Hello All,

 

I tried creating a pdf with hyperlinks but all hyperlinks in the same column only point to the first page of the document instead of the actual page. Can you please help me resolve this issue. Did anyone successfully create a pdf with multiple hyperlinks in the same column.

 

Thank You,

Sudha.

Hi:

  Typically, hyperlinks are links to external web pages, not internal document locations. These previous Forum postings discuss internal link within a PDF document:

  Without code no one can see if you are using LINK=, URL=, an HTTP address or an internal link to a page.

 

Hope this helps point you in a direction,

Cynthia

Thank You Cynthia for the reply.

 

So, Here is the code I have:

 

!S={url='docnm.pdf#page=26, 42' foreground=blue linkcolor=_undef_} Assigned, Page 26, 42.

 

So, in the above regardless of the page number 26, 42. It takes to the last page of the document.pdf.

 

Can this be updated in a way that both pages can be hyperlinked to the correct page numbers.

 

Thank You,

Sudha.

Hi:
That doesn't look like the correct format for the URL= style override. You don't show whether you're using ANCHOR= or how you determined the format of the link to use. I think that the best thing to do would be to open a track with Tech Support for more specific help.
