Hi,
When we create a hyperlink formula in an excel spreadsheet and convert it to PDF the hyperlink is no longer working.

However, if we create a hyperlink by right clicking a cell and inserting hyperlink then it works fine after conversion.
This is the code that we are using -
Aspose.Cells.PdfSaveOptions pdfOptions = new Aspose.Cells.PdfSaveOptions();
pdfOptions.CalculateFormula = true;
pdfOptions.OnePagePerSheet = sourceDoc.OnePagePerSheet;
pdfOptions.AllColumnsInOnePagePerSheet = sourceDoc.AllColumnsInOnePagePerSheet;
string filePath = “path.pdf”;
workbook.Settings.FormulaSettings.CalculationMode = CalcModeType.Automatic;
workbook.CalculateFormula();
workbook.Save(filePath, pdfOptions);
I am using the following library versions:
Aspose.PDF - 24.2.0
Aspose.Cells - 24.4.0
I have tried updating both to the most recent versions of both libraries but that didn’t work either.
Is there a bug in the library or am I missing something?
I can’t attach a sample xlsx file to this message but they are easy to create, see image above.
Kind regards,
Djs

The Hyperlink functions works with the following sample file:

Could you post your template file? We will check it soon.
Your file works for me as well, however, if you add a friendly name as well, as seen in the image below, then the link no longer works:
