That makes sense. Perhaps now that Print Replica is about to see a lot more usage, it will be a much higher priority issue than it has been thus far.

It seems it would be trivial to write a test that just compares the number of links in the PDF with the number in the PR. I have to assume they are at least doing that. The hard part is gathering and managing the test data, and deciding how to handle non compliant PDFs.
