Hyperlinks to urls work but hyperlinks to page does not work. Why is this happening?

[chbrier]

I have a 445 page document. I put hyperlinks on only the 1st two pages so far.

-The first page has hyperlinks to urls only.

-The second page has hyperlinks to other pages in the document only.

-I can choose 'go to hyperlink target' on both pages and the links go where they need to go.

-I export only these first two pages (of the 445 page document) to test the links.

-I export as a PDF(digital high quality), under 'More' the hyperlinks option is checked.

-I check the PDF in both Mac Preview and Goodnotes.

-Only the url hyperlinks on page 1 work. I click and they go to the correct urls.

-The page hyperlinks on page 2 do not work. Nothing happens, I don't get any kind of hand or color change to show that there is a link. I click on it and nothing happens. 

 

Why are the url hyperlinks working but not the page hyperlinks? How can I fix this?

 

Thanks

I would expect the page hyperlinks to be exported only if the destinations are there in the export.
