[Bug] Foxit generated Links dont work in other readers

[stolzi]

Hello,

if i generate links in Foxit they dont work in other Readers. Kpdf doesnt do anything when klicking on it and Acrobat Reader 8.2.1 goes to the link and zooms to 6400% view size.

A question in general: Do you test all new functions if they are standard compatible and work in other readers? If yes: how can such a Bugg exist in final? I am testing in the moment if i can use foxit and can suggest it to other people in our university. But if there are such Bugs i cant suggest Foxit at all, because people wont be very happy if they send a pdf which dont works for others.

Thanks
Stolzi

Hello stolzi,

Thanks for your report. We need your help provide us a file sample for investigation, and the step your created the links. Thanks a lot.

Ok, here it is. I think i used a wrong explanation... i talked about Bookmarks, not Links. If you klick on the bookmarks of attached file in kpdf it doesn't do anything, or crushes. If you klick in Acrobat Reader it zooms to 6400%.

Thanks for the file. This is a known and reported issue. I can't remember the reported mantis ID, hope this will be fixed in next version. Thanks.
