Reference symbols and Note symbols lose their links after export as PDF

Post by Icelander »

Is it just me, or do other users see this too? I notice that when a document is exported from Mellel as a PDF the link between the Reference symbol and the Note symbol gets lost. The expected behavior would be that if you click or double-click on a Reference symbol in the PDF you would be taken directly to the Note symbol, be it a footnote or endnote. But this does not happen in my 4.1.4 version of Mellel.

If the same document is exported as a PDF from Nisus then everything is OK.

Is this a (new?) bug?

It's how pdf export from Mellel has worked for many years.

Thank you DavidH. I was not aware of that.
