@Alexandre, I’ve downloaded and updated to version 9.4.0.129(x64 exe) and tried the same test file as before.

I’m pleased to report the first three hyperlinks now are imported correctly and work as expected even though it is still appending the prefix of “file:///”

However the last two for the doc and pdf are still incorrectly imported and don’t work. In these two cases, the previous “file://” prefix has disappeared.

Attached are screenshots that show the URL of each hyperlink translated by onlyoffice.

Hi @Alexandre , finally a welcome solution to this long standing issue. Thanks to the team for working on this in the background.

I have tested this new version v.10 with my original test Powerpoint file. I am pleased to report that all the hyperlinks work in slide show mode as expected except for the doc link.

When the doc link is clicked in slide show mode, the document did not open in a separate window as with the other links but actually opened as a tab in the OnlyOffice window which is hidden behind the slide show. I discovered this only after closing the slide show view.

I confirmed this by CTRL click on the doc link when the presentation is not in slide show mode. The document opened in a separate tab in the ONLYOFFICE window.

I then discovered there was a general setting to open the file in its own window instead of in its own tab (see attached screenshot). When this was applied, the file opened in a separate window when the doc hyperlink was clicked in slide show mode.

So it looks like the issue has been finally resolved!! Thanks again.
