<![CDATA[Embedded links in pdfs don't work when pdf is opened in Opera, but links work in other browsers.]]>I have pdfs, from documents written in Word, created from tool bard for Adobe within Word, and these pdfs have embedded links for easy navigation to other web-based documents. When I open the pdf in Opera, the links do not function. When I open the pdf in Edge or Firefox, or Adobe Acrobat 11, the links work just fine. Why doesn't Opera's utility for opening pdfs recognize the links and execute the paths within them?

Anyway, report it to Opera so they can take a look. You can mention this forum topic when describing the issue.

I really don't know what to make of it. But thanks for checking friends.

Works fine in Edge, Edge Dev, and Chrome Canary though.

Works on Chrome, but don't work on Vivaldi also.

I guess a fix is something I have to look forward to.
Thanks for the information!

However, they work fine in Opera Beta. So, when Opera hits v95, this should be fixed.

There are many links in this document, but page ii has a bunch of them.

Yes, ads and tracking blockers are both disabled.

If you could provide an example, maybe someone could test it.

By the way, did you try disabling ads and tracking blockers?
