All,

While creating PDF with hyperlink extra [dot] appearing in the link, when a paragraph having no enddot.

Screenshot 1: There were no [dot] in the hyperlink.

 

Screenshot 2: Checked link Property as well, there were no [dot]

 

Screenshot 3: When I use copy link location, [dot] appearing.

Anyone came across these type of issue, kindly suggest.

Its tagged PDF, is that accessibility feature adding the end paragraph [dot] if there were not [dot].

    Hi ​@Shaji25230243251z,

     

    Thanks for reaching out, and sorry to hear you’re experiencing this.

    I tested this on InDesign 21.3 on Windows 11 and was not able to reproduce the issue on my end. To help narrow this down further, could you please confirm the exact version of InDesign you’re using along with your OS details?

    Also, if possible, please share the InDesign file by packaging it via File > Package and uploading it here or via DM if the file is confidential. You can use any cloud sharing service like Google Drive or Dropbox. This will help me investigate the issue more closely on my side.

     

    Looking forward to your update.
