Publish a document in Adobe
Hi,
I have a publisher file that i want to go on the web with Hyperlinks and all. I want it to be an Adobe file so that no one can edit it. Is this possible or is there a better way of doing this function? JudyT |

Adobe Reader v6.05 (?) "recognizes" email addresses and URLs without any

You could password protect the PDF file against editing and even printing if
you want. The above is possible with PDF-XChange and probably with Adobe Acrobat. I don't know about the popular Primopdf.

If you use Publisher 2002 or later with Acrobat 7 (not Reader) or later then you will get an add-in that preserves hyperlinks on PDF export. If you use Publisher 2007 you get the PDF functionality built in; you just have to download the free add-in to switch it on. -- Ed Bennett - MVP Microsoft Publisher http://ed.mvps.org |

Have you ever tried this? May I suggest that you open a .pdf file and try
it? If you would like, I will gladly send you one to prove my point. But then again, you might not trust me. How about if we ask someone else to create a simple .pdf file with nothing more than a web address in plain text and convert it to a .pdf file with PrimoPDF? I'm telling you that the cursor in Reader will recognize it. As soon as I can find the information from an independent source (you never know whom I may have bribed), I'll post it for you. How does that sound? -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] ~~~~~ How to ask a question http://support.microsoft.com/KB/555375 "DavidF" wrote in message ... Don, Contrary to what Joann continues to spout, if you produce a pdf with primopdf hyperlinks do not survive the conversion. She just doesn't seem to accept reality.

That's kind of you to post this three times in the same thread. When you
learn I'm right, please make sure you post *that* three times as well to balance out the bad karma. Thank you. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] ~~~~~ How to ask a question http://support.microsoft.com/KB/555375 "DavidF" wrote in message ... If you use the Publisher 2007 pdf add-in to insert the hyperlink correctly in a Publisher document, those links will survive the conversion to pdf. If you use primopdf and some of the other freebie pdf tools, the hyperlinks will not survive. If you use the full version of Acrobat and some other products such as PDF-Exchange that Don uses, the hyperlinks will also survive. But contrary to what JoAnn continues to say, just writing the link will not work. DavidF "JudyT" wrote in message ... Hi, I have a publisher file that i want to go on the web with Hyperlinks and all.

No it does not!!!! When are you going to quit telling people this? Just
because you keep repeating it over and over again won't ever make it true. DavidF "JoAnn Paules" wrote in message ... Adobe Reader v6.05 (?)

From the Adobe Reader Help file under Preferences - General Panel -
Preferences for viewing PDFs: Create Links From URLs Specifies whether links that weren't created with Acrobat are automatically identified in the PDF document and become clickable links. Now admittedly this is from v8 but it also says the same thing in v7. Perhaps you should check your Reader settings to see whether your settings are not allowing this on your system. It would be terrible to find out that your Reader isn't giving you it's full functionality. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] ~~~~~ How to ask a question http://support.microsoft.com/KB/555375 "DavidF" wrote in message ...
