hyperlink redirects to mail.google.com/mail/u/0/[insertURLhere]

Attempting to put in a regular URL as a hyperlink in a PDF using Acrobat Pro DC.

I've highlighted the text for my link, selected "open a web page", input my desired URL, and then when saving and sending out, the hyperlink is sending them to a mail.google.com/mail/u/0/[theURLprovided].

Can anyone help?

Cheers!

I suspect you haven't put a complete URL, and have left off the http:// part. And that you're looking at the PDF from gmail. If so, this is correct behaviour which you can fix using a complete URL.

You fixed it!

Thank you!

Can you share the document via Dropbox? Have you tested the link in a browser window to ensure that it opens correctly?
