@@user-ju1fm8rn1g Thank you so much for watching! Can you share a bit more information about your question? Adobe Acrobat isn't dependent on Windows. It also works on macOS and is available via a web browser on Chromebook.
@@erinwrightwriting I need independent tool which can work to create navigation link in any pdf editor just like chrome extension If you know that tell me, I don't want you waste your time going to search about that
Thank you Erin, once again for this wonderful videos. I don't know what would I have done without you. Your tutorial makes it very easy to understand all these complicated tools and command. I have learnt a lot from you. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. Have a great day, Erin. One of your subscriber from India.
@@rajeshwarihemmadi3229 Great question! I am not aware of a way to delete all the buttons from within the workspace. However, you can select the first button in the Field pane and then press and hold Ctrl as you select the other buttons. Then, right-click the first button and select Delete from the shortcut menu.
Excellent question! In the past, I would have said no; however, Adobe recently announced an upgrade to the Action Wizard that will allow you to perform the same action on multiple PDFs at once. I haven't had time to experiment with it yet, but here is the link from Adobe's What's New page (this link will only apply to March 2024): helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/whats-new.html.
Very well explained and at the right speed. Your diction is super, I could understand every word most clearly! Been a while since I've delved into Adobe to create links - seems though the first page nav does not go to the top of the page. May be doing something incorrect? Keep up the super job!!!
Hello, Morton. Thank you for your kind comment! Unfortunately, I wasn't able to recreate the issue where the first-page nav button doesn't go to the top of the page, so I'm afraid I don't have any suggestions. If the problem persists, you may want to reach out to Adobe Support. I wish you all the best with your PDF project!
Great tutorial thank you. I was able to follow along and create my navigational buttons on my pdf. I then had to make a change and now my buttons do not work. I tried to edit the buttons, delete and reinstall them and i can't get them to work. What am i missing. I searched your channel for an edit button tutorial, but can't find one?
Thank you for watching! I'm sorry to hear that you are having trouble. The buttons in Acrobat can be temperamental, so my best suggestion is to delete the buttons that aren't working correctly, save the PDF, close the software, and then reopen it and reinsert the buttons. Best of luck!
Hi Erin, thanks for the detailed steps! is there a way to just navigate the pdf based on the buttons and lock the usually way of moving to previous/next page via arrows or mouse wheels? I'm trying to build an interactive pdf here with buttons linked to different pages, so it might not come in as continuous sequence.
That is an interesting question! You could set the PDF to open directly in full-screen mode so the interface is not visible to your readers. However, I don't believe there is a way to deactivate the reader's interface if they choose to exit full-screen mode. I wish you all the best with your project!
I need to create a navigation return backward button to the previous file, not in the same document. For example the first time I open file A then I open file B when I click backward it will be back to file A. Do you know how to do it? I know how to do in PDF x-editor only but i want to do it in Acrobat pro.
Hi, I have created a button in all pages of pdf with 'button property action (view > page navigation > previous view)' For ex, in my current page (page no 5), if I did zoom in/out, then when I click on button. My expectation is it should go to previous page, but it's doing zoom in/out. Can I know how we can ignore zoom in/out, while click on button.
Hi Erin. Thank you. Will this work for a document that has already has tabs included. I need to make the tabs that I have already created within my document to become hyperlinks to navigate the material.
Thank you for watching! Yes, this should work in your existing document. However, there are a number of ways to create links/buttons in Acrobat, so you may want to experiment a bit. I have a separate tutorial on buttons to page views that you may find helpful (th-cam.com/video/SrPaJ16-hlk/w-d-xo.html) and another for internal links (th-cam.com/video/4Gvrcm8QUcY/w-d-xo.html). I wish you all the best with your PDF project!
When I duplicate the button, the orientation of the button is not correct on pages that have been rotated to landscape. Is there an easy way to change this. I have documents that are over a thousand pages, containing spreadsheets that are rotated to landscape view.
That is a very interesting question. Unfortunately, I am not aware of a way to change the button orientation based on page orientation. However, that may be something that can be done in InDesign instead of Acrobat. I wish you the best of luck!
Thank you for the clear instructions! I can create the navigation button, but I would like it to point it to our TOC page which the button would appear on all pages. So for example, when the reader is on page 4 and wants to view the TOC page, they can click on the button on that page 4 and it will take them to the TOC page on pg. 3. I can't seem to get it to do that. How can I get it to do that? Appreciate any info.
That is an excellent question! Instead of using a navigation button to your TOC, create a "page view" button instead. I have a separate tutorial explaining that process: th-cam.com/video/SrPaJ16-hlk/w-d-xo.html. I wish you all the best with your PDF!
Hi Erin, thanks a lot for this as I found it very useful! I wanted to use these for my monthly reports, so is there a way to migrate these between pdf files without having to create them all over again every month?
Hi, Mathew, that is a great question! You can cut and paste navigation buttons; however, in practice it doesn't always work as planned. So, my best suggestion is to create a template for your monthly report. I am planning to a tutorial on that topic, but in the meanwhile, where is an article from Adobe support that you may find helpful: helpx.adobe.com/sign/using/create-document-template.html.
so, I tried to apply this procedure to a footer dedicated to linking to a ToC, but the internal link creation function treated the the selected text as standalone, not as a footer, and so applied the link only to that one instance of the footer. so, how does one create an internal link from a footer? many thanks
Thank you for watching my video. Rather than using text already in your footer, you may want to try creating the button as shown in this tutorial and positioning it in the footer area. Then, change the properties (remove the background color, border, etc.) so it looks like normal footer text. Best of luck!
Hey plzz help. I already have a pdf it has a add and remove button when i click on add button the new page has a text written in the bottom and it's won't edit or remove. How do i remove that please.
@@erinwrightwriting i want to remove the text which i can do if i go in rich media option. But whenever i used the add page button which is on the page of the pdf the new page will have that text in the bottom again.
@@j_abass Another way to add a blank page is to select Blank Page from the menu in the Thumbnails pane or use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Shift + t. I wish you all the best!

I have scanned the book in PDF format. and I have inserted (ADDED), "INTERNAL LINK TO TOC, CREATE NAVIGATION BUTTONS ACROSS THE BOOK & STICKY NOTE, through your videos. "YOU'RE MY MENTOR". Dear Erin, I am seeking your help. Now I facing two difficult things to be added in the book. 1) First How can we "HIGHLIGHT" a sentence or paragraph in the book means while reading a book if anyone wish to highlight a sentence of paragraph. and 2) Second How can applied or insert a "BOOKMARK" across the book. means if anyone wish to bookmark any page he can. I have search lots of videos on the net but HELPLESS
Thank you so much for watching my tutorials! Your readers' ability to highlight and bookmark text will be determined by the software they are using to read the PDF rather than settings you can establish in Adobe Acrobat. For example, if your readers are using Acrobat Reader, they can select Tools > Comment > and then select the Highlight tool. Unfortunately, Reader doesn't provide a bookmark tool; however, many of the other free reading apps that come with tablets and phones do have bookmarking features. I wish you all the best with your manuscript!
