Title: Hyperlinks, Groups and PDF
Post by: zhuravsky on April 21, 2014, 06:15:42 AM
Hi, all,
I found a strange behavior of hyperlinks:
- I create Visio file with 2 pages and add one shape on each page
- Then I insert hyperlinks into each shape to be able to navigate between pages
- Then I publish this file in PDF format
All hyperlinks work normally in PDF

If instead of simple shape I use any groups then hyperlinks work normally in Visio but do not work in PDF.

Visio 2007.

how are you convert your vsd file to PDF ? and which version of visio are you use ?

in visio 2010 i try both methods: Creatу Adobe PDF and Create PDF/XPS Document. And there group shape hyperlink works correctly/

but when i print your document via virtual printer Adobe Professional, all hyperlinks lose...
