MS Office Forum / Publisher / Web Design / January 2005linked pdf files
I have been having trouble with hyperlinks in Publisher 2002 - it seems to be creating absolute rather than relative links. As a result, the pdf files I would like people to be able to access are not available (the link points to a location on my own computer/network drive). As suggested in FAQs, I have removed everything from the master page. However, the problem persists. Any other suggestions? (the site is www.monroecountyswcd.org) Just look at how the pdf files are linked in your Maps section to see the proper way to point to where you have uploaded the pdf files.

A common mistake is to browse to the file locally and hyperlink to it resulting in the link (correctly) pointing to your local file.

We worked previously with Publisher 2000, which was able to update links made to files on our hard drive and would copy those pdf files into the folder with all the other website files, to be uploaded to the server. > Are you loading the pdf file to the web server and then linking the > hyperlink to the files URL?
