Embedded links open on Mac BUT not a PC-any fix?

[Gail_Hoge@adobeforums.com]

I have converted a book (using MSWord 2004) to pdf (Acrobat Professional 7.0) and each chapter has embedded links to web sites. The links work when viewing on a Mac but NONE of them will open on a PC. Any fix to this problem? I have read all of the posts written about embedded links that I can find and see nothing just like this problem posed and answered. BTW: I wrote to a thread on this topic that I have found that to view embedded links on a Mac each URL MUST have the <http://www>. in front (have one in all of these documents that doesn't have this front stuff and it will not open-I'm not inclined to correct on 20 chapters as these are in the footer which has two different versions). Thanks for any help. Gail
