Thanks Oran! Having overwritten the original problem URL, I can't test it now to see if the hyphens were the problem. They are not causing a problem in the "fixed" URL. I hadn't realized that hyphens were on the do-not-use list for page-link URLs. I know that one should not use hypens in a

I have experienced issues with URL's that have hyphens. I did not include the http://. they began with www. These resolved to garbage in the pdf. URLs without http:// and no hyphen resolved correctly. Frame assumes the http:// in most cases. While your problem is somewhat different, I surmise

Perhaps a silly question,but is the entire link tagged with a single format? (e.g. "Link"). If it appears to be correctly tagged, I would save as MIF and go look at the link section. You can move the end of the tag to the end of the link text there, which should fix the situation.

No, the Amazon links are all amazon.com. But just to check, I added a link to a .info URL on the same page with the other test links, and it performed correctly. So the problem must be after the domain name in the URL. Carol At 02:40 PM 6/9/2017, you wrote: Grasping at straws: are the

Well, thanks to these suggestions, I'm starting to whittle down the problem but still don't know how to fix it. Disabling Acrobat's "Create links from URLs" feature helped me to identify the actual problem: When I select the link in the PDF and view its properties, the entire link text is

So aside from the link char tag, is the text also using the Hypertext marker? If not, I don't think that the FrameMaker publish/print process will create the actual hyperlink, and that what's been working so far is just Acrobats *viewing* feature. So the same PDF could have working links on one

Monique, without tampering with the hypertext marker, if you skinny down the page margins to force a URL to break to a second line and then print that page to .ps and distill, can you create my problem or does your resulting link in the PDF work correctly? ? Do you mean narrow my email message

Hi Penelope and Monique, Thanks for the suggestions. I print to PS and then distill using the Press Quality job option. Frame is set to "Generate Acrobat data." So unless I'm totally misunderstanding the process, when Frame prints to a .ps file, Acrobat itself really has nothing to do with

Hi Carol, I think Monique is on to something. Your URL works fine for me in FM 12 and Acrobat 11. But I can get it to break in the PDF if I remove the hypertext marker in Frame and then rely on Acrobat's "Create links from URLs" option. So, for some reason, even though the hypertext marker is
