Hello Detlef,
1. PDF to PDF links works properly only when PDF produced directly by
our PDF backend. I agree that it should be stated in our
documentation more clearly. We will consider your report as request
for enhancement.
2. PDF files produced by our PDF generator conform to PDF spec 1.3.
As far as I understand you can view those files in Acrobat without any
problems and print it, except for some printers. I believe this is
the problem of those printers or Acrobat/printer interaction rather
then of XEP itself. If you can provide us with detailed information
about what exactly in our PDF makes those printers choke we may
consider implement some kind of workaround for them if we find it
feasible.
Best regards,

OD> Hello,
OD> I have a problem with generated PDF files by RenderX. Some printers will not
OD> print these PDF files.
OD> I have figured out, that some GIF graphics makes problems. So I have changed
OD> the graphic format to PNG, but the problem still exists.
OD> Now I produce PS files and convert these files with Ghostview to PDF. But
OD> now I have problems with external links to other PDF files.
OD> Here is an example for a link in a PS file:
OD> [/Subtype /Link
OD> /Rect [155.905 669.879 200.925 679.129]
OD> /Border [0 0 0 [0]]
OD> /Action <</Subtype /URI /URI
OD> (file:P_1.pdf#ID1069252745)>>
OD> /ANN pdfmark
OD> But this link will not properly work. A click on this link opens the browser
OD> without open the file.
OD> So I changed the postcript to:
OD> [/Subtype /Link
OD> /Rect [155.905 651.879 218.715 661.129]
OD> /Border [0 0 0 [0]]
OD> /Dest /ID1069252745
OD> /File (P_1.pdf)
OD> /Action /GoToR
OD> /ANN pdfmark
OD> That works fine.
OD> Is there a easier way to get fine PDF files, which are printed well on all
OD> printers and have external links to other PDF files?
OD> Thanks,
