Default Newsletter not uploading with active links?
Hi, I have 4 issue of my newsletter uploaded to my website and the links in the July & June issue are not active.

Can anyone look at them and tell me why? I've spent so much time trying to figure it out, I have a killer head-ache!

Thanks!

Oh man...I knew I was forgetting something!

Here's the link to the newsletters, the links worked before I saved it as a PDF and uploaded them. The first two were done the exact same way and those links work just fine!

Hi Vicki, I assumed you were talking about an HTML page and was going to view your source code, I misunderstood the problem - I'm not an Adobe expert by any means so I'm afraid I don't have a good answer for you, sorry!

Viki, did you use the link tool to create the links in Acrobat?

Hi Viki,

If you did the news letter in Publisher and then converted it to PDF then you have to use the link tool in Adobe PDF to put your links back in.

No, I just saved June & July as a PDF and uploaded them. The exact same way as April & May's...the only difference is now I'm using an HP Pavillion desktop with vista and before I used a Dell Insprion laptop with XP.

Oh, I just realized something, I'm using Office 03 and not 07, could that be it? I'll hook the Dell back up and try it again...thanks for the idea!

I produce it in Publisher and save it as a PDF, I'm checking to see if I'm using the same PDF converter...

It's been suggested that I don't use Publisher to produce my newsletter. If I don't use Publisher, how do I produce it in the format I've chosen?

Arrrrrgggghhhh, this technical stuff is hurting my brain! LOL

What is the reason for not using Publisher to produce your newsletter? Is it because of the differences in 03 and 07?

You may be able to use Word but not as easily.
