hyper links in doc printed from internet don't work

[redmike]

Hi,

I have Acrobat 7

Not sure if I just need to change a setting or if I'm trying to do something which isn't possible.

I 'print' a page from the web and it opens up in acrobat and all the hyperlinks are blue but clicking on them does nothing.

Info would be appreciated.

thanks

Michael

When you're in Acrobat, you're not using a browser so internet links will not work.

If you're grabbing a pdf that's on the web, or want to grab more of a site, go to File menu/create pdf and select from web page. Determinw what yu want and then click on settings to set things up as you like.

thanks for your reply ..

"When you're in Acrobat, you're not using a browser so internet links will not work.

Even in my text editor links are 'active' so it's a bit disappointing if they aren't in Acrobat.

What I want to do is to save a webpage in Acrobat format and send it to someone as a pdf file.

I have tried opening adobe first and saying create a pdf from a webpage and then entering the url but this seems to be very hit and miss without knowing how many levels to enter.

Saving a page as a webpage and then creating in Acrobat from a file kind of works but with 'errors'.

regards
