hyperlink opens with Foxit Reader but not with Adobe Reader

Post by JordanO-P »

Hi all,

I recently found how to hyperlink to a folder using Lyx. Everything was working great until I got to work where the default PDF reader is Adobe Reader.

It looks like all hyperlinks with extensions (i.e. .pdf, .xls, etc.) work but none of the folder hyperlinks do (with Foxit Reader, clicking on those hyperlinks open Windows explorer at the proper location).

What is the problem?

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p
