Rebecca: Might I clarify? You own Acrobat Standard, yes? You aren't depending on the PDF print driver that comes with Word, yes? I take it, regular Adobe Acrobat installs itself in Word so that it will generate linked PDFs from a Word file when the proper "plug-in" is called into play, right?
At least in Word 2000, from which I have yet to upgrade, the PDF print driver does no more than create a static, non-html linked product. The capability of clicking an icon in Word and generating a linked PDF fascinates me, but is beyond me. ~ Don Spencer -----Original Message----- From: Rebecca Hopkins [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, June 23, 2006 6:14 AM To: Don and Judy Subject: RE: [stclwrsig-l] PDFs from Word with hyperlinks intact Don, Actually, it was a lot easier than that. The Acrobat Standard software didn't install right - the menu options in Word were missing. I un- and re-installed and now it works fine.
