Hi All,
Would like to know if i can copy/paste links from one PDF to another - but exactly to thesame place as in original documents.
So i have 5 exactly the same PDFs from Layout, but each of them is in another language (Page 1 SLO.pdf, Page 1 GER.pdf, Page 1 USA.pdf etc.). As the links for the products shows to the same webshop, i want to create links only in the PDFs with primary language (Page 1 SLO.pdf) and then copy paste to another PDFs (Page 1 GER.pdf, Page 1 USA.pdf etc.).
But if i do this with link selection tool, i can copy all the links in primary pdf, but when i paste the links in another PDF they appear at random position... A would like the pasted links to appear exactly in the same position as in original document.
Any idea?
Br,
With that said, the idea of parking an annotation (the "link" is a type of annotation that is associated with PDF page content) has been discussed in the AUC JavaScript Forum.

My take on what I have read is that something might be done with Acrobat JavaScript.
However, my impression is that it is not a particularly "simple task".
Using testing copies of your PDF files you might play with this:
Open a PDF that has the links.
Use the replace page feature of Acrobat (in Pro - do not know if Standard has this).
Replace the viewed page of the open PDF with the page of the PDF that does not have the links.
Page content is replaced. Link annotations remain.
You may have to adjust placement.
This is to be expected.
Text strings of like/similar content but in different languages will never have 100% congruency from line to line.
The English "caleb has blue eyes" is "caleb ha blou wowo" in Papiamento.
The character strings are off by one.
Are larger delta would be a resonable expectation as words flow to sentences then to paragraphs, no?
