Is Hyperlinking available in Pub. 2002 or 2003

[schulte]

In Publisher 2000 you need to be in web mode to make a hyperlink. I'm writing
a newsletter and want to stay in newsletter mode. Does version 2002 or 2003
address this problem, so I can make a hyperlink in regular Publisher
newsletter mode?

Thank you.

No - and if you think about it, it will make sense why not. (Kinda hard to
click on a link that's on a piece of paper.)

If you need links for an online version of the newsletter, you are probably
creating a .pdf version of the newsletter. If that's the case, get Acrobat
Standard. That's what I use for my online newsletter.

Thanks for replying.

Yes, this will be a PDF newsletter. So are you saying that everyplace I want
to have a hyperlink, it needs to be hand done in Adobe as I convert it into a
PDF?

I was hoping that it would work more like MS Word, select the text or image
and create a hyperlink.

That's what I'm saying. I know, not fun, but that's the way it is. It could
be worse tho - you could still be working with a pencil and eraser. ;-)

Yes, as of 2002 you can create a hyperlink in either publication, print or
web.

In addition to the other responses, live hyperlinks will not transfer to PDF
by default, unless you are using Publisher 2002 or 2003 and Adobe Acrobat 7
add-in.

Add it to the special list.

Of course
