Create jumps to hyperlink anchors

If you create a bookmark or hyperlink anchor in an InDesign document, you can cause a button to jump to that
anchor, even if it’s in another InDesign document. Use the Bookmarks panel and Hyperlinks panel to add anchors.

1

Create a button, and then double-click it using the Selection tool

to display the Button Options dialog box.

2

Click the Behaviors tab.

3

For Event, choose Mouse Up or another option that will trigger the jump.

4

For Behavior, choose Go To Anchor.

5

Select one of the open InDesign documents, or click Browse and select the file.

6

Specify an anchor that was created using the Bookmarks panel or Hyperlinks panel.

7

Select an option from the Zoom menu to determine how the page is displayed.

8

Click Add to add the behavior, and then click OK.

Note: If you specify an anchor in a different document, remember to export that target document to PDF, and use the
same filename as the InDesign document, replacing the INDD extension with PDF. Also, store the PDF documents in
the same folder to make sure that the links remain valid in Acrobat and Reader.

Set the button tab order

The tab order determines the next (or previous) field to receive focus when a user presses Tab (or Shift+Tab) in the
PDF document. The tab order includes buttons on hidden layers, but not buttons on master pages.

1

Go to the page containing the buttons.

2

Choose Object > Interactive > Set Tab Order.

3

Select each button you want to move and drag it to its new position, or click the Move Up and Move Down buttons.

When you’re done, click OK.

If you use Acrobat to add more form fields to the page, you may need to specify a new tab order in Acrobat.
