[Okular-devel] getting the links in a pdf document

Hi,

I use an embedded okular part in my application, and I would like to get the 
list of links for each page and their coordinates (so that I for example could 
highlight a link, or have Okular scroll to the place a link is defined).

I am mainly concerned with source links (textedit://).

I know that it is possible using libpopplerqt4 to render pages and get the 
links. But it is somehow possible (via QMetaObject or anything) to get at the 
links in a document displayed by the okular part, to know where they are 
displayed, to scoll to a link or get a signal on hover/click etc.? Or are 
there plans in that direction?

Otherwise I might need to implement my own PDF rendering widget (based on 
libpopplerqt4).

with may regards,
Wilbert Berendsen
