chic Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Hi, just downloaded Affinity Publisher Beta , (been waiting a long time for this release) and there is not the ability to create Hyperlinked pdf's, not sure if this is because it is a Beta or not, but in my workflow I regularly publish Hyperlinked PDF's and this would be a fundamental feature for me and many others . At the moment I do this using Keynote and its a great little software, but as I have Designer and Photo and hopefully publisher soon I could contain my whole workflow in the Affinity platform, so please please please include the ability to publish Hyperlinked PDF"s Ally Landry, Chrispynutt, RenWaller and 4 others 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rip Rowan Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 I just downloaded Affinity Publisher specifically because I have an Affinity Designer document that requires hyperlinks. I was very disappointed to see this feature still is not present. Ally Landry and RenWaller 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martigny Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 Definitely need hyperlinks here please guys.

Staff TonyB Posted September 10, 2018 Staff Share Posted September 10, 2018 Support for hyperlinks will be added to Affinity but unfortunately we don't have a timescale yet. Celia at Grafted Works, ea0723, RenWaller and 4 others 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomasbricker Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Yeah. Just tried it myself. Guess it cant be done yet in Designer. But I was able to do an excellent job of it using PDF Editor 6 Pro. It is implemented beautifully within that app. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aloof Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 I second that this is a must-have for PDFs, starting from CVs to magazines, we need hyperlinks for our PDFs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinky Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Still no news on adding hyperlinks, I normally use InDesign to create interactive PDFs and that's an essential feature for me, been messing about on Designer, seems good enough so far but without hyperlinks that's a dealbreaker.

Staff TonyB Posted October 11, 2018 Staff Share Posted October 11, 2018 Hyperlinks are on our internal roadmap, unfortunately like most of the other great suggestions we just don't have a date for when it will be implemented. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fixx Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 I suppose release version (1.7) will be print oriented, and possibly the next version (1.8?) would have interactive/digital features added (epub, pdf)?

Rover Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 +1 for hyperlinks support! However, as a workaround PDF software can be used to add them in, as thomasbricker mentioned (I've done this successfully with Nuance Power PDF Advanced Pro 3).

zangad Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 This is also a very important feature for me. A must-have for modern documents. I was surprised to find this feature wasn't available, since the beta so far has been very full-featured. +1 for hyperlink support!

Peter Scott Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 I too need the ability to publish electronically using hyperlinks. Other than that I am so pleased Publisher has arrived. I have been using AF Photo and Designer and am so glad Adobe will be gone from my life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marinaa Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 I would also love to see this feature added! Vital when creating online documentation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrispynutt Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 I'd also like to second this request. I needed to open my PDF export in PagePlus X7 to add in the links. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithpattison Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 I agree that hyperlinks are a must. It would be nice if the link supported zoom to zoom in on large pages such as maps, posters etc.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Patrick Connor Posted January 22, 2019 Staff Share Posted January 22, 2019 @mich_, @zangad, @Peter Scott, @Marinaa Welcome to all of you to the Serif Affinity forums It says a lot about this feature request that so many potential customers want to create an account to add to this thread.

Morgoth Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 +1 on this and good to hear that it is in process. I just saw a video of a document created in Illustrator that uses hyperlinked tabs in the exported PDF. Unfortunately, this is in a private FB group.https://www.facebook.com/groups/492397951097039/permalink/800004677003030/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
