That may be a bug but a viewer one. Acrobat will assume a link if the text
looks like a link. You can see that by omitting extlink.setAnchor(). There's an
option in Acrobat preferences to turn it off ("Automatically detect URLs from
text").

Subject: [iText-questions] Possible anchor bug
Please examine the following simplified code:
Paragraph tmppara = new Paragraph();
Chunk extlink = new Chunk("https://www.displayed.url";, basicfont);
extlink.setAnchor("https://www.actualurl.com?something=this";);
extlink.setUnderline(.1f, -1f);
tmppara.add(extlink);
...'tmppara' is added to a table cell, and the table is added to a Paragraph,
then that Paragraph is added to the Document.
When I view the main document (PDF) and place the cursor over the link produced
above, I get a hand cursor with 'w' in it, showing the correct anchor and if I
click the mouse it opens the browser and goes to the correct link.
But if I move the mouse pointer around carefully - usually just below the
anchor underline, a hand cursor appears without the 'w' displaying only the
text in the Chunk, as if this were a correct link, BUT IT IS NOT. And if I
click the mouse a browser will open, attempting to access this text in the
Chunk (www.displayed.url<file://www.displayed.url>).
How do I get it to stop doing this? Is this a bug?
This happens with both the Anchor object and the Chunk object
