Chris, I have uninstalled 6.0 from my machine, so unfortunately I can't give you exact details, but if I remember correctly, you can choose the "Select Text" tool and simply highlight where you want the link to go, right click, and choose "add link". This may be easier than drawing the box. The other steps may be just as long and tedious though...I don't really remember anymore. Give it a try and see if this helps any. If not, anyone else have any ideas? Wendy >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 10/18/03 00:46 AM >>> Hi, I've been building manuals in Acrobat since version 3. To set a link, you drew the marquee. set the view and went to the document you wanted it to go to, hit Ok and you were done. On a dual monitor set up with Ari's link tool it was a pure joy to link files. Just tried to use Acrobat 6 today. the link structure is a lot different, had to actually open the "Help" file to see how to make a link. : ) The directions have 4-5 steps that didn't exist before. If I understand this correctly I need to now draw a link box, select Ok since I'm linking to a new document, It closes, I then double click the link box, select the Action tab, Select the action of "Go to a page in another document", then select Add, select Open in option, Select Browse, go to the file I want to open, set the page number, select OK, Delete the previous Action, Select Close. Is this correct???? Did something not get loaded correctly? Is there an option to shut this "feature" off? Did they really add this many steps to the process, or am I missing something simple? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Chris To change your subscription: http://www.pdfzone.com/discussions/lists-pdfbasics.html
