Bug ID: 146768 Summary: Hyperlinks (mailto / external URLs) fail in exported PDFs Product: LibreOffice Version: 7.2.5.2 release Hardware: All OS: macOS (All) Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: medium Component: Writer Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org Reporter: stevec...@gmail.com Created attachment 177552 --> https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=177552&action=edit Original odt Writer Document to test hyperlink fail I create a simple odt document in Writer (same problem also affects a 'docx' format file), and insert a hyperlink behind some text in that document (hyperlink can be a 'mailto' or it can be to an external website-page URL). The hyperlink appears good in the Writer document. In PrintPreview, the hyperlink looks good (shown in particular font colour/underlined), but cannot be clicked to open the hyperlink. The file is then exported to PDF. The PDF document shows the hyperlink (same particular colour/underlined), but no hyperlink is active. Hovering cursor over the hyperlinked text produces no 'hand' icon, and clicking on it does nothing. Export settings: General Tab: General section: no options ticked (although I have experimented with various ones, but problem remains); Structure section: no options ticked. Links Tab: General section: no options ticked; Cross document links section: default mode selected. Security tab: With password and without (although earlier, it *may* have been only password-protected exports had the problem) LibreOffice 7.2.5.2 (problem was occurring on at least two prior release versions) macOS Monterey 12.1 (problem was occurring on earlier MacOS versions) PDF viewer: Apple 'Preview' or Adobe Acrobat Reader (same problem on each) I opened a new LibreOffice document, and copied/pasted the odt document's contents, then saved as docx format, then exported to PDF. The hyperlinks *were not* active in that PDF document. I opened a new 'Pages' text document, and copied/pasted the odt document's contents into it, then exported that Pages file to PDF. The hyperlinks *were* active in that PDF document. Conclusion: problem is for LibreOffice text document file types only. I could attach only one file to this bug report, so I chose the odt file, rather than any of the other editable files, or their corresponding PDF exported pdf file. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
