To translate the anchors from what MS Word thinks of an anchor to what a PDF thinks of an anchor requires a fairly intimate link between the two documents. When you're asking Word to "print" it is just rendering fonts and colors into a bitmap, which is why you get the non-responsive, but colored links. A relatively expensive solution might be to use something like Adobe Acrobat which has a Word add-on that makes the connection. The cheaper solution might be to use OpenOffice.org, which has an "Export to PDF" built into it. Other applications may have these features built in, but I know the recent OpenOffice.org has an options dialog in the "Export to PDF..." menu item to make links work as you would expect. -- Ted Roche Ted Roche & Associates, LLC http://www.tedroche.com _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
