Links in PDF don't work on iPhone, iPad
I have made a project to share informations using PDFs contained in my DropBox space, starting from a QGIS Cloud application.

After clicking on the PDF to open it from an email on the iPad or iPhone tap the export icon and open the PDF in iBooks. The links will then become active, at least they did for me and went to my Dropbox to open the proper files.

Hi friends, I've given up after a couple hours of trouble shooting, so here I am.
Uploading a pdf created from word doc to shared Dropbox folder; all links work in word doc & pdf while on PC.
Upload to drop box and links on one page go wonky. It became like chasing a mouse; first different web page links wouldn't work after sequential uploads (one that worked last upload now didnt work after fixing the original link issue); I fixed that by erasing formatting in word and resaving, etc. That caused then email links above the web links to stop working; they had been working in Dropbox before I fixed link in first sentence.
I tried erasing the formatting in word for email addy's; yup, you guessed it, email links worked first Dropbox upload, but then the original problem reappeared. So I fixed oringinal and stopped.
HELP!
