    From Manfred Stelzhammer@21:1/5 to All on Fri Feb 3 22:58:51 2023
    Hi

    Is it with tcl possible to create a pdf file with internal links?
    My workaround ist, I create a word document with cawt and save it as pdf.
    But this work's only on windows.

    regards

    pdf4tcl (https://pdf4tcl.sourceforge.net/) allows creating pdf book
    marks, which are "internal links" within the pages of the PDF. These
    are the "index pane" links.

    If you mean actual hyperlinked text in the doc that jumps elsewhere in
    the doc, I don't think pdf4tcl supports those.

    Thank you for the answer.

    I know bookmarks in pdf4tcl, but I mean hyperlined text that jumps
    elsewher in the document.

    regards

    https://wiki.tcl-lang.org/page/TCLFPDF

    https://github.com/lamuzzachiodi/tclfpdf

    from manual: AddLink

    Creates a new internal link and returns its identifier. An internal link is a clickable area
    which directs to another place within the document.
    The identifier can then be passed to Cell, Write, Image or Link. The destination is
    defined with SetLink.
