Hi,

I have created a document with multiple hyperlinks referencing existing .pdf files on my system. However when I export this document to .pdf these 'file' links are changed in to web links so that when trying to access them through adobe reader I get an annoying pop-up security alert and the link takes an age to appear. I have tried all the options on the export to .pdf tabs but nothing seems to stop them from being changed in to web links.

Regards
William

Please don't double post (and certainly don't do it in the wrong forum).

The problem occurs in both writer and calc, and why is this the wrong forum?

Both posts are identical. How are the users here going to see the difference? You should at least have mentioned in what module (Calc, Writer) it happens - people double post a lot, and people answering in one of them may be wasting their time if a solution has already been offered in the other.

Confirmed, anyway. Same happens with LibreOffice. Adobe Acrobat Reader refers to file to my default browser, which happes to be Firefox. And because in my case Firefox defaults to save downloaded files, even if they're downloaded from my own hard disk ... you guess what happens.
