Delete Links

Use the Delete Links tool to automate the deletion of hypertext links from one or more PDF files.

To delete links using Delete Links:

  1. Select SmartDesk > Link and Bookmark Tools > Link Tools > Delete Links.
  2. Select the document(s) using one of the following options to delete links in it:
    • Load Active Document - Use this option to use the currently active document in Acrobat.
    • Select Document(s) - Use this option to load one or more files.
    • Select Folder(s) - Use this option to load all files in a folder. To add all files from sub-folders within the selected folder, select the Include Subfolder option in the Browse for Folder window. Use this option to add an entire library of PDF files.
  3. The selected documents or the path of the selected folder appears in the Source Document text box. Make changes as necessary using the available options.
  4. Click Delete.
    Note: Depending upon your version of Adobe Acrobat and the settings you establish within it, if a source document is open and you open a different document, a message displays indicating that the source document has changed. This message appears only to ensure you are aware that the tool is now referring to a source document that differs from the original. It does not signify that the source document has been modified.
