URLS within pdf content

HELP!
When I create a PDF of my content it creates the PDF correctly (bar not putting the header image in which is detailed in another post) But my content contains links that when viewing on the website cross link to different articles on the website.

When I create a PDF these links are still 'active' but when I click on them they go nowhere. Looking into the PDF the link is still using the relative link from the website.

Is there anyway to add the website address to the beginning of this link? For instance:

Currently the PDF link is somthing like:

"/content/category/somearticle.html"

and I want it to be:

"www.mydomain.com/content/category/somearticle.html"

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Lee

Hi, are the links saved in the database with full path?

Jan,
Thanks for the reply, the URL's are stored within the content of the article in the database as such:

<a href="into-product-range/self-service-patient-check-in-using-touch-screen-kiosks.html" target="_self">

I have sh404 installed, is this causing an issue?

Thanks

Lee

Hi, then you maybe need to add the whole path into the article (e.g.in html edit)
