RE: [Swftools-common] Unable to convert the PDF pages with External Link enabled

[MG Balaji]

Hello Ananth,

I know that there is a URL at the bottom of the PDF. But I am asking about whether the link has given for that URL using Adobe acrobat link tool or not. Because the sample pdf doesn't have the link box over the URL.

Thanks,

Balaji

Hi Balaji,

You can find the link in the bottom right of the page. The link is enabled in the PDF. It is targetting "http://pedagogie2.ac-reunion.fr/lettres/le_parfum/Entrer.htm" this location.

Hello Ananth,

Are you meaning that, without adding the link box for the URL using the link tool (using Acrobat) the external links should enabled in swf ? Because I have not find any of the links in the sample pdf what you have provided.

Balaji

Worth a try Anarth.  If you have any luck let know!

Unfortunately, as far as I am aware, apart from a couple of notable exceptions,
most of the Open Source PDF editing and manipulation programs out there, seems
to rely heavily on the Xpdf library.  If the the issue *is* with Xpdf, which I
suspect it has to be, it will show itself with most other programs you try.

I can't remember whether you are running Windows, or a Linux based system,
or both.  Anyway, here's the Wikipedia list of pdf software just in case
you haven't checked it:

Good luck!


Chris.
