Hyperlinks?

Post by Bob Velke »

I don't seem to be able to get hyperlinks to work. Others here have said that it works so I must be doing something wrong.

I'm using the latest version of PDF Converter (2.08c) and I'm passing hex 100000 (Dec 1048576) to FileNameOptionsEx.

Based on comments here, MultiLingualSupport and LinearizeforWeb are OFF.

The file is successfully created but URLs (http://.... and www....) do not appear as live links. They are just plain text.

Do I need to do something else? Do I need to mark the URL references in the text somehow or is the converter supposed to find them itself?

Thanks.

Hyperlinks?

Post by Bob Velke »

Update: Either I wasn't looking close enough or I did something which affected it - because now I am getting a different mouse cursor when I point to a hyperlink in the PDF document. But if the line of text is:

This is www.amyuni.com a test of the emergency broadcast system

Then the hyperlink tries to go to :

www.amyuni.com.atestoftheemergencybroadcastsystem

That is, the whole line is interpreted as the hyperlink. It doesn't stop at a space. The same is true if the URL is preceded by http://. The link does work if the URL is the only thing on the line.

What is happening?

Hello,

The hyperlink should stop at a space.

I tried to convert a hyperlink starting by www or http and followed by a normal statement to a pdf file using version 2.08c and the hyperlink was correctly converted and it opened the right page.

Please try again and if you are still facing problems please send an e-mail to support@amyuni.com and give them some details on how to reproduce this issue.

Thanks.
