Re: [Evolution] Printing Mail to PDF
The Emails are in HTML - I can click on the links in Evolution and they work Ok. The same happens if I paste the email body into the Calendar , the links work Ok but fail when printed to PDF. I am using the version of Evolution in the Linux Mint Repository 3.28.5-0ubuntu0.18.04.2 I am using Linux Mint 19.3 MATE 64 bit . I'm not sure what version the Print to File as PDF is, I can't find where this is located in the system, it does not appear on the printer list Thanks John On Tue, 2020-11-17 at 09:57 +0100, Andre Klapper via evolution-list wrote: > Hi, > On Mon, 2020-11-16 at 11:24 +, John Murrell wrote: > When I print mail from Evolution as a PDF file any hyperlinks in > themail message are shown as text and can not be clicked on to > followthem. > A plain text email?

Hi, I'm afraid it's a problem of the WebKitGTK. Evolution just passes data to it and it does whatever it wants to with it. I doubt it can recognize real print to the PDF, it uses only styles. For example when I try to print Andre's mail, which is plain text, then the headers lost their mailto: "links" (more or less expected, Evolution can process some parts differently on print), but the text part has properly styled (blue & underlined here) the links in the Andre's signature and the links to the mailing list, they are only not clickable.

[Evolution] Printing Mail to PDF
When I print mail from Evolution as a PDF file any hyperlinks in the mail message are shown as text and can not be clicked on to follow them. Is this a problem in Evolution or in my (Linux Mint) PDF printer ? Being able to print to a PDF with active links would be a lot easier than copying and pasting the original message or appointment into a writer document so I can open it on another computer.
