False URLs?!

Post by humam2104 »

I love PDFXchange, it's a very nice software! but I can't understand what's happening here?
You can see in the attachments that I tried to select the first sentence of a paragraph but it treated it as a hyperlink!?
What's wrong, other PDF readers don't do this? is there a fix for that?

Hi humam2104,

Thanks for that - I've tested here and see the same thing. I've created an internal development ticket to track the progress, so please reference RT-4854 when requesting status updates.

Re: False URLs?!  SOLVED

Hello humam2104,

We have discovered that the root of this issue is the text within the file itself (which is likely caused by "Adobe InDesign CS$ (6.0.6)", which was used to create the document):
image.png
This causes not only our software, but numerous others to create a temporary link where this text is. You can disable this feature in the Editor from the preferences (Ctrl+K) under Page text:

Unfortunately, it looks unlikely that there is anything we can do to prevent this, as it is entirely possible that this text could be an intended link.

We are still looking into it, but at this time cannot make any promises for a change, as we are unsure there even is anything for us to "resolve" on this front.

Kind regards,
Dan McIntyre - Support Technician
