Description MB2613 2014-03-12 23:10:52 UTC
There are no textual clues (e.g., blue color) to identify links in PDF files generated with "Download as PDF." Therefore, when reading such a file on a computer, I don't know what words are linked unless I happen to move the cursor over them and see the cursor change.

Could you change the text formatting of these files to provide such a textual clue?

If you feel that some people would prefer to print the files on paper and not have those textual clues, perhaps you could provide the option and ask the user if textual clues for links are desired.

Thank you.
