Yes, I have tried it more than once, and we have had this disagreement
before. I even tested it again when the new version of primopdf came out. It
doesn't work!

I would love to have someone who has primopdf and not any other pdf creator
installed on their computer try the test to confirm what I am saying. Post a
URL in exactly the way you say you should write it so there will be no
confusion. I will even test it again. As you have the full version of
Acrobat installed, your machine is not representative of the primopdf only
installation.

In my test I am using www.primopdf.com version 2 and the Adobe Reader
version 6.0.05. I would also suggest to anyone willing to test this, in
addition to just pasting the text of the URL in a text box, to try inserting
the hyperlinks in the proper way and see if those survive the conversion. In
both cases, it fails for me.

And sure, post any information that you can find that confirms your
assertions. I would love to be wrong...but I don't believe I am.

Have you ever tried this? May I suggest that you open a .pdf file and try
it? If you would like, I will gladly send you one to prove my point. But
then again, you might not trust me. How about if we ask someone else to
create a simple .pdf file with nothing more than a web address in plain
text and convert it to a .pdf file with PrimoPDF? I'm telling you that the
cursor in Reader will recognize it. As soon as I can find the information
from an independent source (you never know whom I may have bribed), I'll
post it for you. How does that sound?

Don,

Contrary to what Joann continues to spout, if you produce a pdf with
primopdf hyperlinks do not survive the conversion. She just doesn't seem
to accept reality.

You could password protect the PDF file against editing and even
printing if you want.

The above is possible with PDF-XChange and probably with Adobe Acrobat.
I don't know about the popular Primopdf.

Something to explo

Hi,

I have a publisher file that i want to go on the web with Hyperlinks
and
all. I want it to be an Adobe file so that no one can edit it. Is
this
possible or is there a better way of doing this function?
