Hello
when I insert a hyperlink in a Finale sheet and save it as pdf, the hyperlink is lost.

It only works when I leave empty the field 'Display Text'.
Can someone help me?

There was discussion of this a few years back.

Thank you, Bill, so this seems to be a very old problem.

I vaguely remember some people suggesting a workaround -- maybe it was creating the link in the PDF rather than in Finale. But yes, the problem has persisted for quite some time.

Yes, I can create the links in Adobe Acrobat for example. But since I'm writing a large Finale file as a 'Work in Progress' with many links, I have to re-create the links every time I make a small change to the original.
