    Try opening it with word or some type of text editor. Then edit the links. IF not try copying the whole text over and save it as a pdf again.

    I'm pretty sure you can edit and save as pdf with openoffice.

    Is this your PDF? Do you have the source document? Just edit in the source. If not, copy the text, past it into notepad, save it as a txt file. Open the txt file in word. Edit and include the link. If it still doesn't work. It may be your PDF software. Try freepdfconvert.com. It's free.

      That site crops the PDF after 2 pages and asks you to subscribe for a monthly Fee

        Hu? Never had that problem before... I have actually made a 600 page PDF with it before. Too bad...

    Copy the text like a picture and then get Omnipage program. This is a text recognizer program and it will re-create your entire text.... after that you can manage your links. Good luck.

    Listen, grab any PDF to Word converter. Convert the file to Word, remove the links and then convert the file to PDF again.

    If you don't know any PDf to Word converters, just Google the keywords "convert PDf to word".

    Best of luck.

    Unlock your PDF at pdfunlock (Google it up)
    Then you can do whatever you want with it )

    If you can not copy and paste it that means the person who created the .pdf has locked it to prevent people from stealing it.

    The only way you can now open the locked .pdf is to have the password the author used to lock it. Even Adobe Acrobat can't open it without the password.

    Go to the person who wrote it and have him/her make the changes for you.

    EDIT: I just tried pdfunlock on one of my own locked documents, it unlocked. I could then copy and past eventhough I had locked out that function when I created the document.

    The question I have is "Whose file are you trying to unlock and change?" You do have permission to do so don't you?
