Hello
Well I agree that relative paths are better and it's possible to write :
\href{run: Newton.pdf}{Newton.pdf relative path}
\href{run: Einstein.png}{Einstein.png relative path}
But with absolute path, Skim does not work and Preview shows only the pdf with the relative path
\documentclass{scrartcl}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\begin{document}
\href{file:///Users/ego/Desktop/Newton.pdf}{Newton.pdf absolute path} % problem
\href{file:///Users/ego/Desktop/Einstein.png}{Einstein.png absolute path} % fine
\end{document}
Adobe reader works well and the two links are fine, only the png works in Skim.
Christiaan Hofman (Skim's author) says it's a TeX problem, is it sure ?
First I would like to know if the problem is the same on Linux?
