Description: I want to set some clickable cross references in the page headers of my document, so in everypage I have these links available to click. In the context of a Libreoffice document, this feature works without any problem. However, if I export the document to PDF, the links are lost (they are only clickable in the page where I defined them). I tried two approaches: using insert/set cross references and using bookmarks/internal links. None of this options work. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a document with multiple pages and set some references. 2. Go to the first page and edit the header: insert some cross references to the references set in step 1. The header should repeat in every page. 3. Export to PDF 4. Links to references are not clickable in all pages. Actual Results: The exported PDF does not keep the links to the references. Expected Results: The exported PDF should preserve the links to the references in all pages headers.

Thank you for reporting the bug. Please attach a sample document, as this makes it easier for us to verify the bug. (Please note that the attachment will be public, remove any sensitive information before attaching it. See https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/FAQ#How_can_I_eliminate_confidential_data_from_a_sample_document.3F for help on how to do so.) And could you please add a screenshot from your pdf export options? I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' once the requested document is provided.
Created attachment 150900 [details] ZIP with sample files
I'm attaching all the requested info. My purpose is to create an interactive PDF document with links placed along the right side of the page, as if they were placed in a tab bar.
confirming, the shape with the link is anchored to header. only the link on first page will work after pdf export. same if a frame is used instead of a shape.

Or may be it just set by default? Claudi, Oliver, what PDF viewer do you use?

Roman, the export parameters are in the ZIP attached to this issue. I've tried using Adobe Reader and Google Chrome embeded PDF viewer. BTW, I have noticed that it even doesn't work in LibreOffice Writer either. If I hover the link in the first page (while pressing the control key), a hand cursor appears as expected. But if I do the same in the other pages, the hand does not appear so it means that Writer is not replicating the links in other pages.

So possibly problem is in cross-reference inside shape in general Let me some time for experiments

Claudi, please write step-by-spep HOW you insert cross-reference into shape
In the attached document I used a bookmark and a local hyperlink to the bookmark, not a cross-reference. The steps are: 1) I insert the bookmark to a random page (in this case, the first one) 2) I open the page header and insert a Text box anchored to the header's paragraph. The reason I use a Text box is because I can rotate it to have a vertical text on the right side of the page, emulating a tab. 3) I click inside the Text box and then I go to the "Insert" menu -> Hyperlink 4) I choose the above mentioned bookmark and set a custom text (in my case "ClickMe"). If there's any other (working) way to emulate tabs, I'd appreciate some hints.
Ah, hyperlink. Claudi, cross-reference is Insert->Cross-referense (just FYI to future)
Created attachment 150903 [details] A new version of the document that shows that cross references don't work either
I have attached "sample2.zip" which shows that using frames with inner text rotated and using cross-references don't work either.
