• RH10 - WebHelp links to PDF files stop working when WebHelp is generated.

  RH10 - after generation to WebHelp links to PDF files do not work. If I saw the topic in HR, the file will open and display. HR project reports any broken links. If I have a link to the file again, the file will be imported in HR and overwrite the file that already exists.  If I do one generate and display in my office cannot find the files of a hyperlink.   If I do a primary mode, the files could not be found in FireFox. Had too many problems with IE10 so I stopped using it.

  I've never had this happen before with any version of RoboHelp. Please help me.

  Ahhhh, you did not say that it did not work once you have copied the files on the server. That's a horse of a very different hue!

  Okay, so if it's the WebHelp on the server, you have problems with, here's what to check.

  Are the files that you are linking to really there? They cannot be. What are the baggage files for. You may need to add the files that you link to the list of files so that they are between the release of baggage.

  If the files are there, the server can be a flavor of UNIX. In this case, you will need to check the naming conventions. If the file name is SomeFile.PdF, and your link says SOMEFILE. PDF (or another variant of case) links fails on a UNIX UNIX server being very picky about file names.

• Maintaining links between PDFs converted from source (Word) files

  Hello

  If I have two Word files and manage the links between them (hyperlink on one specific bookmark on the other), is there a way to easily remember (or reproduce) these links on PDF files converted from Word files?

  Here's what I've tested so far.

  -On the source file, the format of the hyperlink is "{filename} .docx #{bookmarkname}. I changed the extension of docx to pdf.

  -Source/target to convert Word files to PDF format.

  -The hyperlink on the converted source PDF is in the format "file:///{targetpath}/{targetfile}%23{bookmarkname"}

  -When I click on the hyperlink on the converted source PDF, security warning pops up with "this document tries to connect to...". »

  -If I click on 'Allow' on the pop-up, the web browser opens with "cannot display this page" error. "

  
  

  I guess that by using the hyperlink is not a viable solution. If the links do not work, do the following manually?

  
  

  - source file Word, remove all hypertext links (because they do not work on PDF even when)

  -convert files to PDF format

  -on target of PDF, the value named destinations on the points corresponding to Favorites
  

  -on the source PDF, find points corresponding to hyperlinks and define the links to destinations named on target PDF.

  
  

  (Actually the situation is more complicated because files are shared at the chapter level and they should be merged for each new version.)

  
  

  If there is a simpler method to achieve this, I would appreciate your help.

• Link to PDF: Blank Page

  Hello world

  I appreciate all the help I've gotten so far in my DPS adventures!

  I came across a problem I'll describe as best I can:

  • I made a PDF of test called "test.pdf" with happy test in this regard.

  • I ziped the file alone in a HTMLResources.zip file

  • I've used folio Builder to download the zip file.

  • I created a button (just a blue circle in the middle of my page) who has a go at the URL: ' HTMLResources/test.pdf' on the release or the tap.

  • I got the update and whenever I try to test the button, the application in browser opens, but there is a blank page instead of the contents of my test.

  Everyone comes through this?

  I was able to open an html page in the same folder: ' HTMLResources/test.html' but not the pdf file.

  Thanks in advance,

  Kenny

  A link to PDF files should work on the iPad (or web viewer), but it is not supported on viewers such as the viewer desktop and Android-based AIR.

• Linking to pdf files

  Hello!

  I'm trying to link a pdf file and connect this pdf to a "folio" DPS button.

  I've tested the HTMLResources.zip file, however it does not work in offline mode, the fact?

  And when I try to view in the office, it does not work too.

  Is it possible to make it work in these conditions?

  Thank you very much!

  Yes, it works in offline mode and it should work on the Viewer from the office but only

  If you are seen in the folio, not just an article.

• create polygonal links in PDF

  Is it possible to create polygonal links in PDF? Could be useful, for example for interactive maps.

  In the PDF specification, I read on the /QuadPoints key in the link annotations. However, I did not understand the documentation here, that it serves that purpose? Or it creates a number of quadrangle, not necessarily rectangular (8 vertex coordinates would allow it) interactive areas that may or may not overlap?

  The second, Yes.

  You can create an arbitrary quadrangular shape to associate with your link.  You can have as many of them as you want.

  The idea of more flexible forms of links has been discussed over the years but not made not of the standard.

• Open a new window when linking between PDF docs (link originates in a Word doc)

  Hello

  I saw this discussed historically general topic, but couldn't find any resolution.  I have a Word doc (let's call it A.doc) linking to a PDF doc (let's call it b.pdf). Once I have convert Word doc to PDF (A.pdf creation), I want the link en.pdf to open b.pdf in a new window.

  I've seen a number of suggestions that indicate that I can set up the link in Word to do this, use her change the hyperlink > target frame > frame target > 'new window '.  While this works if I click on the link in Word, it does seem to "reporter" once I converted A.doc to A.pdf.  When I click the link en.pdf then B.pdf opens in the same window in time.

  I know how to add manually link in Acrobat.pdf to do this, but I don't want you add manually the link every time I create A.pdf.  I want to create the link once in A.doc and did delay in time, and then open the b.pdf link in a new window.

  I've seen suggestions on adding some HTML somewhere.  Unfortunately, they are not, that I'm viewing the PDF files in a browser.

  I saw suggestions for using the CTRL key at the same time click on the link en.pdf.  Would not be practical, because I have no way to make sure that my users will know it.

