> In case someone else has the same problem: my PDFs generated by Forrest
> contained relative URLs for site-internal links which the PDF viewer
> then couldn't open because it didn't know the start URL. Attached is a
> patch for document-to-fo.xsl which turns relative URLs into absolute
> ones in the PDF. It applies to 0.8 cleanly only after also applying the
> PDF summary patch in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOR-355#action_12505910
> Otherwise be prepared for a few line offset warnings.
> I enabled this in my skinconf.xml with:

>       Normally all links inside a Forrest site are relative. This
>       does not work well in PDFs which are typically viewed outside of
>       the web site. Setting this option adds the given prefix to all
>       relative URLs, both to the link as well as the optional, additional text.
