Hi the list,
I would like to put a link in a .Rd file to a PDF document (not a vignette,
just a
regular PDF). I put my PDF in the folder inst/doc/toto.pdf. In the bible
"2.5
Cross-references", I read that \link can point to PDF file, but I did not
manage to do
it. How shall I do that ?
I think you misread the documentation. What it says is that links will
be produced in PDF documents (i.e. the PDF form of the man pages), but
those are internal links.
You can use the \url tag (or as of the upcoming 2.12.0 the \href tag) to
link to a PDF file. If your package is named "foo",
\url{/library/foo/doc/toto.pdf} should work. (The "/library/" part at
the start does not need to match your own library location; the help
server looks for that particular string.)
