Hyperlinks positioning in OO when exported to PDF (as tagged)
Last modified: 2017-05-20 10:04:01 UTC
Hyperlinks positioning in OO when exported to PDF (as tagged) When I click on the hyperlink in the PDF it brings the left side of the screen in line with the bookmark's left position. What could be another feature would be, for it to go to an arbitrary position on the line of the bookmark, not necessarily the bookmark itself. For example I might want it to go 1cm to the left of wherever the bookmark is (so that the dots of the left side for example tables have a bit of space and can be seen better, in acrobat pdf reader). Or I might want it to always go 1cm to the left of the left page text border (ie 1cm into the margin but not at the left of the page itself yet), so that there's a bit of space in the pdf viewer between where the text starts so that the dots don't get missed due to being on the border of the screen in the pdf reader. Try the hyperlinks and you'll see what I mean, when exported to PDF. I can get around this though - by using 'decrease indent' and placing a bookmark inside the page margin in OO (then copying this to a hyperlink inside the document), this will result in the desired PDF position for the bookmark, when exported to pdf. Just that it feels a bit funny having to place a bookmark in the margin of the document in order to force the pdf reader to leave a bit of space at the left of the screen when going to the bookmark position. I was thinking there could be an option in regard to this, (like we have options for page margins when printing to a printer), which would allow hyperlinks inside the pdf document to have some kind of override when it comes to where it places the position your in in the pdf document when clicked on it. Eg always position cursor 1cm to the left of where the bookmark is when clicked on the bookmark hyperlink. Or always position cursor 1cm to the left of the left text margin (on the line of the bookmark) when clicked on the bookmark.
