But from my first test it appears as if there is a bug in Reader 11.0.7. mailtolink.me will help generate email links. I've tried making a new user profile on WIndows, and installing Chrome and doing the same thing; mailto links in Chrome still do not work. All other mailto links work (on other browsers, other programs, etc); it's just Chrome. This works fine with IE8 windows 7. I also opened your file Pat and the email did NOT launch (just to ensure consistent behavior). As you can see, setting up a mailto is one of the easiest things in HTML. The issue here is that we (my company) generate these PDF's for clients who then send them to their customers. When updating a field, it turns the email address in a clickable âmailtoâ link and when Iâm not careful when clicking, it opens up a new email in Outlook. Locate, and then select the registry subkey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes\htmlfile\shell\open\command. If you go to Edit>Preferences>Email accounts, does it list any accounts? Windows XP, Reader 11.0.7, Outlook 2007: opens email message normally. Use a
