pdf with clickable hyperlinks

pdf with clickable hyperlinks

[Moritz Lennert]

Hello,

I imagine I'm not the first to ask, but I haven't found the answer on the
web, nor in the mailing list archives:

How do I create a pdf with clickable hyperlinks from a xml file ? I
normally use docbook2pdf to transform my files to pdf, but the http://
addresses are not clickable in the resulting file.

Could someone tell me what to do, or point me to a source of info ?

Thanks,

Moritz

AFAIK that method always worked for my. What version of the software do
you use?

As a follow-up maybe I'm using the wrong markups ?

I use

<ulink url="&webhome;gdp/html_grass5/html/g.region.html">g.region</ulink>

which in the PDF version gives me:

g.region (http://grass.itc.it/gdp/html_grass5/html/g.region.html) with the
url not being clickable.

Am I using the correct commands ?
