Bug#95086: pdftex bug in hyperlinks across page boundaries and footnotes



Package: tetex-bin
Version: 1.0.7+20001218-3

When processing a texinfo document with pdftex, I noticed an error in the
output.  There is a hyperlink (@pxref command in texinfo) that starts near
the end of a page.  The text is broken to two pages, and there is a
footnote on the first page.

The bugs are:

- also the footnote text is coloured with the hyperlink colour and seems
  to be part of the hyperlink
- the second part of the hyperlink text at the top of the following page
  is not coloured (but is still part of the hyperlink)

This seems to be a bug in pdftex, since also the following pdflatex input
causes buggy output:

\documentclass[a5paper]{article}
\usepackage[colorlinks]{hyperref}
\begin{document}
abc\footnote{def}\hyperlink{ghi}{jkl\newpage mno}
\vskip 30ex
\hypertarget{ghi}{pqrs}
\end{document}

In this output, "abc" is coloured although it shouldn't, "mno" is not
coloured, although it should be, and the footnote text "def" acts as a
hyperlink, although it shouldn't. 

With best regards,

	Marko Mäkelä
