Hi,

I don't think the HTML to PDF does automatic email address hyperlinks at all. If you see a blue link, then the link must be already in your HTML. Otherwise PDF Viewer will automatically turn it as clickable, but it won't look any different than any regular text.

Thanks!

It is in the HTML... any format of xxx@zzz.com will be recognized as a hyperlink to email (eg Outlook) even if in a label or a disabled hyperlink? I do not want people to click on this address? Any ideas?

Hi,

You can not. Email address is always clickable. The only difference is whether they are blue or black (if you do not style them). If they are blue, then you can change your HTML to remove the HTML link so they turn black, but they will still be clickable in Adobe Reader (other reader may decide not to make them clickable). In any case, a black "link" is no different than any other regular text in a PDF file -- they are not link at all. It's just Adobe Reader decides that it looks like an email address thus make it clickable.

Thanks
