Mallesons Stephen Jaques www.mallesons.com Confidential communication I believe Acrobat 6 does this, really without you knowing. You can set your hyperlinks to relative but when you look at the path by editing the hyperlink the 'Label' displays an absolute path. However the link is actually relative. If you move your document somewhere else and have a look at the path it display it as absolute in the new location. So in essence the link is relative but it just displays as absolute. Steve -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Wil Paulk Sent: Wednesday, 22 October 2003 5:21 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: [PDFdev] Relative to Full pathing PDFdev is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com _____________________________________________________________ Our product has the ability to create links to external documents, either with a hard path (C:\Folder\Mypdf.pdf) or a relative path (.\Subfolder\mypdf.pdf). The problem is in Acrobat 6.0 links built with the relative path no longer work. It seems you must use the full path when creating links. My question is this: Does anyone know of a function in the SDK or maybe even a Windows API that will take a relative path and return the full path? There is a function like this in Cold Fusion but I can't seem to find one for anywhere else. Thanks.
