Hi Bevi,

I tried both the test pdf files with JAWS 12 and NVDA 2011.1 with
Adobe Reader 9 on a Windows 7 32 bit computer & below are the results:

Test PDF 1:
Both JAWS & NVDA failed to identify any of the links. Instead read out
the links as plain text. However these links were clickable with a
mouse.

Test 2 PDF:
Both JAWS & NVDA identified two web page links and 1 email link
correctly. Also the links could be clicked with a mouse as well as a
keyboard.

Hope this helps...

Thanks & Regards,
