PDF email links
I had thought that Framemaker supported hypertext markers that allow tyou to create links for PDFs which launch a new email in the email application and prepopulate the address and subject line. However, I can't seem to remember how its done or find any reference to it in the documentation either (Frame 7.2) Is this possible and what is the format? Is there a way to populate the subject line with context relevant information, such as the current topic title?

Art replied: > Highlight your link text. > Special > Hypertext > To to URL > message URL mailto:somebody at somewhere.com Adding to what Art said, don't forget to apply a char tag to the link text (or the link will extend to the end of the pgf). And you specify a subject using "?subject=" (this isn't an FM thing, it's an HTML thing), so the "Go to URL" command looks like this: message URL mailto:somebody at somewhere.com?subject=somesubject > Is there a way to populate the subject line with context > relevant information, such as the current topic title? Wouldn't each hyperlink have its own context? The link is in a topic, right? Paste the topic title in when you create the link. You might be able to script the whole process, but the the title has to go into the link at the time of its creation; there's no way to for Acrobat to "look it up" later. HTH! Richard -- Richard G.
