PDF Redirect


    The PDF Redirect action detects the Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) browser plug-in and sends the browser to a specified PDF file or Web page if the plug-in is installed. If the plug-in is not installed, the browser displays the page in which the PDF Redirect action resides.

    Create a page designed for browsers that don't have the PDF plug-in. For example, you can provide the PDF content in HTML format, or include a link to a Web page where viewers can download the plug-in.

    In the page you designed for browsers that don't have the plug-in, trigger the action with a browser-triggered event set to OnParse in the head section of the page. Choose Action > Link > PDF Redirect. For the PDF Page text box, reference the PDF file or page that viewers will see if their browser has the plug-in installed.
