Thanks for the heads up.
For this project, I am joining datasheets for electrical items together into one document, that contains all the datasheet for each item in the job. I am not using hyperlinks, the colors are not critical, and it is very unlikely that the user will search the document. Seach worked however. Good to know the catches though, in case I try to use it again sometime.
