Create hyperlinks in PS CS6 - export as Photoshop PDF

Hello world here!

I design my PDF documents in Photoshop CS6 due to graphic content heavy involved in it and then I export via Photoshop PDF. I am wanting to make hyperlinks in my text so that a display of the PDF file will be able to click on the text or image and it will open a Web site.

(e.g. click here to like us on Facebook!) With the "here" being the hyperlink.

How should we do this?

Hi Adam

Unfortunately, you can not place hyperlinks in a Photoshop document and export to PDF.  You can of course create the work in Photoshop, but to use a hypertext link, you must use an application like InDesign, or even MS Word or MS Publisher.

  • Finalize a magazine created by Photoshop PDF...

    So I created a magazine in its entirety in Photoshop CS6.

    I know, not a perfect process, but what's done is done (started as a project much smaller, honest).

    32 pages carefully sorted into clear folders containing two vector text and image pixel data. The magazine is very visual, so there is a good mix of these two everywhere. The dimensions are perfectly adequate, but oversized (like work in ultra high resolution). The main file is 3 or 4 GB total.

    I would like to create a PDF magazine of this and I was wondering what would be the recommended procedure. My first thought was to export all pages in Photoshop as a uncompressed PDF (flatten the data pixel fonts and convert them to the line), to be re-assembled in Acrobat, once all 32 pages have been converted. Then, to Downsample to resolution target + size from there.

    My first 2 questions are:

    (1) is the best way to go to finalize this, if you are on the point I'm at?

    (2) the numbering of the pages. Manually in Photoshop, or let Acrobat handle?

    Maybe there is even an extension designed to exactly cela somewhere?

    I literally never used InDesign, so probably not the best option at this time.

    Thank you!

    Yes, not the best choice. But you could save on each page, and then create a pdf to PS presentation, by using the file > automate > PDF presentation.

  • Create hyperlinks with script, without increase of large size and treatment of the BP reqs resulting?

    Quick Summary: I have a script as part of a process involving a lengthy document of data merge base that creates hyperlinks by using doc.hyperlinkURLDestinations.add (). The script is simply extracted from text into clickable hyperlinks.

    The problem is, the final PDF files that emerge from this process are 300% the size of a PDF file without the running script and are very slow to deal with. Most of that extra weight from an increase of 740 000% crazy (!) in the amount of data used for "info-Structure" (and that's after you run the version with hyperlinks through the Acrobat PDF Optimizer).

    The amount of the data structure in the PDF files with hyperlinks ends up being more than twice the size of the entire file PDF files without hyperlinks added. There is also a substantial increase in the size of the "the cross reference Table.

    This sharp increase in weight becomes a quick and simple process which takes a few minutes in a slow winding which takes hours, to the creation of files with a very slow pace inflated in a process that is prone to crashing and not.

    I hope for another way to create hyperlinks that adds all this weight.

    --------------------------------

    Details: Here is my current process. It works fine except step 2 causes the final size of the PDF file and the time required for the execution of other processes to increase massively. I know there are different ways to implement hyperlinks in a PDF document - I hope that there is a different approach, that I can use to step 2 which avoids this massive expansion.

    The goal is to create 600 2 PDF pages from an indesign template using the fusion of data, with each PDF with a file name that reflects reviews and live hyperlinks which vary from one record to the next. Here is my current process (for analysis comparative, the machine is a Mac Pro, Lion, CS6, with RAM 6gbs, and all files are on a disk HARD space, no transfer of data on all networks):

