[ale] Q: PDFing hyperlinks

[Grady Harris]

Have you tried extendedPDF? There's a link from the OpenOffice macros page:
http://www.ooomacros.org/user.php#102785
or you can go to:
http://www.jdisoftware.co.uk/pages/epdf-download.php

The installation instructions for the macro say it is for Unix, as well, but I'm
at work & can't easily test that. If it does work, let us know--I've been doing
this kind of thing by hand, which is making my boss restless.

ALErs -

I typically produce PDF documents by:
 1) Editing in a word-processor such as StarOffice-6.0 or in M$Win,
    M$Word.
 2) Printing to a PostScript file, and
 3) Running 'ps2pdf' on the PostScript file, or in M$Win, Adobe
    Distiller.

If I want to embed hyperlinks in the doc, I currently have to drop back to
M$Win and run Acrobat Exchanger on the PDF.

Any way to add 'live' hyperlinks to PDF files in Linux?

TIA.
