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

A remote possibility: The publish process isn't actually creating the hyperlink, but it appears so because Acrobat generally (by default, I believe) creates links from URLs (via the "Preferences > General > Create links form URLs" setting). If this is the case, then I'd guess it's Acrobat's

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

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

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

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

Does "Adobe PDF" appear in your printers list? Adobe changed the displayed name for the Distiller virtual printer at least four times that I can remember, but it's been "Adobe PDF" for a while, now. -FR From: Framers
