Jumping to hyperlink anchors

[Karen Downs]

I posted the following in the InDesign Forum, but so far haven't received any suggestions. Perhaps someone here can help.

I am creating in InDesign and then exporting to PDF. I have created a button in the source document that jumps to an anchor in an external document (the source document has a small graphic that is the button; when it is clicked it should open the document with the anchor, which is a larger version of the small graphic in the source document).

The button works fine, and the larger graphic opens ... the only problem now is that the source document closes external document opens, and Acrobat gives me an error message that says "One of the actions closed the document. The actions following that action were not executed. To execute all actions, move the action that closes the document to the end."

But I only have one action, which is to jump to an anchor in a new document, nothing in the action says anything about closing the source document, and I can't find anything in the documention that tells me how to open the destination document in a new window without closing the source document.

Anyone have any ideas?

There is an option:

Acrobat=>Preferences...=>General=>Open cross-document links in same window

make sure it's off.
