Embedded links not working in downloaded pdf

Post by JoshyJosh »

When I embed a URL in my doc and compile it, upon clicking on it, it does redirect to the addressed webpage, but when I download the doc as a pdf, clicking on the link has no effect. Below is an example of how I include links. What am I doing wrong?

\cvline{}{blah blah blah \href{https://www.semanticscholar.org/my-paper}{Link}\newline}{}

compiles to => blah blah blah Link

Clicking on the link, after compiling, opens up the intended webpage, but when I download and then click on "Link", nothing happens...
