Link Inspector Query

The Link Inspector query enables you to view the status of all hyperlinks and cross references, and make any necessary changes prior to publishing.

The query shows the link status for links created with Linking plug-in (PDF) , Linking add-in (Word), native Word cross references, and internal (intra-document) native Adobe links.

You can run the Link Inspector query at the assembly, folder, leaf, volume, or document level. However, Link Inspector shows only the links within the selected element.

When a document has been modified, it must be saved as a different version in order for the changes to appear in the Link Inspector query.

Hyperlinks or cross references targeted to documents that do not exist in the current assembly, or that are targeted to versions of documents that do not exist in the current assembly, show as invalid links in the Link Inspector. They may be easily corrected by bulk retargeting them to the same destination document. This resets the target document to the current version assigned in the assembly.

To minimize confusion, unresolved links where the link source exists outside the current assembly do not appear in the Link Inspector query. The current assembly is based on how you last refreshed the query from Prepare for Publish:
  • If you refreshed the current sequence view only, the query shows only links in the current sequence.
  • If you refreshed the entire working assembly, stale links that target documents in the current assembly are also displayed.
In some cases, the link text does not come through from the PDF. This can occur when:
  • The text under the link is an image that cannot be interpreted by the OCR.
  • The text is not completely under the link.
  • The text is Japanese or Eastern characters.
