Link within PDF to networked Audio file - PDF Audio Player plays file

[martinv]

Folks,
I'm not new to PDF software or Foxit, but am fairly new to using more advanced features. This is also my first post on this forum.

I create Training courses for government folks. What I'd like to do is imbed a link to an external audio file (mp3) and have the users native PDF viewer audio player play the audio file. I know I can imbed audio files into the PDF but I want to avoid this (manual becomes large, no ability to edit or restrict audio following manual download...). I want to link to the audio file located on my server. When i try to do this, Foxit treats the file like a downloadable file and downloads the .mp3 file my computer. What I want however, is for the native viewers' Audio player to play the file.

Any assistance is appreciated,
V
