Word 2002 to Acrobat 7.08-links

[Rick Bishop]

Kirk:  Can you specify an example of a link in Word that is not working
after distilling?
Is is like file:///H:\myshare\myfolder\myfile.pdf ?
if so, try changing to  file:///167.167.167.16\myshare\myfolder\myfile.pdf
Rick

I have been waiting all weekend to submit this problem to the Monday morning
crew. When I create a PDF from a Word doc, the links either don't work or
refer back to the source document--except the outside hyperlinks, which
work. My publication is over 500 pages, containing over a thousand links,
and I don't want to format the links all over again in Acrobat.

I have the "add links to Adobe PDF" checked, but to no avail. I have Googled
this problem, and I've found it to be quite common with Acrobat 7, so I'm
hoping that one of you have a solution. If not, I will be entering the
dreaded Adobe Support Zone later this morning.

Any suggestions on this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!!

Kirk
