Bug ID: 161583
Summary: PDFs exported from Writer show a hyperlink’s text also
as it's tool tip.
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Printing and PDF export
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
That’s redundant and leaves readers of the PDF vulnerable to bad or malicious
links. Until a few years ago, the hyperlink was displayed as tool tip so the
reader of the PDF could check it.
For instance, a hyperlink “https://foobar.com” is not visible in the document
but the text “Foobar Company”, and “https://foobar.com” should be displayed as
tool tip instead (as has been before).
Steps to Reproduce:
1. In a Writer document, create a hyperlink to a remote web page.
2. Export the document to PDF.
3. Open the document in Reader and move the mouse pointer over the hyperlink.
Actual Results:
The text of the hyperlink is shown as tool tip, for instance "Foobar Company".
Expected Results:
The tool tip should show the actual hyperlink so I can check it before
clicking, for instance "https://foobar.com";.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
Hint I got from EarnestAl:
I suspect it was a result of tdf#140617 or linked bugs but it leaves readers of
the pdf vulnerable to bad or malicious links.
Links are confused with alternative text so there should be another method so
that both can be displayed.
