conserving clickable hyperlinks on pdf

easyw
Hi,
hoping I'm posting the query at the right forum...

I'm converting an adoc with asciidoctor and fopub and with asciidoctor-pdf.

The process is fine, the only thing I'm missing are hyperlinks...
I mean the generated pdf contains the link with a legend to the link, but it is not clickable...
Is there an option to conserve the clickable link I have in HTML file?
I use the following commands to convert it:
1. adoc to HTML
asciidoctor sample.adoc
the generated sample.html file has clickable hyperlinks

2. adoc to PDF
asciidoctor -b docbook sample.adoc
fopub sample.xml
the  generated sample.pdf file has NOT clickable hyperlinks (just a legend with the link, but not cickable)
if I use
asciidoctor-pdf sample.doc
the  generated sample.pdf file has NOT clickable hyperlinks NOR a legend with the links

here there is  the sample.adoc:

= Document Title
Doc Writer <doc@example.com>

A sample http://asciidoc.org[AsciiDoc] document.

A sample hyperlink link:http://google.com[Google]

https://www.wikipedia.org/

sample.adoc with hyperlinks

Hi,
thanks to a friend I discovered that the generated doc was just fine; hyperlinks where not clickable because of the pdf reader.
changing the reader I had no problem with the links.

Regards
Maurice
