Using free reader, how to activate a hyperlink embedded in a pdf documnet?

Using Windows 7. Control/click does not work.   embedded link not a webaddress that can be copied, but is a descriptive phrase.  Thanks.

you cannot tell if something is a link in the Reader
Actually, when you hover the pointer over a link, it should display a hand with a 'W' in it, and a balloon with the target address.  (But not all links do that, depending on how the link was inserted into the PDF.)

  • Using 10.6.8, internet pdf documents not opening using Adobe Reader; how is this corrected?

    Using 10.6.8, internet pdf documents not opening using Adobe Reader; how is this corrected?  I've tried changing "sharing and permissions" to "read and write" as suggested on other help sites, but this did not correct the problem.

    I had the same problem---contacted Adobe and their service rep helped me by
    A.   Deleting  Adobe Reader from my iMac's Applications in Finder
    B.   Downloading Google Chrome browser and then
    C.   Downloading the latest Adobe Reader for Mac 10.6.8 in Google Chrome--it works
    Adobe acknowledges problem with the latest Snow Leopard update 10.6.8 and with this work around, I can open PDF's using the Google Chrome Browser.
    Is this the ideal solution---NO.  Safari is my main browser. I now have to use a separate browser for PDF's.
    Am I happy to be able to open PDF's---YES
    You can't believe the time I spent to solve this problem before calling Adobe for help. My Apple Care policy expired a month ago . As I use Photoshop Elements, I was not charged by Adobe for their help on the telephone.

  • Can Preview recognize hyperlinks (embedded URLs) in PDF docs?

    I've been trying to research this online but I get conflicting answers. Can Preview recognize hyperlinks (embedded URLs) in PDF documents? If it can, then how are those created?
    I am using Adobe Acrobat Professional v7 (on Windows) and Preview doesn't appear to see the links I've created. Acrobat Reader on both Mac and Windows works fine.

    I don't have any documents that I can test straight off, but I know Preview is limited when it comes to some of the advanced features of PDFs and you have to use Acrobat Reader for those. This might be another of those.

  • Adobe Reader for Android to play video embedded in a PDF document.

    I am a medical  teacher. A large part of my teaching is technical and skills based and I have a lot of teaching video material. I distribute my material to my students as PDF documents with embedded videos. They can presently only read this on their PCs. It would be wonderful if I could place that material in a 7 inch Android tablet in their coat pockets. They could review a "how to"  video and text immediately before perfoming a medical procedure.  It is so easy and fast to prepare a Word text document, convert it to PDF embedded with a simple cropped video clip. Also the original word document can be updated in moments and be converted into  a fresh PDF with video in a minute later to replace the one on the student computer or tablet whenever. This makes the teaching material a living text easy to keep permanently up to date. To date I have not managed to find an eReader or Tablet that that I could play an video embedded in a PDF document. The problem is Adobe Reader for Android doesn't do this. Does anyone know of any other easy way to produce documents with embedded video that can also be read on a pocket size tablet or eReader?  Is Adobe going to upgrade Adobe Reader for Android to this ability sometime? Is there any other PDF reading app that can play embedded video?

    GoodReader ($4.99), ezPDF Reader ($2.99) and PDF Expert ($9.99) are well rated and support many more features.

  • Create a Form in Acrobat Standard that can be filled out AND SIGNED using Free Reader

    I am tasked with creating forms that can be read, filled out and signed and submitted electronically by users that have only the reader software. I am using Acrobat 5 standard. I have not yet found a way to successfully create a form field that would allow users to insert a signature of some sort. This signature does not have to be encrypted, or use the digital signature system Adobe Acrobat has where you create a profile, log in, etc. It could be as simple as the ability to insert a jpeg or other image of their handwritten signature. This is to avoid having to have them fill it out, and then print it and fax or scan it in. It would be great if they could fill it out and then just save it and email it. How would I do this, or is it even possible?
    Thanks,
    JOhn

    With AA5, there is no capability to submit a signature - even electronic. You can create a form that can be filled out, signed in the sense of adding a name and date, and submit to a web site.
    Insertion of images is not part of forms with AA5, but I think has become possible recently. Even so, they reader would also have to be compatible with the feature to be able to use it. If the typing of the name and the date would do, then you can add those fields - sort of the limit with AA5.
    With AA5, they can not save the form with the data. They can submit the data as an FDF file to a web site. If you have control of the client machines, then you can consider e-mail since those issues can be worked out locally. Without control of the clients (like a general form on the web), don't bother with e-mail since there will always be some that have problems.

