Hyperlinks, Groups and PDF
« on: April 21, 2014, 01:15:42 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…

Probably, this is a bug of Visio 2007
