MS Office Forum / Word / Conversions / June 2008File links in word to PDF
I am using Word 2007 and on my document I have a number of hyperlinks to files on the local server. When I saveas a PDF document using the Microsoft addin all of the crossreference links work OK but all of the file links become www links and no longer work. Is this a bug or is there some setting I need to change? Thanks for any help. Fred See if Word Options > Advanced > General > Web Options > Files > Uncheck 'update links on save' helps.

In fact has anyone managed to get file hyperlinks to work when the document is saved as a PDF using the microsoft addin.

[quoted text clipped - 23 lines] >>> Thanks for any help. >>> Fred Hi Graham, I have tried it with and without the ISO 19005-1 compliant (PDF/A) check box. Its not just network references that don't work. Even if the file reference is to my C drive. For Example: In Word I create a hyperlink to "C:\Documents and Settings\me\My Documents\myfile.jpg" which works fine. The default screentip has "file:///C:\Documents and settings\me\My Documents\myfile.jpg" I then save/publish this word document using saveas pdf. I have tried it with and without the various options; ISO 19005-1 compliant option, Create Bookmarks option, and document structure tag for accessibility option. The pdf file has a link but the link is a world wide web link to "file:///C:\Documents%20and%20Settings\me\My%20Documents\myfile.jpg" so when I try to follow the link it opens internet explorer. I am using Adobe reader 8 to read the pdf file. I also openned the pdf file using acrobat 5.0 with the same result so it is Word/PDF addin that is creating the wrong link. Any other suggestions on what might be the problem. Fred > Obviously I don't have your network to play with but otherwise it works > for me.

I don't know whether you can dictate to Acrobat/Reader which application it uses for displaying images. You would need to ask in an Acrobat forum.
