Links in resulting PDF

[Gleb Peregud]

Hello,

Thanks a lot for this great piece of software!

I would like to use MediaWiki + Collection + mwlib + mwlib.rl to
create documentation for a software product. I was able to configure
mwlib, mwlib.rl and Collection for my local MediaWiki installation.
I've created PDF file containing few articles, but there were no
internal links inside thid PDF. Does mwlib / mwlib.rl supports
internal links in resulting PDF? Maybe other writers support it? If no
are there plans to support this feature?

Best regards,

Currently they don't. I've created a ticket:

Because of lack of features in the core code of mwlib regarding this,
it can't yet be fully implemented (the writers that do write links,
will possibly write wrong links).

Yes.

Thanks a lot for information. As I've found out docbook writer
supports internal links (at least docbook source files looks like it
do), i think it will be enough for my purposes, but i'll look forward
for this feature in pdf writer.

Hi Gleb,
I know it has taken forever, but finally internal links in a PDF are
rendered.
Sorry that it took so long...

Volker
