Hyperlinking an object
Hyperlinking an object such as a box, Quick Button, a word, or a picture means
that a reader of your PDF document can trigger an event by clicking on the
object. The event might be a jump to a different page, the appearance of an
email composition window, the display of a graphic, text, or media file, or a
jump to an anchor attached to a target object.
To hyperlink an object:
1. Use the Pointer Tool to highlight the region of text, or select an
object.
2. Click
Hyperlink on the Standard toolbar.
3. In the Hyperlinks dialog, click to select the link destination type, and
enter the specific hyperlink target—an Internet page, an email address,
local file, or an object's anchor.
4. Click OK.
As a visual cue, hyperlinked words are underlined and appear in the color you've
specified in the Scheme Manager.
To modify or remove a hyperlink:
1. Use the Pointer Tool to select the object, or click for an insertion
point inside the linked text.
2. Click
Hyperlink on the Standard toolbar. The Hyperlinks
dialog opens with the current link target shown.
• To modify the hyperlink, select a new link destination type
and/or target.
• To remove the hyperlink, click the Remove button.
Removing a hyperlink does not remove the underlying object or
text.
