CorelDRAW presents a very useful and handy feature when you send files in PDF format and you want the addressed person to access a particular website.

1. Select the text or object of your file; or the whole file, and go to: 

 Window > Dockers > Internet

2. Under ‘Behaviour’ select ‘Link’.

3. Type the hyperlink in to the “URL” field. 

A grid with red hatching will be created over the text/object. (This will not appear in your final file). However, you can remove the red hatching in CorelDRAW by selecting “Cross-hatch” on the Internet docker and choosing No fill, by clicking on the ‘X’ (No color swatch).

4. To convert your file to PDF format, go to:
File > Publish to PDF  (Use the PDF settings required).

Testing the link:
Open the PDF file and test the link by hovering with the mouse over the area where you created the link.
Click on the link to be re-directed to the website.
