Some users have photocopies of relevent procedures at their workstations, a few have access to the full printed copy we send, and a significant number use the PDF. If we include an href link, users can click a link to navigate in the PDF. The Word bookmark that is created by an xref to a page number typically doesn't provide a cue that it's a link in a PDF, but we'll probably format it to be blue and underlined. Hi Tom,sure thing.

I assume that users will print my Word targets, so having an href link in the document isn't that useful. Can you share more of your reasoning about why you want to put href links in a PDF?
