Frame x-refs that wrap and work fine do not work in PDF

You refer below to "having multiple hypertext markers in the same paragraph."

This is not related to that. This happens even when the link is the only one in the graph. The issue happens when the link wraps to the second line.

With that information in mind, do you still think that this is tied to the TimeSavers setting of "Ignore duplicate 
>markers" (Links/General tab, under Advanced)?
