Hello fellow Techwr-lers,
I am having a strange problem that I could really use some help with.
I have some Word 2003 documents in which I have inserted URL links.
When I convert my documents to PDF, not all the links make it through
to the PDF. Some do, some don't.
I am using Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Professional.
Is there any secret to this? Why would some make it and not others? I
have tried creating the PDF many ways, using Save As..., printing to
distiller, using PDF maker, etc.
I will search the Adobe user forums as well, but since I'm on a very
tight deadline (this was due the Friday just passed) I thought I
would turn to the "experts".
I'd appreciate any suggestions/help!
