I want to export a word document to a pdf document with working links.
All links such as cross-reference to another section work in the pdf document. Only the citation links which point to the bibliography at the end of the document get lost during the export.
I use the citavi add-on in word to create the citation links and the bibliography.
I already tried saving the word document as pdf and exporting it.
Is there a way to preserve those citation links?
Thank you!
I found a solution. The not working links are related to the Citavi Add-in.
First you have to activate "Link in-text citations to references in the bibliography" under "Options" in the Citavi Add-in Tab in Word.
Then under "Convert" you can click "Save a copy as static text (with hyperlinks)".
After this just save the document as pdf and the links are adopted in the pdf document.

I used a Microsoft Word template to make a few documents, and I then converted those documents into PDFs by Saving as PDF. I'm displaying the PDFs in a web page but all the PDFs have the same title on the web page. I cannot find anywhere where there is a "title" for a Word document and I'm nearly at my wits end.
I figured it out. I was looking at Word instead of the PDF itself. I can change the title funder File > Properties in Adobe Acrobat Pro DC.
I'm writing a Markdown document and want to make references back to specific pages in a local PDF document. I can achieve this with PDF documents on the web by appending #page=<page number> to the end of the URL. Is the an analogous way to do this with a local PDF file? I've got this Markdown document and the corresponding PDF in a repo on Github. I'd love to be able to examine the Markdown file on there and click on the links to the corresponding PDF and have the referenced page load. Appreciate any suggestions you may have!
I have tried finding a way to generate an XFDF file from a Word document, because I have some important information in my Word document which I need to use in my PDF.
So I wanna get the XFDF and merge it with my PDF.
have you tried to opening your PDF in Adobe Acrobat and exporting as XFDF format instead of using Word?
Main Menu -> Forms -> Manage form data -> Export data (Select XFDF Format)
Hope I'm of assistance, free for any questions.
Good luck -Stuart
I want to make a word editor for IOS in which I can open MS-Word documents and edit them like in MS Office and after that I can save the document. Can anyone help? I couldn't find any helping code. I tried to find the SDK forms-office but that is not available. I have tried google sdk for text documents which is DrEdit https://github.com/googledrive/dredit
Open Office can read and write MS-Word Documents, and their code is open. Probably hard to find the right passages, but better that reverse engineering the format yourself.
The code is here:

You can try with ThatPDF . Its basically for annotation of PDF but you can customise it for word documents. Here is the Github link for the open source project.
Is there any pdf version which allow for automatic(or manual) addition of http source of document ?
Scenarion of this problem from user side looks like that :
I found disire document in pdf format on web.
I save it.
In a few months I open this document and I wish to find the web page where I've found it.
It would be nice to have somewhere address of that file, of course it could be manually written in soe text file, but usually there are problems with copy+paste of pdf documents titles.
If you can modify your PDF files before sending them to the browser, then there are several places where you could put the URL where the document came from:
You could use a node in the "logical structure" tree (chapter 14 part 7 of the PDF reference document). This tree will show up in Acrobat Reader in the "Model Tree" tab.
You could add a hyperlink annotation to the top or bottom of each page, or the first page, or in a new page that you can add at the beginning or at the end of the file. I personally think this is the best approach since the link will be click-able.
You could add a button field on a page that fires a GoTo action that is linked to the source URL. Actions are explained in chapter 12 - Interactive Features of the PDF reference document.
You could add a bookmark(outline) that points to a named destination that is linked to the source URL. Named Destinations are also explained in chapter 12. This approach can also be used with just one click, and it is possible to hide the bookmarks tab if we will not use it.
You could add it as a Document property as #Bobrovsky said.
PDF allows you to add custom values to document information dictionary (see 14.3.3, "Document Information Dictionary" in PDF Reference). You might put your URL there. Adobe Reader will show custom values in Document Properties dialog on the Advanced tab.
Starting from PDF 1.4 (Acrobat 5x and later) you might add URL to XMP Metadata stream referenced from document catalog (see 14.3 Metadata in PDF Reference). Adobe Reader will show metadata properties too if you put them in Custom scheme.
Acrobat Professional could be used to add custom values or XMP metadata. Almost any PDF library that can open and save PDFs could be used for the task too.
I think there is no other places in a PDF document that you can use to store your information.