  I've seen suggestions on the use of JavaScript, but it would mean (I know) I have to add the JavaScript whenever I convert A.doc A.pdf.  Still, I won't have to do any post-processing of A.pdf after I got it to create.  I want the link in 'just work' A.doc after A.pdf is created, i.e. open b.pdf in a new window.

  This * seems * like a simple thing to do, I hope there is a simple solution.

  BTW, I'm using Word 2007 and Acrobat X.

  Thanks for your help!

  Dave

  I use Word 2003 and Acrobat 10 and links created as you describe defaults to 'new window '.

  You have the 'Open links in the same interdocument window' unchecked in Edit > Preferences > Documents?

  .. sounds too easy... (and your users will probably have to make the change even if they need this behavior, unless you have a very techno IT department that can deploy configuration files large company).

• RoboHelp guard clear my PDF link information

  I use RH10. I inherited a help system that uses hyperlinks for a link to a PDF that is contained in a directory within RoboHelp. I need to add a new link, so I decided to copy the formatting of the existing hyperlinks that specify a specific page in the PDF file, as follows:

  .. /PDF/my_teamcenter.PDF#page=296

  Whenever I do and save the hyperlink, it truncates the link name and excludes information page number, as follows:

  .. /PDF/my_teamcenter.PDF

  Why RoboHelp keep remove this information? All existing links are formatted as such and are working properly?

  Thank you

  Douglas

  I think you'll find that adding the page number cannot be done from the Design tab. I guess that the person who has done so previously added the link to the PDF document and then in the HTML tab to add the #page = 296 here. Don't forget to save the topic before leave you the tab or you may find that the page number is not saved.

• Link dead .pdf in WebHelp

  I added a .pdf file to my files of luggage and you simply want to create a link in a topic that will open the .pdf.

  I added the link successfully (Shift + drag... no problem), but when I opened the WebHelp, the link is dead.  I click on it, nothing happens.

  I actually can right click and select SAVE TARGET, so I can save the .pdf, I know that the link is 'See' the file.

  Why not the .pdf opens in the window?  I know I've done this before.  Please help before going to mmmmaaaaaaaaad.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  My guess is that you test the WebHelp on your local hard drive and you are using Microsoft Internet Explorer testing. When you have generated, you used the option to add the mark of the Web.

  If you want to test the link disable MOTW locally and deal with the IE yellow information bar that appears when you run WebHelp. Or configure IE if you do not get the YIB.

• Cannot open links in pdf Web sites

  When I click on a link to a pdf file in the Web sites, a window opens showing me records in my own office. PDF files will open very well when I use Explorer, so it is unique to FF. My version is up-to-date

  Could you go to see how Firefox is set to handle PDF files? It seems that you might have configured to automatically record.

  the button Firefox orange (or the Tools menu) > Options > Applications

  The loading list may take a while. Once it loads, type or paste PDF in the search box above the list and pause while Firefox filter. Then, on the side right, could you try another option?

• Links in PDF files do not work.

  If a PDF file is created by taking a Word document and save it as a PDF, if there is no link in the file PDF will not work. You can click 'til you're blue in the face, and nothing will happen.

• RoboHelp 9 link hyperlink/Popup...

  I use RoboHelp 9.0.2.271 within TCS 3.5 on the following laptop of Dell at the address:

  

  I build CHM HTML Help files. I have several times used link Hypertext/Popups for users to display an image of what is discussed below. As illustrated below, the link "grey color lines" should show the picture below. It is a hat of the order screen display the selected item in the toolbar. That's why you can see here.

  

  I first save it using the option to block display, then reopen it and change to display context menu size custom, which gives it an appropriate size.

  

  I have then all record and produce the CHM file. Open the chm file and clicking on the link displays this error box.

  

  I then click on the link hyperlink/Popup above it in the previous paragraph, and this image displays OK.

  

  I check the properties of link hyperlink/Popup and it is virtually the same. Jpg files are both in the RoboHelp projects directory, I have been working on this page.

  

  Switching mode of HTML... two hyperlinks are alike.

  

  There are only three differences in my process, I know:

  • the work of link Hypertext/Popups are made and updated 09/08/2015, and these errors are happening today, 24/02/2016.
  • I had to upgrade to Adobe Reader 15.010.20059.40980.
  • I think remember me a popup that says that I had to update to javascript for this version of Adobe Reader to work.

• Using the link between PDFs on a local PC (not on the web)

  Hello

  I am creating a PDF with links to specific locations on external PDF.

  Web search shows that we can do this by adding pages or named destination for the link.

  My question is made of "binding" between documents on PC work local open in Acrobat (Reader) recovered himself, instead of the documents on the web and the web browser via the plug-in?

  One related answer on thread on another forum (creation of a link to a pdf to mark an another pdf - Adobe Acrobat Windows) indicates that this feature works only when the PDF file is retrieved from a web server.

  If this does not work, could someone explain the technical background?

  My client wants to use the link between the files on the PC, so I need to make my client to know why it won't work.

  Thank you.

  I think that the page you found makes it more complicated, not less. In my view, in part because there are several different problems mixed with each other.

  The easiest way to post a link to a page in another PDF file is EXACTLY the same as link to a page in the same PDF: just create a link to GO to the VIEW. It's obvious only when we know, so people often end up with alternatives that are unnecessarily complicated.

  Named destinations are complicated, but they are good if you may need to change the target file and the file source link in the right place, even if it's another page. They need careful planning and a systematic approach.
