Hi everyone,
Frame version: 8.0p277
Adobe Acrobat Pro version: 8.2.5
I'm creating a giant PDF file (in Frame) of conference papers for a
professional conference. It will be burned on a CD. I have my giant PDF, and
I have a folder called Attachments. Inside the Attachments folder are a
whole load of PowerPoint Show files (.pps)
GiantPDF.pdf
Attachments
Filename.pps
Filename_2.pps
(etc. etc.)
In Frame, I created hyperlinks with this setting:
Special> Hypertext
Command: Message Client
Syntax box:
Message openfile Attachments/Filename.pps
(this seemed like the correct syntax for a relative pathname, based on
several internet resources)
On my computer, this works great. I can create my PDF, I can move my folder
structure elsewhere on my computer and things work.
When I create a CD and take it to a different computer, my giant PDF can't
find the PPS files. Why?
All internal links within the PDF work fine.
What am I doing wrong?
Are the .fm files from which you create the GiantPDF located in the
folder that contains the Attachments folder? If not, FM may be
substituting absolute paths.
