Hyperlink to open a file in server doesn't work
Hi
Here's my problem.
I try to make a pdf with hyperlinks that lead to some files. (Jpg,doc,xlsx...)
Those files are on a server shared by all my colleagues.
But the link never work in the pdf.
Acrobat or other pdf reader try to connect to internet instead of opening the files. whatever the option i choose in the hyperlink pannel, i see that indesign add url=http before my link.
Anyone know how we could fix that bug ???

This is affecting us as well.
macOS mojave 10.14.2
InDesign 14.0
The issue can be corrected in Acrobat by editing the link/action. Remove the incorrect, "Open as web link" action and save a new action, "Open a file". Our documents often have over 100 of said links and this is a real time waster, especially when minor changes are required and the whole file needs to be re-done.