    1. Implement an INDD 2 pages with placeholders for merging data and spreadsheet.
    2. Create merged INDD, import hypertext links and other content as text, then run this script in InDesign that makes hyperlinks using live doc.hyperlinkURLDestinations.add ()
    3. Export a PDF to 1 200 PDF page - file > export if step 2 was made, or the merger of data tool if it wasn't.
      • Without step 2: the PDF file is about 110mbs and takes a few minutes to create.
      • Step 2: the PDF file is about 170mbs and takes over an hour and a half to create - I do not know exactly how long I ended up leaving running from one day to the next, but he had already run 1: 20 p.m. when I left and doesn't look close to finishing.
    4. Run this script in Acrobat to chop the PDF into segments of 2 pages with names based on worksheet data.
      • Without step 2: the process takes about quarter of an hour, slightly faster than a secondcreation of PDF files, and PDF files are 700kbs.
      • Step 2: the process crashes after about 10 PDF files and takes minutes to produce each one. Even if it did not freeze, it should be about 25 hours to do all of them.
      • In step 2 and then reducing the PDF to 45mbs through optimizer PDF Acrobat and 'save in reduced format' to cut, backward, compatibility, the process takes about 4 hours, producing a PDF every 20-30 seconds, and PDF files are around 3 MB each. Through to watch the process, almost all of the extra time taken comes from step "backup PDF... "for each of them.

    Each PDF 2 pages has 14 or 15 of the hyperlinks. I do not understand how the 14 and 15 of the hyperlinks can translate into an additional 2mbs of "" and something like the processing time of more than 3500% to create each PDF file.

    Can someone suggest modifications to the script in step three, which could avoid all this overhead? Here's the complete script for convenience:

    app.findGrepPreferences = app.changeGrepPreferences = null;

    var doc = app.activeDocument;

    app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = '(http://.*$|https://.*$)';

    var objs = doc.findGrep();

     

    for (var i = 0; i < objs.length; i++) {

        var currTarget  = objs[i];

        var lnkDest = doc.hyperlinkURLDestinations.add(currTarget.texts[0].contents);

        var lnkSrc = doc.hyperlinkTextSources.add(currTarget);

        var lnk = doc.hyperlinks.add(lnkSrc, lnkDest);

    }

    alert('Processed '+objs.length+' hyperlinks');

    Edit - Here is a side-by-side comparison of the "Use of space Audit" tool optimizer based on CSSTidy Acrobat PDF, showing where the hyperlinks add volume. I scored two sharp increases in red...

    acrobat-audit.png

    .. .so there is a massive increase going crazy in the size of the info "Structure", a tiny mbs 0.000238 to 1.76 MB - two and a half times the size of the original file, just on 'info Structure. It's a 740 000% increase...

    There is also a strong increase in fat in the cross reference table, 0,0046 mbs to 0.427 mbs - table of cross-references in the PDF with hyperlinks is more than half the size of the original file.

    The only differences between two files PDF's, we have 14 clickable hyperlinks attached to existing excerpts of the text (the "hyperlinks" are from a PDF file that comes with living aggressive optimization PDF and images are so much smaller).

    So it turns out the source of the problem was the document tags.

    Make sure that the PDF file is not created as a PDF by InDesign Tagged, and it behaves. I don't know what is it about hyperlinks and marking that makes it swell massively, but it does.

  • Color of the blue hyperlink is lost when you export to interactive PDF?

    I work in InDesign CS6 multi page document several links.  In my hypertext document are appearing in the correct (RGB) color blue; However once I have export to interactive PDF file, blue hyperlinks become dark blue color (CMYK).  I changed the RGB output and the mixture even at the ROYAL Botanic Gardens, but still have the same question...  Help, please! Thank you

    If you click on include > hyperlinks when exporting to PDF (Print), it will keep the direct hyperlink. I tested the color RGB 0-0-255 export to PDF (Interactive) and retain the color. Maybe you need to restore your preferences.

  • Creating hyperlink in the generated table of contents

    Hello

    I use InDesign CS4 and the difficulty to create hyperlinks in my automatically generated by Table of contents. I can create the destination in the document, but then the opportunity to create the new hyperlink (from Interactive menu drop-down) in the table of contents has disappeared. Option is not visible anywhere elsewhere in the document, or if I create manually the table of contents, just doesn't seem to work with generated automatically a.  Does anyone know if this is a known problem in CS4?

