Creating hyperlinks in a Acrobat 6.0 pdf

liquidink · 09-21-2008, 07:16 AM

Hi, I am on a Mac with OS 10.4.11. I have Acrobat 6.0 version. I have tried to add hyperlinks in a pdf (using link) and these work whilst the pdf is open in Acrobat. As soon as I try to paste the pdf in an email message, the link is not there anymore.

The only alternative I have so far is to create a "Save for Web" file from my illustrator file with no links in the image.

I am trying to create a email newsletter with the software I have which is Mac Office 2008, CS2 Standard.

Thank you.

is your email set to text only or html?

Hi, I have checked my mail and am not sure where to check this?

I have Mail 2.1.3. In preferences, under VIEWING it is selected "Display remote images at html".

In PREFERENCES in COMPOSING, Message Format, I have a choice of Rick text or Plain text. (Rich Text is selected)?

Quick question : Do you have Acrobat or just the reader ?

I have Acrobat 6.0.2. Thank you.

Have you tried attaching the file to the email instead of copy/pasting?

Sorry I have not replied sooner - I have not been at my computer all day. Yes I actually attached the file first to the message. I have also tried to copy paste the pdf into the message. Doesn't look like it is going to work. Thank you for trying.
