Thanks Milan,

Looks like I will have to continue with my work around of copying the email or appointment into a Libre Office document.

Is this a problem in Evolution or in my (Linux Mint) PDF printer ?

Hard to say. Which exact Evolution version?

	Hi,

I'm afraid it's a problem of the WebKitGTK. Evolution just passes data

to it and it does whatever it wants to with it. I doubt it can

recognize real print to the PDF, it uses only styles. For example when

I try to print Andre's mail, which is plain text, then the headers lost

their mailto: "links" (more or less expected, Evolution can process

some parts differently on print), but the text part has properly styled

(blue & underlined here) the links in the Andre's signature and the

links to the mailing list, they are only not clickable.

I do not know whether this could be done at all, though. It's a

question on the WebKitGTK developers. When I print a web page from the

Epiphany (which is WebKitGTK application), then it doesn't make the

links clickable too.

	Bye,

	Milan
