Thanks Roland,

However, mailto: works without this problem if I use  lowagie iText to generate the pdf .

RE: email links in pdf





Tom,

mailto: links are an "unsupported" feature in Acrobat, this problem is not specific to FOP.

The only answer is not to use IE - Mozilla and Opera both work fine. Unfortunately if you open the document in the Reader it ignores default browser settings and opens IE anyway, you have to open it in the browser (need the plugin).

Regards,
Roland

Subject: email links in pdf



I'm putting an email link into my pdf using teh following fop syntax in my xsl...

E-mail: <fo:basic-link external-destination="mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]">[EMAIL PROTECTED]</fo:basic-link>

Clicking on the link in the created PDF brings up an email client ok but it also brings up a browser
which tries to access the url 'mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]'.

How do I stop it from doing the latter?

Thanks,
Tom
