> Currently the XHTML doesn't contain links, although PDFBox parses them. I'm new to Tika and haven't done java for 6 years, but someone more experienced could probably do this in a few hours. 
> The PDF2XHTML method loops through the annotations. 
> See: 
> {code:java}
> 136: for(Object o : page.getAnnotations()) {
> {code}
>  I found some code for dealing with links in annotations:
> http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7174709/pdfbox-not-recognizing-a-link
> It involves checking the class. 
> {code:java}
> if( annotation instanceof PDAnnotationLink ) {
>                 PDAnnotationLink link = (PDAnnotationLink)annotation;
> {code}
> I hope this helps someone.
