How PDF Links Work
A link in a PDF is an invisible clickable box on top of the page, with a web address behind it. The blue words underneath are just text. That is why you cannot see or change links in most PDF readers.
When you edit links in PDF pages here, every clickable box is outlined and labelled with its address. Click one to type a new address, or drag it to cover different words. Email links start with mailto: and work too.
To add a brand-new link, choose Link in the toolbar and drag over the words that should be clickable.
Change
Type a new address.
Move
Drag the clickable box.
Remove
Press the Delete key.
