You’ve now created One button on one page, that when clicked, will take the user to the First Page of the document. From the Menu items list select View > Got To > First Page.Under “Add an Action” set: Select Trigger: Mouse Up and Select Action: Execute menu item.This is the text the viewer of the PDF will see displayed on the button, e.g. under Icons and Label enter the Label Text.This means you’re creating a simple button, using the basic button appearance as set in the previous set, with some text on it indicating the purpose of the button to the viewer of the document. Basically these few settings give you control over the button design.

Click the Appearance Tab, and select the Fill Colour of your Button, as well as the prefered Font and Font Size.Set the Form Field to “Visible but doesn’t print”.Enter the Field Name: “bBackTo” (replace this with your preferred text).Click “Show All Properties”, in the General tab,.On of the document, click in the location you want to have the button appear (or click and drag to set your own button size).From the “Add New Field” drop-down menu select “Button”.When only adding a single button and not working in Forms, click “No” when asked to auto detect fields.Alternatively – as per Leonard’s comment below – Select the Button (tool) from the Tools > Advanced Editing menu and continue with step 4. In addition it will ask you if you want Acrobat to automatically detect fields for you. A message might appear warning you that there are no form fields in this PDF currently. Click the Forms button in the toolbar and select “Add or Edit Fields”.Due to time constraints no screenshots this time, but instead a step-by-step list of instructions that will provide the answer to this question. Q: I received an email last week, that in a nutshell phrased the following question: How do I create a button on all the pages of a PDF document that, when clicked, links back to the first page of my PDF?Ī good enough incentive to finally write up another digitip.
