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

**PDF.js Express Version**  
8.1.1

**Detailed description of issue**  
When I click a hyperlink in the document which should take me to another page or position inside that document, as it does on Preview, the Google Chrome PDF viewer and when using the `react-pdf` library, nothing happens.

**Expected behaviour**  
Internal links take you to another page or position in the PDF document.

**Does your issue happen with every document, or just one?**  
Every document.

**Code snippet**  
Our setup uses the following code, but I’ve also tested this functionality using the [PDF viewer demo](https://pdfjs.express/demo/viewer) and internal links aren’t working on there either.

```javascript
        {
          path: '/pdfjsexpress',
          licenseKey: "LICENSE_KEY_GOES_HERE",
          initialDoc: pdfUrl,
          enableAnnotations: false,
          disabledElements,
          disableLogs: true,
          isReadOnly: true,
          css: '/pdfjsexpress/ui/dark-theme.css',
        }

```
