PDF output not including links

I've searched these forums and read posts that the problem with links not working in PDF output should have been fixed in version 6. I'm using RoboHelp HTML 8 (with all suggested patches), but when I create a PDF output it has no links in body text or in the Related Topics list at the end of each topic. I went into the PDF settings dialog box and checked for the PDF to include links, but it's not working.

I'm developing in Windows XP creating WebHelpPro.

What must I do to get links to work in a PDF (other than on the Bookmarks tab)?

Thank you.

Sylvia

Hi Sylvia

Out of curiosity, what do the links point to?

My thought is perhaps it is a type of link that isn't really capable of being transferred to PDF.

Cheers... Rick

Rick,

The links all point to other help topics; none point to external URLs or anything.

Does that answer your question?

Hi Rick,

The links all point to other help topics; none point to external URLs or anything. Are help topics "the type of link that isn't really capable of being transferred to PDF"?

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Have you tried to output to Word, and then print it to PDF?
