I have a pdf file that have many pages like this. I tried the short cut L and then ctrl-A and delete. But it can only delete the link on the current page. Is there a way to remove all the links in a pdf file. BTW, I tried "Document Processing->Remove All links ...", but it doesn't work for this kind of links.

George_Johnson May 10, 2011 8:41 AM (in response to asdfabcedasf)Actually, you should be able to select the text with the TouchUp Text tool whether the link annotation is there or not. Is that the tool you're using?
If you want to remove the links, you can use the "Discard invalid links" Preflight fixup. At least the link in the sample document is invalid since it has no action set for it. You can also use the "Remove all annotations" fixup to remove any links that are present, though you may want to edit it or create a new fixup to remove just link annotations.
