            Bug ID: 105019
           Summary: Make it possible to create links in PDF
           Product: cairo
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: Other
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: pdf backend
          Assignee: ajohnson at redneon.com
          Reporter: federico at gnome.org
        QA Contact: cairo-bugs at cairographics.org

In librsvg, we have a request to make it possible for SVG's <a
xlink:href="some_url_here"> element to create the corresponding link in PDF
output.

I have no experience at all with the actual PDF format, but from what I could
understand in the spec, one creates links relative to a rectangular region, not
to arbitrary objects.  I don't know if this is correct.

Would it be possible to have some API that only goes to the PDF surface, so
that one could create links?

cairo_pdf_surface_create_link(surf, x, y, w, h, url) - something like that?
