About action dictionaries

Action dictionaries are actions that are executed when you click a bookmark or a link, hover over an annotation, open a file ... There are several types of actions, e.g. a music track can be played, a specific page or website can opened ...

You may want to remove these actions, as they are not allowed in a PDF/X file. The Remove action dictionaries Action will remove the action only; the object (the bookmark, annotation) the actions are linked to will not be removed. For example, if you remove the action from a bookmark, the bookmark is still visible, but not clickable anymore.
