window. The file automatically downloads and I can open it fine from there, but I'd like to be able to open it in Preview directly. I've gone into the OS settings to make sure Preview is default for PDF (it is). I've also made sure that PDF's in Firefox Preferences are set to open in Preview (it is).
Thanks if anyone can offer advice, solutions etc. This brings me back to my Windows days, of which I NEVER want to return!!!

Welcome to the forum.
Sounds like your "helper applications" have got muddled.
In Firefox:
+Menu > Firefox > Preferences > Content > File Types > Configure how Firefox handles certain types of files > Manage… > PDF > Open With > Change Action… > Open them with this application: > Browse to Preview in your Applications folder > OK+

Large pdf files only work in single-page mode

Does anyone know how to sort this out? I have a 3500 page PDF file and as I scroll to the *** end of the file, I can no longer view it in continuous mode as it keeps flickering. It loads properly in single-page mode, though.

Hi Retso
Sorry for not replying earlier. I've been conducting a
RoboHelp HTML class all day.
Are you using RoboHelp HTML 6? If so, there is a new option
labeled "Mark of the web" that could be nailing you. When you
generate your WebHelp by double-clicking the layout, see if this
option is enabled. If so, disable it and your PDF links should
begin working. Note, however, that by DE-selecting this option, you
could start seeing the Yellow Information bar as Internet Explorer
ever so helpfully deems this as a security threat and blocks your
WebHelp until you click it and allow the content to be shown.
Cheers... Rick

PDF Printing, only returns first row/page

Hi
I can easy demonstrate my problem:
Let's say I make a report query called 'select ename from emp'
This returns something like:
<DOCUMENT>
<DATE>13-AUG-07</DATE>
<USER_NAME>VIDAR</USER_NAME>
<APP_ID>150</APP_ID>
<APP_NAME>APEX - Application Builder</APP_NAME>
<TITLE>emp</TITLE>
<REGION ID="0">
<ROWSET>
<ROW>
<ENAME>KING</ENAME>
</ROW>
<ROW>
<ENAME>BLAKE</ENAME>
</ROW>
<ROW>
<ENAME>CLARK</ENAME>
</ROW>
... and so on...
Then - I make an RTF document with a simple text saying "Hello World to you <ENAME>", and upload it to the application while creating the report query.
My problem is, when I now try to open the report through the link, it just gives me page 1 with: "Hello world to you King" - but not page 2 "hello ... blake" , page 3 "...clark" etc.. How can I make ApEx+BIP loop through the rest of the rows? Is it supposed to be like this?
What I want is ONE .pdf-file with several pages, not just the first result...
Regards,
Vidar

Hi Vidar,
Yes you can. Open up your RTF template, click View -> Toolbar -> Forms.
The first icon on the toolbar is a 'Text Form Field', click on that, then double click into the field that this creates. From there click 'Add Help Text' at the bottom and you can 'Type your own' from there.
Put a <?for-each:yourrowname?> at the start of your template
and
<?end-for-each?> at the end. The BI Publisher User Guide has a section on exactly this.
Cheers,
Mike

Book-Function/PDF: Links between documents in pattern pages...

Hello,
we try to use InDesigns book-function for a complex presentation. It should work like this: We habe a book-file that collects single indesign files with projects. At the beginning there is a "start" file with standard-content, followed by THREE pages with tables of content. These pages are followed by some (round about a houndred) project pages. There are three different types of headline-formats for dfferent types of projects. That is why there ae three tables of content: for each type of project one...
All project pages have the same pattern pages with three links at the bottom that refer back to the three tables of content. So if you are on a project-pag you can choose to wih table of content you want to go back.
From while to while there are new projects, so we want to duplicate older projects, insert them into the book file and update the tables of content.
Thats the theorie!
Now to our problem: If we make a PDF file from that book some of the links back to the tables of content area working, some are not. Sometimes Indesign tells us that some links ae broken, even if they are all the same. I once had a PDF document where everything was working. But as soon as I insert a new project file indesign telles again that links are broken - not only in the new file - even if I havent changed anything in other files. And what works and what not is differnt from time to time, for me it seems to be quite arbitrarily...
Does anybody know about this problem?
Thank you very much!
Jan

Are these links Hyperlinks, or Cross-references?
Inter-document cross-refences are known to be extremely unreliable. I don't work with Hyperlinks, but are you sure they are actually pointing to the document that contains the three TOCs? ID doesn't do relative links, as far as I know, so you'd need to set up the links as absolute to the correct file. It's possible, too, that hyperlinks between files are just as unstable as cross-references.

PDF email only sends the top page and not the others

I have created a real estate brochure in Pages. I have tried to email it as a PDF. When it arrives at its destination there is only one page and not the three which are in the brochure. Why is this? I sent this in Pages format I have all the surrounding editing paraphernalia. It does not look very professional

Are you sure this is what is happening?
Only the top page is shown in the eMail. Save the pdf or double click on it so it open in Preview or Acrobat Reader and you should see all the pages.
If you want people to see multiple pages in the email, split the .pdf up into individual pages, then add them to the eMail.

No links (only data) in overview pages PCUI

Hi,
In the overview pages of opportunities, activities and accounts in the PCUI I see data, but the lines are not linked. So the data that I see (my favorites, my tasks, etc.) are not provided with a link.
Who can help?

Framemaker 11: pdf does not "jump" to the link spot.

I have markers in a table side heading that I want a Xref to jump directly to (place the cursor in front of the text). It works in Frame, but when I save as>.pdf the link only jumps to the page and not the location of the marker. Help???
PS...I am using Adobe Acrobat X to pdf.

