    Question Output Report to PDF - Add Hyperlinks to the Embedded Subreports

    Hello'

    I have a report with a brief summary on the first page. (counts etc) The rest of the pages are the data.
    How can I automate embedding hyperlinks in the initial summary page to whichever page the sub reports happen to fall onto (they are continuous reports which have can grow/shrink turned on, so not always going to be sure which page they will fall onto).

    Didn't find the easy answer searching... hoping the moderators here will come through!



    thx

    AFAIK, the code to manipulate the PDF document to add hyperlinks to PDF pages depending on which pages data appeared in would be very complicated, if even possible. The hardest part would be determining the page.

    I am going to guess the only way to accomplish this is by automating Acrobat via a paid version of Acrobat. It sounds like you need a Bookmark, not a hyperlink. Here is a link that discusses creating bookmarks from a Word Doc. Maybe you can export to a word template to make the automation easier.
