Using docbook and Apache FOP I can create PDFs that contain cross-references. For example, the Table of Contents of a book looks like this: Chapter 1 Introduction........................12Using the ancient xpdf I can click on the page number 12 and be taken to page 12. Whenever the pointer is on a cross-reference (also for references to figures, tables, sections, etc.) it turns from an arrow into a left-pointing hand to indicate click me to follow the reference. evince can do the same.For some reason, okular appears unable to do this. I tried left-middle-right clicks, with and without CTRL, ALT, SHIFT keys. Is this just a configuration snag? Or is okular in fact unable to follow cross-references?I'm using Okular 0.20.2 Using KDE Development Platform 4.14.2 on FreeBSD 11.
Does okular/poppler support following intra-document cross-references in PDF files?

It wasn't a configuration snag, but a user interface snag: following links works while using the Browse Tool (Icon: mouse), but not while using the Zoom Tool (Icon: Looking glass over paper sheet) or the Selection Tool (Icon: pencil in corner of frame).
