Converting ppt with hyperlinks to PDF

[Hermes Endarkis]

Hello All,

I wonder if anyone can shed some light on the following dilemma:

I have created a report in Powerpoint which contains a number of hyperlinks
that navigate the user through the document. All of these hyperlinks work
when viewed in PowerPoint but when I convert this file to PDF, the hyperlinks
take me to the incorrect pages (i.e pages other than the ones specified in
the original powerpoint document). So although there are hyperlinks in the
pdf version, they are not accurate and consistent with those in the source
document. Any help you may have on this would be greatly appreciated. FYI,
I am currently using Powerpoint 2003 and Adobe Professional version 7 with
the latest upgrades.

Many thanks

This probably will explain it, and if so, give you a couple ways of fixing the
problem:
