Hi Jose,

thanks for answering.

We use laptops with touchscreens and Smartboard-TVs, all running on Windows.

Chrome or Edge dosesn´t make any difference.

Following your idea of downgrading:

I had to downgrade to version 3.84.31722.0. Then the hyperlinks worked by touch in preview and export.

Starting with 3.84.31840.0 only click works, touch does not. Not in preview and not in an export created with this version.

For me the hyperlinks in your test file do not work by touching.

Hi Ben!

Thanks for sharing the extra details!

Testing the link my teammate Joe provided, on my iOS device, I was unable to observe the same issue. Not to worry! I've opened a support case on your behalf so our support engineers can test the behavior across multiple devices. You're in excellent hands troubleshooting with them and they should be reaching out to you shortly!

We can continue the conversation through your case to keep all information in one spot.
