I wan't to create a PDF document, which contains hyperlinks to local files. E.g. when the PDF is downloaded, along with some files, the PDF contains hyperlinks to these files. Is this possible to achieve, and if so, how?
You could try the following. This method works in general for linking local files to HTML documents.
Link 1
Link 2
Notice the file:/// (3 slashes) before the location.

I'm using pdfkit to convert html to pdf which works great, but the external links in the pdf are web links.
The pdf viewer that we are using does not recognize the pdf web links, but file open actions do work.
I've been trying to change the pdf link annotation from a web link to a file open action with the pdfrw library.
I tried to edit the pdf annotation with the following code, but it's not working.
annot.A.update(pdfrw.PdfDict( S='/Launch'))
annot.A.update(pdfrw.PdfDict( F={}))
annot.A.F.update(pdfrw.PdfDict( Type='/Filespec'))
annot.A.F.update(pdfrw.PdfDict( F='(part-1.pdf)'))
annot.A.pop('/Type')
annot.A.pop('/URI')
The link shows up in the new pdf, but there is no action or destination file associated with it.
So after a similar battle today...
you can't define S='/Launch' as string like that. You have to use:
annot.A.update(pdfrw.PdfDict( S=pdfrw.PdfName('Launch')))
Similarly with filespec etc. You may also need to take the () off the filename - as that seemed to break it, at least in Apple Preview.
Is this possible? Can I open a PDF file which stored in my computer in an iFrame?
Here's an example from my project:
<iframe style="width:960px;height:720px" src="..\..\3C9DED0628F44190ABF92D3C14F14A14-2-D.pdf"></iframe>
This code is shows PDF file from project folder. But I need a src like:
D:\SCANNEDDOCUMENTS\2\3C9DED0628F44190ABF92D3C14F14A14-2-D.pdf
This file is stored in my pc. Can I show this PDF file? And then I want to make some buttons for other PDF files which in same directory. Like in picture:
When I clicked one of them, the iframe's src will replace other file's path. But first my problem is I can't show a PDF file from local path in iframe. What should I do?
I created a template for a document i want to use, in photoshop.
I want to share this document as a PDF file.
I want some of the text i made in photoshop to work as hyperlinks and direct ppl to websites.
How do i save a photoshop file as a PDF and get hyperlinks to work in the PDF file?
I have tried using the slice tool. It works to assign a url and target.
But when saved as a PDF the links do not work.
Anyone?
I know that indesign allows for saving pdf documents in either print or web format. the latter allows for hyperlinks to be available. if photoshop does not offer this you can always add them in acrobat (not reader) and then resave the .pdf.
I have a folder containing a Word-document (MS Office 2010), which has hyperlinks to some files within the same folder as the word document. However, these hyperlinks work only on my computer. Someone else with this folder cannot access these hyperlinks.
I want the links to work on any harddrive which contains this folder.
What do I do?
Is there any other way to address this problem? Basically the hyperlinks in the word file should work for anyone with the document. Is there some website on which these files can be uploaded, so that clicking on the word-hyperlink points to the corresponding URL?,
Make sure that your links are of the form file://./DocName.ext#location and then the links should point to the local folder - zip the lot for distribution.
I am going to developing an application, which is an epub. I have PDF files. I need to make those files as reflowable content(epub)... Then only the PDF files will be viewable in mobiles, tablets... etc.. Please suggest the solutions to make reflowable contents from the PDF...
If you don't mind using an open source software, go with Sigil.
If you want to learn innards of how to create by hand, or some tool of your own, Follow this. (This is a one month course, So you will not get all the content in one day, though).
Create the folder structure.
In a folder of your choice, create the following: META-INF (folder), OEBPS (folder), mimetype ( a file with exactly same name ).
Put application/epub+zip in the file mimetype. No spaces no lines.
Convert your PDF to text format. In Adobe acrobat, you will have file > export> .
Read the content from PDF, you will find some conclusions of how you can split them in to chapters or sub reading topics. Split according to the understanding of the book, and make so many text files.
Make sub folder structure. Make Images, Text, Styles (folders) content.opf, toc.ncx (files) inside OEBPS folder.
Put all your split files in Text folder created in step 5.
put all images extracted in pdf in Images folder
Put any styles (not describing here,) in Styles folder.
In the META-INF folder created in step 1, create a file called container.xml and fill with the following: <?xml version="1.0"?><container version="1.0" xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:opendocument:xmlns:container"> <rootfiles> <rootfile full-path="OEBPS/content.opf" media-type="application/oebps-package+xml"/> </rootfiles></container>.
If you are able to do these many things sincerely, ping again, I would try to tell you what you should put in content.opf, and toc.ncx in created in step 5.
As an example, You can use some example from my site. Download from here and use them with caution. Do not distribute.
