  • 1.  Making hyperlinks of page numbers in PDF index

    Posted 08-13-2007 20:37
    Hi,

    I'm using:
    * Saxon 6.5.5
    * Xerces 2.8.0
    * Apache FOP 0.20.5

    When I add an index to a book, the page numbers in the PDF version of
    the index aren't hyperlinks. It would be nice if they were; has anyone
    tried to make that happen?

    Thanks!

    It doesn't look too good for the 0.20.5 version of FOP. Perhaps the
    0.93version is better? I've switched from FOP to XEP and XEP
    definitely supports
    this.

    Thanks a bunch! I was having a hard time searching the archives because
    the word "index" kept giving me all sorts of extraneous junk. And thanks
    for the info about XEP's support!

    Cheri,

    0.93 does generate hyperlinks in your pdf index.

    Incidentally, I've found 0.93 to be very useful. It won't
    do everything the XEP or Antenna House can do, but I did
    find that it's a lot better than 0.20.5 and is definitely
    worth a look if you can't use a commercial processor.
