1. I have the following <p> tag with a linked PDF: <p> Please open the following document: <xref href="https://fileserver.com/documents/BXMLGuide.pdf">The Beginner's Guide to All Things XML</xref>. </p> (The URI for this is different in the actual document). I can use this very same URI and open this document. This link works in other documents. But when I transform this DITA content using the Legacy PDF transform, the link, while underlined in blue and apparently "clickable," does not actually open the document. 2. I have the following tag for an entry later in the document: See <xref href="C_setup_my_account.dita#setupmyaccount">Set Up Your Account</xref> for more information I can open this link within Oxygen - it opens the 'peer' file just fine. It's part of the same DITAMAP and when I transform to PDF, this topic is part of the PDF. But the link, while Blue Italic, is not clickable. 3. I remember (I think) that when I transformed to PDF using the Legacy OT transform that it also put the page number as part of the link for a link within the same document. Is this still possible?
Oh for goodness sake 1. the link now works. I don't know what I did, but I simply re-transformed the DITA -> PDF and it worked. 2. I mispelled the target (#setupmyaccount) on the link. I _thought_ I copied it, but either my eyesight isn't good or my comprehension fails. the link was "#settingupmyaccount". DUH 3. I still don't know how the page numbers got there in my early drafts. I'd like them back, but I don't know what I did to get them. On Thu, Sep 9, 2010 at 2:57 PM, Stephen Matlock <stephenmatlock@gmail.com>wrote:
