Sometimes you'll find that hyperlinks just don't get carried from Microsoft Word to a PDF document. That can be difficult if you don't know how to fix that.

One of the easiest ways to fix that is in the video listed below.

But sometimes the real problem is just one check box that has not been checked in Acrobat.

Here's how to make sure your hyperlinks get transferred from Word to Acrobat.

In Word go to the top toolbar and click on Adobe PDF. You'll get the drop down window as shown below. Now click on "Change Conversion Settings..."

The next window that opens is the Acrobat PDF Maker. About half way down that window make sure the "Add links to Adobe PDF" is checked. That should make sure your hyperlinks are transferred directly from Microsoft Word to your PDF document.

If this doesn't fix your problem then follow our video on how to add hyperlinks to a Word document using Adobe Acrobat.
