Pro or PDF Pack?

Hi, I produce reports for my business in Microsoft Powerpoint, on a MAC.  I then save these as PDF's to send to clients. However, I'm having the common problem that I can't get abbreviated hyperlinks to work for links to web pages (I can get a hyperlink to work if I leave the entire body of the link in the report) and I can't get the hyperlink anchors to work within the report (to toggle from one page to another such as from the Table of Contents to pages within the report and back). I'm assuming I need to update from Reader to either PDF Pack or Pro in order to have use of these hyperlinks in Adobe PDFs? I just don't want to buy more than I need. I'm currently able to sign and fill and do everything else with my Adobe Reader program that I need to...just not the hyperlinks.  Any advice is much appreciated. Thanks.

      Hey there.  Thank you so much for replying.  I actually ended up finding a solution. I bought a reasonable subscription to Zamzar, which is an online file conversion service.  It's working beautifully! My PPT reports look great in Adobe, can be opened by anyone, and have the full hyperlink functionality that I needed.  I'm all good.
