Hi,

In Acrobat open the "Edit PDF" tool.
Click on the Link icon and select "Add/Edit Web or Document Link".
This will highlight all links (e.g. cross-references).
When you right-click on a link and select properties,
you can check in the Action tab the destination.

Best regards

Winfried

IIRC there's a way to expose the information in links within a PDF. Perhaps the 
"missing link" to the failure can be found there. Unfortunately, I've forgotten 
how to do that magic.
