Hello, I am hoping to find an answer to this question. I have tried searching for this topic, but can't seem to find an answer.
Environment:
* Adobe Acrobat Pro 7.0
* MS Office 2003 SP3
* XP Pro SP2
Issue:
I have a user who has created a Powerpoint presentation. Within the presentation he created links to some PDF documents (stored in the same location as the Powerpoint presentaiton). When he clicks on the links, the file seems to want to open, but just as quckly it shuts down, thus, unable to view the file.
I also noticed that if I tried the same PPT file on a machine that is running Acrobat *Reader* 7 or 8, the PDF link seems to work fine.
Is this a known issue? If so, could someone please direct/provide some answers?
Greatly appreaciated,
Xavier Reyes
It sounds like a file association issue on the computer that won't display properly. From a Windows Explorer window, choose Tools > Folder Options > File Types. When the registered file types list loads, scroll through to see what's defined as the program for opening PDF files. If necessary, click Change to locate and select a program.donna.
