Loss of links between document versions

New Here ,

We are seeing that when we save a document we are working on as a new version, some of the manually created links and bookmarks are losing functionality. This is either that the zoom seetings are lost, or the linked page/location, or everything!

We havent been able to associate this with Save, Save As, Save As Other, all of which we use interchangebly.

All users are using DC. The files all contain enhanced/searchable scanned images, with Fast Web view enabled (although the links arent in the image based content).

Its causing lots of problems and rework - is anyone able to provide some advice please?

Unfortunately I cannot share the files and cannot recreate the issues by following the same steps in test documents.

The steps we are taking are to save a Word file to PDF, and then insert an additional original PDF (searchable images) into this same document. We then bookmark and link from the original Word based content to what came from the inserted PDF (searchable images). We set zoom properties, create a new header and footer and then save to enable fast web view. 

We most often see loss of zoom properties in the bookmarks and links. Sometimes the links stop working completely. Sometimes the content in the header changes from one version to the next.

The issues seem to be made worse when we have mutliple editors working on the same files at different times. It is driving us crazy!

 

Any help appreciated.

Make sure that the editors are all using Adobe Acrobat to edit the file, and not anything else, like Apple Preview...

Hi,

 

Thanks for your revert.

Are you facing this issue with the latest update of Acrobat(about a week back) are you were facing this from quite some time on previous updates as well ?

Thanks for looking at this.

We're running version 1.7 (acrobat 8.x), Pro DC 15.6.30523. Not sure if this includes recent updates - our IT have a habit of blocking!

Could the version be the issue?
