I work on win98 se, msword97 or 2000
i am converting word files into pdf using primopdf.
i try to insert links into files in order to enable passing from one file to another.
after inserting the links in word and converting to pdf i test the files offline.
the link appears on the screen but the cursor doesn't change to a pointer and i cannot go over to the other file.
when converting the same files to html by word converter the links work fine.
how can i link pdf files? how to insert links into pdf?
please advise
thanks

This is something available in other PDF creation products from ActivePDF, but unfortunately not Primo. Primo simply converts a Postscript stream originally intended for the printer. Therefore there is no interpretation of the links other than the appearance. Hope that clears things up for you.
