      My hyperlinks still are not working in my exported .swf document.
      The hand appears, but when I click on the link, nothing happens. My links are suppose to go to
      other websites.

      One commentary says that the hyperlinks will work only if “Include Hyperlinks” is selected in the Export SWF dialog box.
      I do not even see the “Include Hyperlinks” in the Export SWF dialog box. Where is that located in that dialog box?
      I am using Indesign CC. BTW, my links work when I export as a PDF, but not a .swf file.
      Lastly, my .swf file has page curls. Not sure if that matters.
      Thank you for your help.

      Hard to know. Are you opening the HTML that points to the SWF? Or just the SWF itself? Maybe there is some other interactive object sitting on top of the hyperlink? Does it work if you export it as interactive pdf?

      I’m having this exact same problem, same software, same export settings. This happens when I open the SWF file, and when I drag and drop it into Chrome and IE. Likewise with the HTML file. All of the other buttons work, but not the hyperlinks. The hyperlinks do work as an interactive PDF. The hyperlinked buttons are converted text boxes.
      Thanks!