> Unfortunately I MUST use view as "fit page" when creating the pdf ...
That should be irrelevant. This is just about viewing the PDF in a reader.
Use marquee zoom to zoom in at some high mag on the hypertext. Click it. See where it goes, using -minus zoom in steps as necessary.
And once again, what reader are you using? Adobe Reader? Acrobat Pro? Acrobat Std? Stand-alone or from a web browser? Some 3rd-party reader or browser plugin?

Can't open PDF links in Safari

Hi, only since a couple of days ago, I couldn't open PDF links in Safari. The page loads but nothing appears in the new window or tab.
Thanks,
Aaron

Welcome to Apple Discussions
Did you recently install Adobe Reader or is it installed in your system? If not, Safari's preference folder may be corrupt. To create a new preference file go to the Finder, drag to the desktop the com.apple.safari.plist folder found in your User Account>Library>Preferences folder.
Restart Safari and try a PDF. It ought to open within the browser. Also, you'll need to reset your custom preferences, plus any custom settings in the Edit (spelling) or View (status bar, bookmarks bar, custom icons etc.) menus.
If Adobe Reader is installed, and you want the PDF to open in the Safari Browser, go to your Internet Plug-ins Folder (Main or User Library in your Finder) and remove the Adobe plug-in.

Creating a PDF from Word, endnote links jump to wrong page

I have a Word file with a large number of endnotes. In Acrobat 9.5.5 the endnote links jumped to the correct page. In Acrobat XI, which I just upgraded to, all endnotes jump to the wrong page. Somehow when converting the Word to PDF the calculation of what page to jump to is calculated incorrectly. Is this a known problem? I see other discussions on problems with endnotes but they are for different problems. How can I resolve this. I don't want to have to revert to Acrobat 9, but it worked.

Well I tried that. I set the printer driver to Adobe PDF. I then selected all text and hit F9 to refresh all links and saved the file and then went to the Acrobat tab to create the PDF version. Using the application and importing the file to create a PDF causes the same result. I can now see a pattern of what is happening. This has a large number of endnotes, 525. There are probably 30+ endnotes links per page. I noticed that all the endnotes links for the first page that has the links all point to the second page of endnotes in the endnote section (strange that it starts with the second page and not the first), then all the endnote links of the next page point to the third page of endnotes and it continues that way until the end.
Another way to describe this is that the first page of endnote links should point to endnote pages 1 through 4 but they all point to page 2.
I checked and all the links in the Work doc are linking correctly.
I wonder if version XI has been rewritten since version 9 and my case is too extreme for this version and it chokes. I'm trying to rebuild part of the file from scratch and see if the problem goes away since there is a lot of history to this file and it started at least at Word 2007. I'm using Word 2013 now and have converted the format to the 2013 level.
I've sent in a bug report but have not heard anything and talked to customer service over chat but they don't seem to care enough to pass this to development even though it's easily reproducible.
Thanks for your help.

Generated PDF file...TOC Items Not Linked

Been racking my brain all day trying to figure out how the heck I created a PDF document TOC with hot links to the document pages from FM 9...and now all of a sudden when I save as a PDF from FM 9 my PDF document TOC is not linked to the document. Help in FM 9 is not very helpful. I'm using FM 9, Structured. Help please.
Thank you,
Eric G.

Hi Art, thank you for responding so fast. My TOC is being generated by an external source (ATA iSpec2200 app), so I don't have a "TOC" FM file to view properties on. At one time I was saving docs to PDF and having the TOC links active. Do you think the problem lies in my external TOC generator?

CS 5.5 problem with PDF links of master page TOC

Hi
Lately i moved from ID CS5 to CS5.5 working on Windows 7.
All spreads of my document are based on a master page. This mater page includes a pane with a TOC. This TOC serves as navigation pane.
When exporting the document to interactive PDF, the TOC appears on all spreads but the TOC links function well on the first spread and will not function on the next pages.
The interactive PDF export settings include: "open in full screen mode" and "buttons and Media = include all".
I made a test, and added hyperlink on the master page next to the TOC, now the TOC links turnned active on all pages but the PDF will not open in full screen although i did not change the export settings. If i remove this extra hyperlink the TOC links problem returns.
I used the same document a lot in the past (with CS5) and did not have any such problem.
Hope i managed to describe this case well.
Highly appreciate your help.

Thanks Steve
I trashed the two preference files as instructed.
Expoerted the file to IDML.
Opened the IDML file and saved it as an ID file.
The problem still exist.

How to make a PDF viewable only through an URL or a link?

Hi
I'm a newbie to Adobe Lifecycle ES. My ultimate aim to use this suite is to make my pdf viewable only through an URL or a weblink. The system must not allow the user to view the PDF without the particular URL. Is it possible to acheive this through Adobe Lifecycle ES? Please do reply as i'm in an urgency to finish my task.
Thakns in advance

If you are trying to control access to the actual URL where the Rights Managed PDF you would need to set up a way to authenticate users to allow them access ot the URL. This would be done on the web\app server, not using Rights Management ES.
You would use Rights Management ES to apply a policy to the PDF itself. A policy controls who can view (open) the document, and once the user authenticates to the RM server to open the document, RM controls the permissions that that user has for the document (i.e. can the PDF be printed, can content be copied etc...) RM cannot be used to control who can download a PDF form a URL. Policies can also control if the user must be online and connected to the RM server to open the PDF, or you can allow "Offline" access for a set period of time where the user does not need a connection to view the PDF, however the user still needs to be authenticated to view the document offline.
