Hi community,

I have a planner with 605 pages (with the cover), from page 2 to the end, I have a side bar that contains the 12 months, when someone clicks on it, it gonna head over that specific month, I have added hyperlinks to the Page 2, now I need a way to automate pasting only hyperlinks to all the other pages, layout already exist in all pages, but I need to paste hyperlinks, adding them manually will waste my time and effort (see attached photo to see what I am talking about). If someone could help me with the javascript because I am not familiar with programming

Correct answer JR Boulay

You cannot duplicate or copy-paste Link objects.

You must use Buttons form fields instead. Create them on the first page, select all, right-clic on any one and choose "Duplicate across pages".

After links/buttons creation just "save as" the PDF using Acrobat Pro, if you need to optimize it do it before links/buttons creation.

 

Chrome is a spyware, and also a web browser. It's not a PDF viewer, you should not use it.
