            Bug ID: 131488
           Summary: export document containing ‘end notes’ into a PDF
                    document results in links not working
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Created attachment 158886
  --> https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=158886&action=edit
exported pdf document with endnotes; as I stated, links do not work in PDF

As it is 100% consistent with my experience, I cite the text of the weblink
(link here included below)

“Trying to export my end notes of an ODT document into a PDF document the links
between the anchor in the text and the end note (and wise versa) are lost.
Normal links and cross-references within the document are exported. I used the
command File > export as PDF”

To clarify:
When you insert an endnote (menu: insert-> endnote) in Writer, clicking on the
link in the text brings you to the respective endnote, and clicking on the
endnote link then takes you back to the place in the text you came from;
after exporting to a pdf file, none of these links are working;

As I submit this bug, the issue as described under the link on
ask.libreoffice.org is already 4 years old, and I wonder this issue it hasn’t
been submitted yet (or been solved).

As to the urgency of this issue:
As far as I am concerned, I actually need to export documents with endnotes
into a PDF document quite often. 

As a work around, I have used the procedure as given in the answer under the
above link. 


I am using the newest version
Version: 6.4.2.2 (x64)  Build ID: 4e471d8c02c9c90f512f7f9ead8875b57fcb1ec3

Also I tried several options (under: File → Export as → Export as PDF;  Tab
“Links” and there all option under “general”) to no avail
