  • Auto hyperlink generation
    pdfMachine will automatically scan the text in a PDF creating hyperlinks when it finds particular words or phrases you have defined. This can be handy for common terms such as company names or products.

    e.g. You can setup pdfMachine so that whenever the word "pdfMachine" is encounted in a PDF, a hyperlink to www.pdfmachine.com is created.