  • Imports RAW of Lightroom have greenish tint, but not when exported to Photoshop

    I just started using Lightroom 3.6 and I love how powerful he is, but I'm having a serious problem with my RAW photos looking very green.

    When I import my pictures library in LR3, all of them arrive with a greenish tint very.  When I look at the exact same RAW photos with Canon Digital Photo Professional (the software that came with my Canon 60 d RAW), they seem normal, as it should.

    In addition, what I've discovered, is if I take one RAW files and export to Photoshop for editing, the image seems normal (no greenish hue) in photoshop, then I can save in TIFF or JPG format and they look very well.

    If I export a RAW file directly from LR3 in a JPG file and then view the JPG file in a number of spectators (LViewPro, Firefox, IE, etc.) they all look normal (again, no greenish hue).  So the only place where I have the problem of Hue's LR3.

    I tried to play with the calibration of the camera in LR3, cycling through different profiles (adobe standard, trusty camera, camera, camera neutral landscape, etc.).  Each of them that I select brings a very minor change, but is certainly not correct the problem.  I tell myself that there must be something with the way the LR3 is the reading of the calibration of the colors of the RAW image, but I'm lost for a solution.  Could someone please lend a helping hand.  Here's an example of how LR3 displays a picture and now another RAW file is the display.  It's the exact same RAW file with no adjustments made.  As you can see there is a pretty drastic difference!

    LR3 example.jpgDigPhotoProf Example.jpg

    I would also add that if I make adjustments to the RAW file in LR3 and arrived at a point where the image appears normal in LR3, when I export to photoshop or in JPG format, this file ends up looking way different than what it looks like in LR3.

    -Ryan

    Ryan,

    The Green tint in your histogram tells me that your display profile is corrupted. How is your monitor calibrated/profile?

    To test this theory, try to assign a profile sRGB ICC for your screen (see here for instructions). If things look OK then, the theory is confirmed, but no solution yet. You will need to create a good ICC profile for your monitor using a hardware calibration device.

  • Export to PhotoShop

    Is the preferred method of creating with Illustrator and then editing with Photoshop:

    File > export, then choose. PSD?

    I'm quite familiar with Illustrator,

    still not PhotoShop still used...

    strange, I'm sure.

    Say that your photoshop canvas size is 15 x 10 cm, represented by the dots here.

    You want to copy the blue and orange shapes in Photoshop, each on its respective layer and in the same position relative to each other.

    Draw these little magenta squares so that they line up on opposite corners of a rectangle of 15 x 10.

    First copy the blue form with the magenta squares and paste it in PS then orange and magenta squares.

    Remove the squares of each layer

    Now you have them to sign up on the 2 layers in Photoshop, and you can give each layer etc. effects.

    The other point is that you can copy a picture hidden in Illie which is larger than the 15 x 10 area in the direction or both.

    It could look like this, where the orange is the inconspicuous a placed image hidden:

    If you try to paste it into PS, Photoshop will always try to adapt it on the canvas.

    Make sure that you enter the 100% figure (bound vertical and horizontal) in the control of Options at the top of the Photoshop window bar.

    Click the check mark button and drag the pasted layer until it is aligned with the corners of the canvas.

    These magenta places still work :-)

  • Hyperlink problem when you export to PDF using Javascript

    From an INDD file, my script changes the texts of the product to the hyperlinks number.  I find them using findTextPreferences, then I add this url before the product numbers:

    ".. /Products.jsp/prodnum="+ ProductNumber;

    Then I export it in PDF format.  When a mouse user on several products, they can click on it and go to the above page.

    The problem is when I export to PDF, there are spaces before and after the number of the product.  example:

    ".. /Products.jsp/prodnum=%205674-897%20 ".

    To check where the spaces are coming from, I've added alerts on my script, but there is no space on my alerts, only when it is exported spaces will appear on the product numbers.

    You will need to find a way to remove the spaces from the product numbers.  I tried many things such as replace, I created a trim function, paintings, all concatenated product to 1 variable numbers then used substring.  The expected result is:

    ".. /Products.jsp/prodnum=5674-897 ".

