A links is a specific type of annotation. There's an example that adds annotations to an image; that is: a single image. See for instance: http://examples.itextpdf.com/results/part2/chapter07/movie_posters_1.pdf Every movie poster has a link to IMDB. There's an example that adds different annotations at specific places (no images involved, but that doesn't matter): Annotations that provide more info: http://examples.itextpdf.com/results/part2/chapter07/timetable_help.pdf Links to IMDB: http://examples.itextpdf.com/results/part2/chapter07/timetable_links.pdf Stamp and line annotations: http://examples.itextpdf.com/results/part2/chapter07/timetable_tickets.pdf As far as I know, there is no specific example that creates links on different areas of images, because there is no need for such an example: the general principles are explained, everything you need to know to build a solution is laid out, but you'll still have to write some code yourself (and by reading the book, you'll have to learn how annotations work). If you have the coordinates of the clickable areas, it's just a matter of adding the annotation at those coordinates, but please take the time to learn before you start saying things like "it doesn't work!"
