Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ hyperef_ExternalApplications

[madalina09]

I am using TexShop on a Mac OS X to create a beamer presentation using the beamer package.
I want to know if it is possible to create hyperlinks from latex to external applications. For example I have this program that displays pictures of mathematical objects after computing them, and I want at some point to jump from the pdf file to this application. I was wondering if this is possible.

Thank you in advance.
Best wishes,
madalina

It's possible, but not every viewer supports all kinds of hyperlinks. Try \href or \url (see section 4 of the hyperref manual for details).
