How to Convert to PDF with Hyperlinks
There are many free PDF converters out there which allow you to take a document from, for example, Microsoft Word, and convert it to a PDF format.
However, even though some of them claim to convert hyperlinks, many of them will only convert the links if the URL is spelled out. In other words, if you type http://www.domain.com , they will convert it. But, if you have a keyword that you have hyperlinked, they will not.
For an easy and FREE solution, use Open Office. If you go to http://www.openoffice.org, you can download Open Office for free. Think of it like a free version of Microsoft Office (that's really what it's designed to be). It is compatible with Microsoft documents, and can Export to PDF.
When Open Office exports to PDF, it does include all hyperlinks, even if it isn't in the URL format.
You can use Open Office to open existing documents from other products, like Microsoft Word. It also has the ability to do spreadsheets and presentations, so converting from Excel and PowerPoint is possible as well.
It is incredibly easy, it's free, and overall, Open Office is of surprisingly high quality in all of its tools.
