Hyperlink modify during pdf creation from word

Hello,

i add some web hyperlink in my word using an internal URL protocol "mylink:".

In MsWord my link ("mylink://051245751212;tot@server") works perfectly.

But when i make a pdf creation, this Web link was transforme in file link and some stuff are adding before.

for example my file MsWord files was store in "d:\temp\in" the result of the transformation of my link was "D\temp\in\mylink://051245751212;tot@server" and the type of the link is no longuer a web link (URL) but file link (GOTOR).

If in my MsWord i placed a web link like "http://www.adobe.com" the transformation is OK. Why my internal protocol doesn't have the same traitement? How i can do for Acrobat keep the details of my link like in the MsWord (Type :URL, URL:mylink:...)?

I'am using Acrobat 7.1 Pro.

Can you help me?

My Product Information:
Acrobat Pro 7.0.9, Windows

thanks for your answer , unfortunally it doesn't works.

I try to print from MsWord to "Adobe Pdf" but the link text was underline in blue but not clickable, like if my link was not transform.

i watch in different option of distiller and adobe printer and all it's ok.

When i'am using the adobe printer i have no link at the end of my transformation, and when i'am using Acrobat Pro 7.1 my url link was transform in relative file link.

Can i change it by configuration ("register key"), or by Acrobat Plugin or another solution?

ps : sorry for my english!

I check all the option and No one talk about this case and allow me to fix it.

Do you have an idea?

if i add/adjust my link with acrobat tool it's ok, but it can't be a solution for my problem.

The aim it's to create link in MsWord and that it will be the same in acrobat result, without adjust manually all link in all document generated.

Hi bdupre,
Your link has the look/feel of a URL alias for a UNC path.
From the file specification discussion in ISO 32000 and the PDF References that preceded the ISO standard I suspect you'll need to take a more 'traditional' approach to developing your intra/inter document links.
