Hi,
I'm using PTC Mathcad 9.0 version for my documentation. I have included few onedrive & Google Drive links into the doc and saved the doc in PDF format. When try opening the PDF on chrome/adobe reader, i found that the google drive links were opening completely fine whereas Onedrive links were not opening. I was getting errors like "Link not found".
The same Onedrive link opens without any issue when opened in Mathcad tool also, when copy pasted it separately on chrome. I can see the issue is only when try opening from PDF.
So, anyone else experienced this issue before? Is there any solution to work around?
Thanks.
I'm surprised the Google drive link works!
I have never been able to get any links to transfer to the PDF file (created using Save As... PDF). I've tried several link locations and URL formats here to no avail:
What is the URL format you are linking to the Google drive?
The one Mathcad link that will link in a PDF is actually putting the link (https:// url) as the URL and not a piece of text that links somewhere; then Adobe PDF will convert it into something clickable. Otherwise you'll need to manually edit the PDFs to add links.
You are right @JeffH1 @DJNewman, I'm inserting the link in raw https://url format. It works unless you change the text to display setting from https://url to some other text. This is w.r.t Google doc link.
If I do the same for OneDrive link, it works only in Mathcad document. When I convert it into PDF, it tries opening the link but ends up in showing error like link broken or link not found.
I really don't understand why it doesn't work in PDF format?
