<div dir="ltr">Hi,<br><br>I'm having a problem when using hyperref and XeTeX version: 0.999.2 from the MikTeX 2.7 distro. I'm using the \href command to link to a executable program in the pdf. Ex:<br><br>\href{run:install.exe}{Install Program}<br>
<br>I have used this method before when using pdfLaTex and it worked just fine. When I take the exact same code and compile it with XeLaTeX however the link does not behave the same in the resultant pdf. Instead the pdf reads it as a file: link and attempts to open the source in a web browser. I have compaired the actual pdf code and it seems the run: dirrective is being interprited differently in the XeTeX case: Ex:<br>
<br>pdfLaTeX output:<br><br>68 0 obj <<<br>/Type /Annot<br>/Border[0 0 0]/H/I/C[0 .7 .7]<br>/Rect [239.419 671.714 540.996 686.459]<br>/Subtype/Link/A<</F(Install.msi)/S/Launch/NewWindow true>><br>>> endobj<br>
<br>XeLaTeX output:<br><br>13 0 obj<br><<<br>/Type/Annot<br>/Subtype/Link<br>/Border[0 0 0]<br>/C[0 1 1]<br>/A<<<br>/S/URI<br>/URI(file:Install.msi)<br>>><br>/Rect[240.408 542.633 540 562.818]<br>>><br>
endobj<br><br>In the pdfLaTeX case I have hyperref loaded with the "pdftex" option, and in the XeTeX case the "xetex" option.<br>Has anyone else encountered this issue or have any ideas?<br><br>Thanks,<br>
Ben Sanda<br><br>
