P. Story +Dated: 2018/08/18 + +The aeb_mlink package defines new link commands to create multi-line links. +The new commands are \mlhypertext, \mlhyperlink, \mlhyperref, \mlnameref, +\mlNameref, \mlhref, and \mlurl. + +PDF Creators: Adobe Distiller or ps2pdf + +What's New (2018/08/18): Created \turnSyllbCntOn (\turnSyllbCntOff) to turn +on (resp., off) the viewing of syllable numbers. Reorganize core program to +accommodate the use of \mlhypertext command within the program code of +annot_pro. (This is to implement text markup annotations in that package.) + +What's New (2018/04/26): Included a 'dummy' package named aeb-mlink. The +aeb_mlink package is listed on CTAN as aeb-mlink, though there is no such +package by that name. Well, now there is. + +What's New (2018/04/20): Previously, the links created by aeb_mlink consisted +of a series of rectangles around each of the syllables of the hypertext or +url; the little rectangles responded in unison when any one of them were +clicked. In this version, Postscript procedures are used to combine the +little rectangles into one rectangle per line of hypertext. Also the Rect +entry has been changed to be the smallest rectange that encloses the +hypertext (or url). The Postscript tries to detect problems with the links, +and reports to the log (distiller or ps2pdf log). The PDF Specification does +not support cross-page links, to resolve this issued, a method of 'cracking' +a link apart, breaking it into two links. The second link is free to move to +the next page. + +This package requires the latest version of AeB, in particular, the eforms +package required is dated 2018/03/22 or later. See ctan.org/pkg/acrotex. + +In addition to the demo files distributed with the package, there are two new +demo files available from the AcroTeX Blog webiste: + + aeb_mlink: Fixing multi-line link boxes + (http://www.acrotex.net/blog/?p=1377) + + aeb_mlink: Crossing page boundaries with multi-line links + (http://www.acrotex.net/blog/?p=1383) + +Let me know if there are problems or suggested features. e-mail +me at dpstory@uakron.edu or dpstory@acrotex.net + +My other web site is http://blog.acrotex.net/ has the latest on my +ruminations on LaTeX and PDF. + +Now, I simply must get back to my retirement. + +D.
