Subject: Re: [docbook-apps] problem linking to other PDFs
I found web documentation that this is a known problem with the Acrobat Reader, but that it works if you run the Acrobat reader from within a browser such as Internet Explorer. See http://sources.redhat.com/ml/docbook-apps/2005-q2/msg00217.html I verified that PDF linking does work if you don't try to include the #id_in_doc part. I verified that PDF linking does work with #id_in_doc if you run Acrobat Reader (I tried version 8) within Internet Explorer. I would be happy to learn if there are other work-arounds to get it to work outside a browser. -Marshall Marshall Schor wrote: > Hi - I'm using docbook xml 4.4, xsl-1.70.0 with FOP 0.20.5. > > I'm using olinks, and have set up my master pdf olink db file to use > the baseuri elements (see file below). > > It works, almost.