  • Using pen tool, how to activate it?

    I am just this week upgraded to CS5 from CS3, so some differences. One that has stumped me so far is finding the pen tool. It was readily available in CS3 but I cannot find it in the tool bar or anywhere else. I want to add some points to an object for text wrap purposes. I have searched the Help files and all I have found so far are directions like  "select the pen tool" which doesn't solve it for me. I am thinking there is something else I have to do to make the tool a choice. Any suggestions?

    The Pen tool hasn't moved. You should be able to select by pressing the letter P. That would make it visible if it were hiding under another of the path-editing tools.
    If it still doesn't show up, either you have a bad installation, or you need to restore your preferences. Here are the directions for restoring preferences:

  • Using Pages app, how can I separate a document into individual PDF pages on iPad to email

    I am trying to email individual pages of my document to different people as PDF attachments. I am using pages for iPad and I don't see the option to email current page as PDF, any help appreciated!

    If you don't have iTunes you will need to buy the song from the iTunes store and download it that way. If it is a custom track you may be out of luck.  The only way to get a song on your device without iTunes involves jailbreaking it. 
    iOS is set up to prevent people from emailing each other songs, videos, movies, books, etc. This is how Apple got their contracts with the content providers by promising that they would do what ever it takes to prevent people from sharing content that they didn't pay for.

  • How to validate all hyperlinks, including links in pdf files?

    Dreamweaver's link checker only checks links in html files. Is there's a Dreamweaver plug in I could use to check links (all kinds of links) in pdf files on my site?  I haven't been able to find one and would appreciate suggestions. Thanks.

  • How to activate Image, Pdf, Hyperlink and Scale Prices in SRM-MDM

    Hi Experts,
    I have requirement to activate the following features:
    1. Image
    2. PDF
    3. Hyperlink
    4. Scale Prices
    These should be activated and should be available in the current business' internal catalogs so that users could be able to easily identify the item they want to create.
    Does anyone know the steps on how to proceed on these?
    I have read and researched about this and I found out that objects should be imported in Data Manager and the link between items should be mapped in Import Manager.
    I tried this first in Image, I was able to successfully import image. I tried adding the link first in existing item in data manager by right click on the Image field->Add/Link New... -> I was brought to the screen where I should add the image again, so I added ti again and there I was able to link the image and the item.
    I understand that for the image to be available in the end-user's internal catalog screen, I should modify UI Configuration. So I added the Image field by going to Customize Display Tab-> and adding it in the Item Lists, Cart Preview, Compare, Item details radio button. But when I checked on end-user's internal catalog screen, Image column is still not there.
    I believe PDF and Image has the same process. But how could I add the link between image and item for the entire catalog items?
    Please also help on how to activate the Hyperlink and Scale price functionality.
    Thank you so much!

  • Why am I unable to open on line pdf files using Adobe Reader version XI?

    When we go online to view pdf versions of statements at our bank's web site we are unable to view anything but a blank Adobe document. We are unable to download the file to our computer so there is no way for us to view the document. We have Mozilla version 29.0.1 and Adobe Reader XI. Is there anything we can do to correct the issue?

    Have you tried using the reader as a helper application? Will any other PDF reader work?

  • Adobe PDF Form (submission by email) - ok on desktop, but using Adobe Reader on iPhone cannot 'submit'

    I recently created an Adobe form (Adobe XI Pro) with a 'submit' button - submission by email (not using Forms Central).  The form works well on desktop (Outlook 2010), but when I open the same PDF on mobile (Adobe Reader installed), the 'submit' function is a dud - does nothing.  Any ideas for a fix?  Thanks.

    If your user is using Adobe Reader and wants to add an attachment to your PDF file... you need Adobe LiveCycle Designer Reader Extensions to do that...
    If your user is using Adobe Acrobat Pro then u can add attachments with this
    var myDoc = event.target;
    var sFile = "myFile" + NumericField1.rawValue;
    myDoc.importDataObject({cName: sFile});
    var myDataObject = myDoc.getDataObject(sFile); 
    var sFileName = myDataObject.path; 
    ListBox1.addItem(sFileName,sFile); 
    NumericField1.rawValue = NumericField1.rawValue + 1;
    you can also remove the file
    myDoc.removeDataObject(sFile);
    you can also open the file
    myDoc.exportDataObject({ cName: sFile, nLaunch: 2 });
