Hyperlinks in word
Hello.
I have a word document I have put a table of contents into. I have inserted hyperlinks into the TOC. I then convert the word document to an Adobe PDF file. When I click on one of the hyperlinks in the TOC, it wants to open the word document instead of just going to the place in the PDF I created. It's going to the right place (in the word document), it's just not going to the right document. (word doc vs. pdf doc). Can you tell me what I am doing wrong? Appreciate an help you can give. Thanks. ...Chip.. |

Hyperlinks in word
You say: I have inserted hyperlinks into the TOC. This makes me ask: How
did you create the TOC? If you created it manually and created the hyperlinks e.g. by using "Paste as Hyperlink", I think that this could be what causes your problem. I don't know which version of Word and Adobe Acrobat you are using but I have seen with Adobe Acrobat 6 that hyperlinks created using "Paste as Hyperlink" pointed to the Word document instead of the PDF document. You should create the TOC in Word using Insert Reference Index and Tables Table of Contents tab.

Thanks. I did create the hyperlinks using what you describe in the 2nd
paragraph below, but I have to admit not fully understanding what the help file was telling me. Thanks for the advice and the link below. -- ...Chip.. "Lene Fredborg" wrote in message ...
