Cross-references to Figure/Table captions work in FM, but not in PDF

[Pat Christenson]

Hi John -

I have no explanation but I do have a possible solution. When crerating  
the PDF, turn on Create Named Destinations. You shouldn't have to do  
this for internal xrefs but it solved the problem for a client of mine.
