How do I convert a word doc into a PDF that will retain the hyperlinks? I've got Adobe Acrobat Pro.

Cheers

    I just save the word file as a pdf and the links remain as they were in the doc file inside the pdf. The should work similar i guess for you.

      Thanks but I've tried that and the links are not clickable in the pdf?

        Hi,

        I use Open Office which seems to have the answer. Just create a normal document with links included and then when you come to save it use the "export as pdf" option. The links in the pdf document remain intact.

        Hope this helps and good luck with it.

          I agree. I've used Open Office when I've had trouble with Word. Once I had trouble formatting a link in the footer in Word, so I tried Open Office and it was fast, easy and trouble free. There's also a free converter online I use a lot - freepdfconvert (dot) com. Works great.

        I have Adobe Pro too. I just use Control+P, and choose print as pdf.

        That works for me.
