Just download it!

Just download it with the link you already should have received. It's the same link for a whole subscription period.

Bad link fastclock shopping list

Page not found from RE portrait PDF

MRH: Try it now -- it's fixed. We forgot to enter a link in our issue links list: we only have about 500 of these links to put in and test every issue ...

More bad links on the "Bash" a fast clock article

On pages 13, 14, 17 and 22 of the "Bash" a fast clock article, the "View Reader Comments" balloon links to a 'page not found' on the MRH site. I only confirmed this in the landscape version of RE that was downloaded on 12/9 Monday morning.

MRH: That's been corrected. You may need to refresh your browser cache.

Page Not Found not yet fixed

The problem reported by Yaron is not fixed yet. I have downloaded a fresh copy of the December MRH and the December copy of MRH RE and the results of the comments link are the same. Yes, I refreshed the cache.

This is a particularly nefarious and pesky Adobe InDesign bug. It allows you to paste in a link that has a carriage return (ASCII Char 13) at the end of the URL. That shows up in the URL at the end as the characters %0D, which is a hexadecimal 13.

The short term fix you can do is go up to the address bar in your browser and delete the %0D at the end of the URL!

What's annoying is bringing up the link in the dialog box in InDesign does not show this character -- it's "invisible". If Adobe's programmers had any sense, they would filter out any invisible "control" characters" in a URL since those are clearly invalid. And since you can't see them, you don't know they're there either, and you can't select them to get rid of them!

Very much a @#$%! darn Adobe!> sigh<

We will have to go in and carefully replace these URLs and keep our fingers crossed no end of line control characters sneek in this time ... grrrr.

Joe, have you reported the bug to Adobe?  I believe this is the place to do it:  https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601180-adobe-indesign-bugs
