TPop Posted July 17, 2019 Report Share Posted July 17, 2019 Using Nitro Pro 11.0.7.425 I have been using the "Print to PDF" for Word 2016 documents. However, hyperlinks in Word 2016 documents are not preserved (have not tried other Office apps). This is the only issue I have come across with "Print to PDF". Pictures and text are fine. "Convert links" and "Highly editable (with layout)" are checked in Nitro but hyperlinks are not preserved; they show as regular text (though blue and underlined). Also, in "Support Tools"/"Advanced", the "Use intelligent PDF creation in the MS Word add-in" is checked (all checkboxes are checked). Also, in "Support Tools"/"Advanced", in "PDF Creation" all Office products are checked. The links in Word are created using bookmarks and Word is set to follow hyperlinks with "CTRL + click".

TPop Posted July 23, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2019 (edited) Thank you for the suggestion. Downloaded, and installed, Pro 11 x64. Same issue. When printing to PDF the hyperlinks are not preserved. Created a new document (nothing but 10 bookmarks) and printed this document using the newly updated Nitro 11. Hyperlinks were not preserved. Send you the newly created files, docx & pdf. Edited July 23, 2019 by TPop Clarification of message content Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angie B Posted March 10, 2020 Report Share Posted March 10, 2020 (edited) My hyperlinks are also inactivated during the conversion to pdf when using Nitro Pro. Urgently seeking solution. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Edited March 10, 2020 by Angie B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valerie Mattos Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 My word hyperlinks are preserved when I convert it to pdf in Nitro only if I do a 'save as' from word to pdf, but not when I 'print to pdf'. I think the print to pdf is more of a reader-type form and doesn't preserve the hyperlinks that way. Hope that helps. I am having a problem with preserving the hyperlinks when I 'replace' pages. I have placeholders in my Word doc for figures and such. After I convert the document to pdf in Nitro, and replace the hyperlinked placeholder, the links don't work anymore. So when I use Nitro I have to manually put them back in. I do not have this problem using the 'replace' page technique in Adobe Pro. I'm just wondering if there is a way in Nitro to preserve the links using the 'replace' page? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
