This tutorial shows you how to define hyperlinks on your document with the API.
In case you want to send a document with one to many URLs to other websites it could be better for the recipient to just click on the links and another tab in the browser opens with the correct website instead of continuously copy paste the links to open them.
Please be aware that the hyperlink text will not appear on the PDF it will just link to the configured target link. Hence, if you want to display specific text or the Uri (target link) itself in the PDF, make sure to insert the text already before inserting the hyperlink. |
