I have an unusual request, and I hope there's a solution.

I have PDF catalogue pages that are on the Web. Of course there are hyperlinks, and if someone actually downloads the PDF, the linked pages open in their browser, as they should.

However, visitors are likely to see the PDF in their browser window. I would like the linked pages to open in new tabs or windows, not to replace the PDF itself, but I haven't found a way to do this.

Hi Gerard Rejskind,

Welcome to the forums :)

Unfortunately there's no option in-app to have hyperlinks be forcibly opened in a new tab currently, as the implementation of this is rather difficult due to the number of operating systems and browsers it would need to function in.

I've found the following thread regarding this on StackOverflow, if you have any experience in JavaScript you may be able to add these parameters manually, but your mileage may vary here.
