Good afternoon
I wrote a little book, which contains a number of hyperlinks.
Most point to some external sites, but a few point to other locations within 
the document.
After exporting the document as PDF the external links do work, but not the 
internal ones.

I have tried already everything found in the documentation, in online foren and 
what ChatGPT has to say (which is very little!).
So far nothing has worked.
Adjusting the file names/location for the internal links does not help.
Anyway, if I provide the said PDF file to other people, all those paths WILL be 
different in their respective computers.

Is there a trick to make internal links work in a PDF document?

Thank you
Thomas

When you wrote the book, did you define a bookmark as a target for each 
internal link?  I find that those internal links export to pdf just fine.

Also, I don't understand your comment:  "Anyway, if I provide the said PDF file to 
other people, all those paths WILL be different in their respective computers."

Internal links within a document will remain the same for anybody who received 
the pdf. As will external links to websites but NOT links to other files within 
your filing system as, for example, links to images which you might have in a 
different folder. Before exporting a document which contains links to images, 
you need to embed those images within the document.
