**Which product are you using?**  
PDF.js Express Viewer

**PDF.js Express Version**

**Detailed description of issue**  
When a pdf is viewed in the pdf.js express viewer, hyperlinks or embedded links in the pdf are not clickable. If the same file is opened in acrobat viewer or the browser, clicking on a hyperlink in the pdf opens the corresponding web page in a browser window.

**Expected behaviour**  
Clicking on a hyperlink in the pdf should open the URL in a browser window.

**Does your issue happen with every document, or just one?**  
All documents
