Hi there.

I am having an issue with my Table of Contents.  All my links works except for the items that have a superscript in them.  In the example below, when I create the PDF and hover over the items the three words of (Modes of Operation) are hot links that take me to page 26.  When I hover over the second entry I2C Digital Interface the only item that is a hot link is the letter I.  Our goal is to have the entire entry a hot link for customers to hit and go directly to the page.  I think the superscript is breaking the link.

Example below:

Modes of Operation .........26

I2C Digital Interface ............28

HELP!!!

    > I think the superscript is breaking the link.

    And you would be correct. It's terminating a character range, and the hypetext generated for it.

    See:TOC link with a subscript character does not work in PDF

    To save you a click, the solution is to use a Unicode natively superscripted 2 (U+00B2, \u00b2 if you prefer to do it as a Variable), and not as a normal 2 with a <Superscript> Character Format applied.
