Graphics Question

Folks, I have a word doc, and at the bottom I put 5 links. I made all 5 by r clicking the text > Link, pasting the true url in there, and then I printed the doc to pdf using MS Print to pdf.
My issue is none of those links are clickable in the pdf? I just get the hand icon when I try. I don't remember this happening before.

I don't see any Settings to change, maybe there's a better program to use for this?

OK, I asked on the MS support forum-
The PDF functionality in Windows is very basic, it cannot create interactive PDF files, so the links will not work in the PDF version, to create an interactive PDF, you would need to use a 3rd party virtual PDF printer, some of the free versions can create an interactive PDF file.
so can anyone recommend a free program for this?

This might be a good reason to get familiar with your Ipad.

I sent that ipad back and got a good laptop!
after trying out 10+ pdf readers, npne of which created pdf with clickable links, I found out I can Save from a word doc, as a pdf,
with clickable inks!
