Activating links in PDFs

Hey, I'm converting some word documents to PDFs to send with a resume, and the hyperlinks aren't working. This is kind of vital just because they're online articles, so if there's any way to do that it'd be great.

Thanks!

    What are you using to convert them? A lot of PDF converters simply 'print' the file to a postscript interpreter which turns it in to a pdf, essentially just making a pdf just like if you'd scanned it into a PDF, just much cleaner. There are programs that can edit and manipulate PDFs, but few are free. If you have or know someone with Acrobat Standard, you can probably get it done, but I'm not familiar enough with it to tell you how right away.

    If you're using full Adobe, look in the Conversion Settings options for something called "Add links to PDF".
