"multiple hyperlink fields" in a single piece of mtext not working correctly
Having problems with "multiple" hyperlink fields in a single piece of mtext all pointing to the same location after printing to PDF.
I have piece of MTEXT with typical notes...ie
1. SEE SHEET C-1 FOR THIS.
2. SEE SHEET C-2 FOR THAT.
3. SEE SHEET C-3 FOR THE OTHER THING.
The sheet numbers are fields with "associated hyperlinks" check ON that point to a sheet in my sheet set. Within AutoCAD and mtext all the field expressions seem to be correct and pointed to the correct sheet and location. Problem is after printing the PDF (DWG to PDF.pc3) all the hyperlink fields point to the first sheet only. If I make a separate mtext object for each note with a single field it works as expected but who wants to manage that many separate notes to and bullet/number! Anyone have any insight as to what maybe be happening here? Is this not possible? We should be able to have a singe piece of mtext have multiple fields link where they should in multiple locations.
I've tried both 2019 and 2020 AutoCAD versions. I've also tested linking in two different PDF viewers with same result.

Hi @ctysliker,
Thank you for posting your question. I have seen this before as well, and as far as I understand, only one hyperlink can be retained the the PDF file format for a given text object.

Thank you for your reply. This is not really a solution as there is no point in hyperlinking my PDF with sheet set fields if I can only have one field hyperlink per text object. This seems like a fatal flaw to me as we need to ability to have multiple fields linked to multiple sheets in one text object.
Autodesk please look into this and adding this functionality would be useful.

Hi @ctysliker,
I agree this would be a valuable improvement and encourage you to use the Product Feedback link or the link in AutoCAD under the drop down in the upper right corner of the window, to submit the idea for future consideration.
