Feature request: QR codes with automatic hyperlink and CC library elements with hyperlinks.

[RobertDV]

Hi,

1. to improve our workflow, it would be very helpful if generated QR codes would also be clickable (hyperlink) when exporting to interactive pdf format.
   
   
2. We want our logo's to always link to our website. When I add a hyperlink (attribute/image map/URL) to our logo (from the cc library) in Illustrator, and then try to use it in an indesign document, the hyperlink is gone. Would be very helpful if we could simply drag our logo's from the library and that the hyperlinks are already included.

Can't check right now, but what if you store your logo - as a heperlinked object? 

Or maybe, instead of Libraries - you'll use Snippets? Yes, it would require external folder - but it would work way better = more stable / predictable, than Library. 

And you can still call it a Library 😉 

For now, about 1) - it can be easily scripted.

I'll just note that QR codes are not always URLs. Any kind of auto-click feature would have to be selectable or optional.

But QR codes, as created, are just images. You can use a variety of workflows to make an image clickable; there may even be a plugin or script out there to streamline the process. That is, don't get lost down the road that QR codes are somehow special or magical in this regard. They're just a weird picture. 🙂
