If the PDF file was being corrupted going cross-platform, you’d have many more problems than hyperlinks that don’t respond. Perhaps there is an issue of Reader not properly receiving the mouse clicks. An experiment you might want to try is increasing the display magnification for a page area with problematic links and see if the links still act dead. If not, my hypothesis about receiving the mouse clicks may be correct. Otherwise you may have stumbled onto a new bug which you should report to Adobe (bug report form available from the Adobe website – be prepared to provide sample offending PDF file).<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;color:#1F497D'> - Dov<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><table class=MsoNormalTable border=1 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width="100%" style='width:100.0%;border:none;border-top:solid #6A737B 1.0pt'><tr><td width=43 style='width:32.25pt;border:none;padding:0in 15.75pt 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><img width=43 height=72 id="Picture_x0020_1" src="cid:image001.png@01CDF500.43EF8C30" alt="Description: D:\Documents\Adobe Artwork\2012\Adobe Products\E-mail Signature\adobe_logo_web.png"></span><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p></o:p></span></p></td><td width=580 valign=bottom style='width:435.0pt;border:none;padding:0in 0in 0in 0in'><table class=MsoNormalTable border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width=677 style='width:507.75pt'><tr><td width=218 valign=bottom style='width:163.55pt;padding:0in 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal style='line-height:11.25pt'><b><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'>Dov Isaacs</span></b><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'><br>Principal Scientist<br>Adobe Systems Incorporated</span><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p></td><td width=168 valign=bottom style='width:126.2pt;padding:0in 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal style='line-height:11.25pt'><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'>+1 408.536.2896 (tel)<br>+1 408.242.5161 (cell)</span><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='line-height:11.25pt'><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'><a href="mailto:isaacs@adobe.com"><span style='color:black'>isaacs@adobe.com</span></a></span><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p></o:p></span></p></td><td width=291 valign=bottom style='width:218.0pt;padding:0in 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal style='line-height:11.25pt'><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'>345 Park Avenue<br>San Jose, CA 95110-2704 USA<br><a href="http://www.adobe.com/"><span style='color:black'>http://www.adobe.com</span></a></span><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p></td></tr></table></td><td valign=bottom style='border:none;padding:0in 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'> </span><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p></o:p></span></p></td></tr><tr><td colspan=3 style='border:none;padding:0in 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></td></tr></table><p class=MsoNormal><i><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#00B050'>Feel free to print this e-mail if your needs dictate hard copy.<br>There is no need to feel guilty about printing!<br>Paper is renewable and recyclable.<o:p></o:p></span></i></p><p class=MsoNormal><i><span style='font-size:7.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#00B050'><o:p> </o:p></span></i></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:7.0pt;color:black'>ISAACS-MOBILE.corp.adobe.com<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div style='border:none;border-left:solid blue 1.5pt;padding:0in 0in 0in 4.0pt'><div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #E1E1E1 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><b>From:</b> framers-bounces@lists.frameusers.com [mailto:framers-bounces@lists.frameusers.com] <b>On Behalf Of </b>Robert Lauriston<br><b>Sent:</b> Thursday, January 17, 2013 9:28 AM<br><b>To:</b> Martha Lee;