    Thanks in advance guys, I hope you can help.

    Using ExtendScript Toolkit CS5 and Adobe InDesign CS5.

    I created show and hide features in InDesign I want to export to interactive PDF format. These functions work when seen in Acrobat on the desktop, but not on iPad/Tablet - why?

    Why? Most likely because the PDF Viewer on the Tablet is too stupid to deal with show/hide functionality.

    You could try PDF Expert of Readdle on qpdf Notes Pro on Android and iOS devices.

    Depending on how the show/hide was created during the export of InDesign, it can work in viewers. Otherwise, you will need to open PDF files in Acrobat and edit features show/hide something more digests of PDF device viewers.

    BTW, you will encounter the same issues with the PDF display components in web browsers.

    Are you familiar with JavaScript?

    It does not completely answer your question, but the text displayed on the screen from any language (ActionScript/CreateJS / [insert the programming language]) generally all following the same path. Each language has a file stored in some form of key = value style, named through the language and the country of your choice, for example en_US.json

    Any language would allow the user to choose regional settings. The application would then grab the appropriate file and everywhere where the text is needed, the script must be using a (usually global or singleton) variable/service that can get the text of the requested key.

    for example if I wanted a user to have a confirmation of dialogue who said 'are you sure?"with buttons for 'Yes' and 'No', I would have (for me), an Englishman, USA base file en_US.json with these values, for example:

    en_US. JSON example:

    {

    'CONFIRM_YES_NO': ' are you sure?

    'YES': '' Yes. ''

    'NO': 'no '.

    }

    Then you use simply JS/AJAX to read this file. You analyze, or simply JSON decode in an object, or manually, depending on what suits your needs. When you want to display any text, you use the object (variable, maintenance, etc.) you have stored these values.

    for example calling to display function confirm dialogue:

    Nickname... but if you understand...

    and this comes from jQuery UI (see here)

    function confirmDialog() {}

    $(«#dialog-confirmer»).dialog({)

    Title: LocalizationObject ['CONFIRM_YES_NO'],

    buttons:]

    {

    text: LocalizationObject ["YES"],

    Click: function() {/ / do something for 'yes '.

    }

    {

    text: LocalizationObject ["NO"],

    Click: function() {/ / do something to the 'no '.

    }

    ]

    });

    }

    Please consider loosely. 'LocalizationObject' is a variable object or service that returns the appropriate text for the key that you provide. In this case, he provided the key 'CONFIRM_YES_NO', 'YES' and 'NO', which must be on the right answer for this key, localized.

    Again, this is not a manual on how to do it via Flash Pro but it's the general conceptual way you could do it in any language. There are a variety of other ways to do it, but it's a very simple way, as long as you keep your key names at least wake up verbose. A key name such as LocalizationObject ["ABC123"] is not really tell you what the key can be referred. Also nest them contributes greatly, as LocalizationObject ["UI'] ['DIALOGUES'] ['CONFIRM'] ['YES_NO'] = ' are you sure? It just shows I nested the title of the dialog within the user interface, because it is the text that appears in the user interface rather than content. Then inside dialog boxes that may contain a variety of different dialog boxes. Then inside her CONFIRM type of dialogue. Finally, the type is a dialogue YES_NO type (as opposed to OK_CANCEL or JUST_OK, etc.). Whole set makes it easy to understand what the text of reading: UI YES_NO confirm DIALOG boxes.

    I hope that from here you can see that you need to review everywhere you display text on the screen and centralize it in a sort of object (function or variable) of your choice. You must store the external language files to prevent unnecessarily load the other languages as well as an easy to modify Setup.

    The rest is just using basic JavaScript.

    Just be ready for the most difficult challenge. At least for me. The size of the text in several languages is very different, and in some cases requires the loading of special fonts. This can make layout in a very difficult dynamic environment. Always thinking all text how big or small can be in any particular and plan field on this size more and shrink so that to handle this situation correctly.
