--- Comment #6 from Michael Stahl (allotropia) <[email protected]> ---

that's a feature - hyperlinks are converted into PDF Link annotations
(obviously), and footnotes as well (2 links, from the reference to the
footnote, and back).

the PDF Link annotation only describes a rectangular area of the page that can
be clicked (if the reader supports it), and it has this additional "Contents"
entry to specify an alternative text description.

the PDF/UA setting actually has very little effect, almost everything relevant
is already enabled by "Tagged PDF"; but the annotations aren't even governed by
that, they are always produced, and nobody ever saw a problem with that.

trying Okular, Evince, Chromium, Firefox, none of them display anything visible
for these annotations; perhaps it's an UI problem with PSPDFkit?
