Hi Ananth,
I guess you're making the same (wrong) assumption as many others (me
included) made:
Seeing a working link in Acrobat Reader does NOT prove that link is an
active link in your PDF file, which can be converted with pdf2swf.
Obviously Acrobat Reader interprets URL-like text and offers it as a
link; although it is not an embedded link in the PDF file.
See a discussion in this forum:
http://www.megazine3.de/forum/index.php/topic,1416.msg5461.html#msg5461
I opened your file with Adobe Acrobat PRO and could verify that the URL
was not yet defined as external link.
I did so in using the feature of Acrobat PRO to automatically convert
URLs into links; and then also the converted SWF file supports the link.
Such support to convert URLs automatically are features available in
ACROBAT PRO, Nitro, Nuance's PDF Converter Professional and probably others.
I'm not aware if XPDF supports that...
Regards
Hans

Hi Balaji,
You can find the link in the bottom right of the page. The link is
enabled in the PDF. It is targetting
"http://pedagogie2.ac-reunion.fr/lettres/le_parfum/Entrer.htm"; this
location.

Hello Ananth,
Are you meaning that, without adding the link box for
the URL using the link tool (using Acrobat) the external links
should enabled in swf ? Because I have not find any of the links
in the sample pdf what you have provided.
Regards,
Balaji

Worth a try Anarth. If you have any luck let know!
Unfortunately, as far as I am aware, apart from a couple of
notable exceptions,
most of the Open Source PDF editing and manipulation programs
out there, seems
to rely heavily on the Xpdf library. If the the issue *is*
with Xpdf, which I
suspect it has to be, it will show itself with most other
programs you try.
I can't remember whether you are running Windows, or a Linux
based system,
or both. Anyway, here's the Wikipedia list of pdf software
just in case
you haven't checked it:

Good luck!
Chris.
