Ladies and Gentlemen:

Got this one from a customer for whom I'm building a quoting system within our CRM product:

A web URL in the text of a document, even without the http:// prefix required for implicit links in most email readers, will be recognized as an implicit hyperlink to the web site in Acrobat, Adobe Reader, and some other programs that can display PDFs. But evidently not all of them, at least not on all platforms.

Is it possible, when generating a PDF via an OVRPRTF, using an externally described printer file, to create EXPLICIT hyperlinks?

(And yes, I know, I just ran the test myself: even an explicit hyperlink, created in Acrobat, is not recognized or processed by all applications that can display PDFs.)
