Hyperlinks in word 2007

[Ila Nivas]

In a word 2007 document URI hyperlink is removed by using 'Remove hyperlink'
option; the hyperlink is removed from the word document but it appears in the
PDF document. The URI must appear as plain text in the PDF document.

I have turned off the "Internet and network path with hyperlinks" option
from 'AutoFormat' and 'AutoFormat As You Type' tabs before typing in Word.
The problem still persists.

How to avoid hyperlink in the PDF document published with Microsoft add-in
pdf utility?

Hi Ila

In a word 2007 document URI hyperlink is removed by using 'Remove hyperlink'
option; the hyperlink is removed from the word document but it appears in the
PDF document. The URI must appear as plain text in the PDF document.

is this happening with a hyperlink that is displayed as "http://....",
or as a clickable hyperlink (say, like on a web page, having a different
text)? The reason I'm asking this: there are some PDF readers who
convert the former to hyperlinks by themselves, without there actually
being a hyperlink present in the PDF file. If that's the case, you can
only turn off the feature in the reader software.
