Which tablets allow you to hyperlink to other pdf files using adobe reader?

On my windows pc, i can click the hyperlink on a file that then opens another pdf file.
the adobe reader on the windows tablet doesn't allow this function, nor does the chromebook.
the new ipad is a bit too expensive and the old ipad (1) can't use ios7, so that doesn't work either.
any recommendations for netbooks or tablets would be appreciated.
thanks!!

Hi  jeanniemtbean,
Thank You for posting on the forums. Adobe Reader does not provide you with this facility. This is a feature of Acrobat.
Thanks,

  • Can you create an electronic signature in a PDF file using Adobe Reader 9

    Hello all:
    I am filling out an application that I opened using Adobe Reader 9.
    It is a PDF document, and at the very bottom there is a field which is meant for my signature..
    Is there away to sign this electronically?
    Do I need to scan my signature and place it that field?
    Can I sign with a pen tool with in  Adobe Reader 9?
    Or do I need to print, sign the document, scan my document, and then import as a completely different PDF file?
    Thanks in advance!!

    That depends.
    Are they asking you to put a copy of your actual signature on there or are they asking for a "digital signature"?
    They are different things.

  • How to insert pdf file to adobe reader in windows phone 8? which directory?

    How to insert pdf file to adobe reader in windows phone 8? which directory?

    An other way is to copy the pdf with Windows explorer into the path /documents of the phone. Open Office and choose Adobe Reader. The pdf will be copyed in the Sandbox of the Reader and You may read it. You may delete the PDF in the documents path. It will still be in the Readers sandbox. All without any cloud ;-)!

    Could some one give help and let me know where I can probably find the settings option that allows me to change and switch to previous situation where it was possible to decide time to time how to proceed either opening the file or saving it ??

  • Hyperlinks missing from PDF when using Adobe Printer.

    Hi,
    I am not sure if this is in the correct spot or not. I have a group of users that are ALL experiencing the same problem. When they generate the PDF of their work using the Adobe Printer, ALL of the Hyperlinks in the document are gone (the text remains). This has been working up until August 20th of 2014. They are using Word 2010, and Framemaker 9 to create the source, and Acrobat Professional 8 for the generation of the PDF. I have used Libre Office Write to test it with and I get the same result, however if I go in to Acrobat and create a document and add a hyperlink it will work.
    Anyone have any thoughts as to what is wrong?
    Thanks
    --Mike

    Let us get a few items out of the way first.  How and what does the PDF generation:
    - The Adobe PDF Printer doesn't generate links EXCEPT in a very special case where the PostScript file has special markup embedded in it called PDFMARK.
    - Both Adobe Acrobat and Adobe Reader have a preference that will read the text of a PDF file and dynamically create hyperlinks from that text that are clickable. This preference can also be turned off.  Check it to make sure that for some silly reason this hasn't happened on your users machines.
    - Microsoft Word has a Ribbon at the top called "Acrobat".  Use this Ribbon and the Create PDF button in it to create PDF files with hyperlinks
    - Microsoft Word also has the option of Saving as PDF with a Microsoft Addin that has nothing to do with Adobe.  It's somewhat functional in the hyperlinks department but Acrobat's Ribbon is much more fully featured.
    - FrameMaker is a bit different because it actually uses that special markup language I mentioned previously called PDFMARK and then runs it through the Adobe Acrobat PDF Add-on (a.k.a Adobe Acrobat Distiller).
    - Libre Office uses it's own mechanisms to create PDF if I remember correctly.
    My Thoughts:
    Figure out what process your users have been using if it is not a documented process.  Document that process.  Train your users as they come to the job on exactly how you want the PDF files generated.

  • How do you open a PDF using Adobe Reader on your IPad in IBook?

    How do you open a PDF File using Adobe Reader on your IPad When in IBook?

    You can't. When you're in most of the PDF readers, the Share button gives you the option of Open In another app. But iBooks does not.
    You need to add your PDFs through the iTunes method which Alec wrote about here:
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1040579?tstart=0
    Or you can use another way of transferring your PDF to the iPad, like Dropbox. You install the Dropbox app on your iPad and copy your PDF from Dropbox (cloud application). It opens in Dropbox app and you use the Share icon to move it into Reader.

  • Using Adobe Reader, I cannot open any adobe documents, Message indicates missing plug-ins. Please help... Thank you

    Hey Joseph Curcio,
    You might be viewing the PDFs in your browser only where Adobe Reader plug-in is disabled.
    Please try opening the PDF file using Adobe Reader and then check.
    Let me know in which browser are you trying to view the PDFs so that I can help you out enabling the required plug-ins.

  • Recently no matter what I do, Firefox will not allow me to use Adobe Reader instead of it's own

    I used to be able to display pdf documents using Adobe Reader instead of Firefox's built in. I have tried everything that you suggest and that Adobe suggest. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Reader (11.0.09). I have gone to the options in Mozilla but when I try to change the Portable Document settings, I don't get the option for "Use Adobe Acrobat (in Firefox)". I do get the for Adobe Forms, but not for PDF documents. If I change it to use Adobe Reader, it downloads and then opens reader which is not I want. I want to use the plugin which is installed (I go to Add-ons and it is installed and "always activate").
    Help? This only started happening in the last month or so. I am running latest released Firefox (33.0.2), Windows 7 (up to date with all updates, etc.).

