Random links in pdf don't work, but only on RHEL 5

[Dov Isaacs]

It was extinct as of Acrobat 1.0! Just because some content in the PDF appears as clear, ASCII text, doesn't mean that the file in non-binary. Please trust me on this!!!

I've looked at PDFs in a text editor and seen readable code. Maybe the
