I am trying to discover the locations of existing external (only) links
in a PDF document.
I have looked into this some within the context of iText and other tools
and one of Bruno's responses mentioned that there were many ways to
specify a link in a PDF.
I am aware of two so far:
1) The author could create an "annotation" which would be discoverable
by iText via looking through PDF dictionary information
2) The author could simply embed "http://whatever.com/whatever" into
their text and this would automatically be seen as a link by Adobe Reader.
How many other ways are there for a PDF author to specify that a
particular piece of text is a link to an external resource?
Thanks,
Wes