    That doesn't solve the problem. I have all those defaults. But in Firefox, it won't let me select for "Portable Document Format" to "Use Adobe Acrobat (in Firefox)" which it used to let me and which is what the Mozilla Firefox help stuff says to do. I can select Adobe Reader but then it downloads it and opens it in a separate reader window rather than using the plugin. If I select to let Firefox "Preview in Firefox", then the Firefox built-in PDF reader will display it. I have added an add-on "pdfViewerSwitcher" which then lets me display in the Adobe Reader plug-in but only after first displaying it in the Firefox preview. So that verifies that the Adobe Reader plug-in works. But I can't set it to always use the Adobe Reader plug-in.
    I have some reasons for wanting to use the Adobe Reader plug-in. I use Nuance Power PDF Pro for editing and doing other things with pdfs.
    This all used to work and stopped working at some point in the last couple months. And if you search the web, you will find I am not the only one with this complaint.
    I don't know whether it is Adobe's fault or Mozilla's fault but at least one of them is broken. And I think it is Firefox since it won't even let me select it but does let me select it for Adobe Forms.

  • I have a document made up of separate PDF files which reside in a folder and are linked to each other via hyperlinks. Each pdf file is set to open with bookmarks displayed, however if I link from one PDF file to another and use the "Previous View" button

    I have a document made up of separate PDF files which reside in a folder and are linked to each other via hyperlinks. Each pdf file is set to open with bookmarks displayed, however if I link from one PDF file to another and use the "Previous View" button to navigate back to my starting point the bookmarks are replaced by "page thumbnails". Is there anyway to stop this from happening?

    Hi Pusman,
    While setting up the links, if you choose to open the file in a new window then you won't face this issue, then you can simply switch to the previous file and bookmark view will remain as it is.
    Does that helps with your query?
    Regards,
    Rahul

  • Whenever you try to save a PDF file to a location other than the default location ('My Documents'), Firefox freezes & you have to go to the 'Task Manager' to exit Firefox and stop the error, so you can load Firefox again.

    Whenever you try to save a PDF file to a location other than the default location ('My Documents'), Firefox freezes & you have to go to the 'Task Manager' to exit Firefox and stop the error. I have Windows XP (Media Center Edition) and all updates (Firefox, Adobe PDF, Microsoft, virus protection, etc) are installed. This has only been a problem since Firefox 4, and isn't a problem in Internet Explorer.

    Hi David,
    Thank you for your detailed question. It sounds like the real issue is pdf files. Are there any antivirus/firewalls that might be blocking this specific file type? or are there any preferences in your control panel that might be blocking this?
    Do you have any stored preferences for PDF files in Firefox?

  • How can i create a hyperlink annotation on a pdf file using preview? the tool is removed from the toolbar

    It seems that the tool to create an hyperlink on a pdf file is removed from the toolbar!

    In order to initiate printing by clicking a button, the button has to have either an "execute menu item" type action or use the "print" JavaScript method. As you guessed, the former won't work since there are no menu items to execute, and the latter can only work if the particular PDF viewer you're using supports it. I'm not aware of any that do on iOS.
    The button doesn't appear because you're probably opening it in the default PDF viewer, which doesn't support forms at all. If you were to open the form in Adobe Reader, you'd see the button but it wouldn't work.

  • Filling up a pdf form which I received as email. I opened it on my adobe reader 11 and filled up the highlighted fields. Yet when I click on the send via mail it says changes will not be included. How do I send the form with changes?

    The add annotations field shows as not allowed in the security options. So how do I send this form back with the changes??

    I think you you need to click 'save' first, then it is saved to acrobat, where it will prompt to send.

  • How do you change text on a PDF file

    How do you change text on a PDF file

    If at all possible, you don't. You get the original (pre-PDF file), you edit that.
    Adobe Acrobat has some very limited facilities which sometimes allow very simple text edits to PDF (e.g. change a phone number).

  • I am getting messages that I can't download and read .pdf files since I have the wrong Adobe reader. I know about their security disasters of course, but I downloaded the latest version of Adobe Reader from the Adobe web site and I have other ,pdf file re

    I am getting messages that I can't download and read .pdf files since I have the wrong Adobe reader. I know about their security disasters of course, but I downloaded the latest version of Adobe Reader from the Adobe web site and I have other ,pdf file readers as well, and for some reason they won't work either. I have 5 computers running top end processors and RAM. By this I mean I have one, this one which I am using that has an AMD Phenom Black 3.2 Quad-core with 8 GBs of Corsair top DDR2 RAM, my other two AMD have either an Athlon II triple core with 4 GBs of DDR2 Corsair RAM, one with the Phenom X4 965 3.4 GHz Quad-core with 8 GBs of their best DDR2 RAM, and two Intels with the i7 920 Processors using the triple channel 1366 socket processors and one with 8 GBs of low latency DDR3 RAM and the other with 4 GBs of the same RAM. I am getting the message on this one, which has a fresh install of XP Pro X64 operating system, as do the other 4 as well. I have run Avast Business Pro Anti-virus on this one, which I am getting the message on with a single result which I deleted, and also both Spybot Search and Destroy, which came back clean as well as Malwarebytes Antimalware, which got a lot of tracing cookies now removed, and SuperAntiSpware which also found a few cookies also now deleted. Can you tell me what I need to do to get these files to show as .pdf files rather than as a clean blank page. One other issue is that I wish to know how to turn off my downloads so they are saved and Mozilla will give me the option of returning them instead of me losing them all together as it does now. Thanks for your assistance. If there is another Adobe reader I should download and install, could you provide me with the link to it? I appreciate your assistance here
