Hyptertext Links Break in PDF

[Steve Johnson]

It doesn't seem like your setups are identical at all.

What does this mean:

"When I send her one of my Frame documents, in which all the
hyperlinks work correctly..."

Esp. in light of:

"When I generate a PDF using my copy of Distiller, the links are also broken"

You need to start with what works and go from there.

I've checked the setup of the generated files in the TOC. All have "create hyperlinks" selected in the Setup box.  (When I generate a PDF using my copy of Distiller, the links are also broken. So are the fonts, which is why I originally asked her to generate the PDF for me. . . )
