Hi Christiaan,
when leaving the empty square bracktes out, it does not work either (at
least for me).
Why would you prefer relative paths above an absolute file link?
When the pdf created by latex is moved to another place, all links would be
broken.
(Sure, if the pdf shall be moved to another system, the relative paths have
their beauty, but IMHO it absolutely depends on the usage which alternative
makes more sense...)
BTW I also made a test with 2 links in a pdf:
that works, but it opens on page 1 and not on page 3
\href[page=3]{run://test.pdf}{relative path}
that does not work:
\href{/Volumes/Daten/test.pdf}{absolute path}
There seems to be a dependence on the pdf viewer:
Preview behaves like Skim (first one works, but only jumps to page 1, second
one does nothing).
In Acrobat Reader 7 (I only have the old one installed) it is the opposite:
the first one does not work, the second one works.
Kind regards
Martin
