Ok! Looking at some other pdf-files it seems to be extracting the links. The 
one that did not work it looks like a clickable link in PDF-Xchange Viewer but 
it's probably the viewer itself that interprets the url from the free-text and 
makes that clickable. All is well, my mistake!

Thank you for your answer!

Subject: Re: Extract link annotations (hyperlinks) with tika app?

Hmmmm....we should be extracting links. Tilman's code on SO is slightly 
different from ours at this point, but ours should be working with the caveat 
that we aren't capturing the anchor text as Tilman's code does --- we're just 
repeating the link as the anchor text, and we're dumping the hrefs at the end 
of the page, we're not currently trying to integrate hrefs where they actually 
belong in the text.

We have one unit test for this:

    @Test
    public void testLinks() throws Exception {
        final XMLResult result = getXML("testPDFVarious.pdf");
        assertContains("<div class=\"annotation\"><a 
href=\"http://tika.apache.org/\<http://tika.apache.org/>">"+
                "http://tika.apache.org/</a></div>", result.xml);
    }

Is there any chance that you have extractAnnotationText set to false?  The 
default is true and is required to be true to extract hrefs.

This could be a bug, though...let us know...

Using the tika app (tika-app-1.20.jar), is it possible to extract link

output. I failed finding any documentation regarding this.

I found out that pdfbox can extract link annotations:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/38587567/how-to-extract-hyperlink-information-pdfbox
But I'm not sure how to use this with the tika app.

I think the tika app is using pdfbox for pdf content extraction, but I might be 
wrong😊

Any help greatly appreciated!
