pdf: link export description to `nil` #58

Closed firmart closed 3 years ago

firmart commented 3 years ago

It happens that all my pdf: links are exported to a nil link, i.e. the description is replaced by nil. This can be checked for instance with org-latex-export-as-latex: description are exported as nil in LaTeX. But this issue is present for other export type. It occurs even for pdf: link without description.

I checked the code source, and the function org-pdftools-export looks standard. I put a (message "%s" desc) inside that function, and it always outputs nil. Very weird issue. It's not an Org mode bug, because all other link export description correctly.

emacs version: emacs 28.0.50 org version: 9.4 package version: 20200422.1350

Do you have link desc in your link? As in desc in [[link][desc]]

Somehow the bug is not present anymore (package version: 20210110.2052) , and I can't say why. The link I was talking about is of the form [[pdf:/path/to/file.pdf::35][desc]]. I think that you can close this issue.
