Unwanted interactive elements in my PDF.

New Here ,
Sep 30, 2021 Sep 30, 2021

I am working on an interactive PDF form that is all working correctly, except for when I export it, the PDF itself has these little dropdown arrows with broken links, and one links to a website for flight information that I have never seen before. I do not see these in the interactive buttons, or as a hyperlink. How do I find out where this interactive selection is coming from? Basically this section of the document should not have anything interactive in it.

You made this from indesign? Can you show us what things look like from indesign?

You can check in Acrobat for links that may (for some reason) not be showing up in InDesign. To do so choose "Edit PDF" in the Tools Menu and then select "Add/Edit Web or Document Link" from the drop-down menu that appears. Any hyperlinks that are in the PDF will now be easily seen and can be deleted. After determining the location of the links this way you can go back to the InDesign file and see if there is anything resembling the links that you found in Acrobat and delete them.
