Hi,
I have a PDF form designed using Lifecycle designer.
It has text field and added/used "Insert Hyperlink" option.
When this form opens in the window and this hyperlink is clicked on the form, hyperlinked page opens on the same window ( PDF form lost).
How can I this hyperlink to open in a new window without losing original PDF opened?
Thanks,
Gombear
