Is there an automated method for converting all hyperlinks in a W.

[Andrew Steinmann]

I have a long (book-length) document with many hyperlinks (page references).
Before submitting the file to my publisher, I need to convert all hyperlinks
in the final draft to text. Is there a quick way to do this?

A hyperlink is one type of Word field. Other types of fields that are
often found in book-length documents include cross-references, figure
and table numbers, and table of contents. If you press Ctrl+A to select
all of the text and press Ctrl+Shift+F9, all fields in the selection
area will be converted to regular text. You might want to make a copy
of the document and do this to the copy, in case the result is not
satisfactory.

Alternatively, if you just want to remove the Hyperlink Reference style, use
Find and Replace to search for that style and replace with Default Paragraph
Font.
