    I would like to BUMP this thread because I also need to know this.

    I am compiling a guide with PrimoPDF and the links aren't clickable that I made in Microsoft Word once compiled to a PDF.

    What can I do to make them clickable?

    Cheers,

    Pete

    I found a lot of the free PDF compilers like PrimoPDF only produce a clickable link if you have the actual link showing with http or www. For hidden links they don't work. I am using Acrobat 7.0 Elements and it works fine for hidden links. I think Open Office works fine too.

    If you have the new word 2007 you should be able to save the word doc straight to a pdf with the links, I havent really used the feature yet but Im willing to help out if you want
