How are you generating your PDF? Are you printing to a PostScript file and then 
distilling as per Robert Lauriston's recommended workaround for your missing 
Adobe PDF printer issue?

If so, the key step he didn't mention is to make sure that the "Generate 
Acrobat Data" option in the Print Book dialog is selected. The "Acrobat data" 
this option is talking about includes bookmarks, hyperlinks for ToC entries and 
cross-references, and functioning hypertext commands like links to URLs. When 
you print to a physical printer, none of that data is included in the 
PostScript because it's meaningless to the output device. And if the data is 
not in the PostScript, there's no way for the associated links to work in the 
PDF. So when you're generating a PostScript file specifically to distill into 
PDF, you need to tell FrameMaker to include the link data.

Subject: FM 8:  Turn on hyperlinks in URLs
Date: Sun, 29 Sep 2013 16:16:59 -0700

Greetings everyone! I created a book containing a large number of hyperlinks, 
as text. (E.g., http://destination.com/). These are not coming through in PDF 
as active links. I do need them to look like normal URLs, and also be active 
links in PDF. Would someone be willing to tell me how to do set these links up 
to achieve this outcome? Using FM 8, Win 7 x64, Acrobat XI. Thanks very 
much!Elchanan
