Hello,
I happen to need to include a PDF which uses unusual link annotations. Instead of something like:
<< /A << /D (aff1a) /S /GoTo >> /Border [ 0 0 0 ] /C [ 1 0 0 ] /F 4 /H /I /Rect [ 104.214 577.913 110.231 586.941 ] /Subtype /Link /Type /Annot >>
there's
<< /Border [ 0 0 0 ] /C [ 1 0 0 ] /Dest (aff0001) /H /I /Rect [ 109.005 570.781 115.335 584.308 ] /Subtype /Link /Type /Annot >>
The error I'm getting is:
backend > link > missing link annotation
This appears to be okay according to PDF reference [PDFref, pages 492 and 501], and it's also supported in poppler [poppler-link]. But it's not supported in lpdf-epd.lua.
[PDFref]: https://www.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/en/devnet/pdf/pdfs/pdf_reference_arch... [popplet-link]: https://github.com/danigm/poppler/blob/0011805e22193b690b99a53dcb9986ce04eb3...
I applied this workaround and it fixed the issue for me:

Please consider applying a similar fix to the ConTeXt source code. Thanks!
sure, it's a harmless patch and if it works ok ...
I'm not sure I can attach the actual PDF as it's a recent Elsevier pub, but I managed to manually craft one from the ConTeXt hello world using qpdf --stream-data=uncompress --object-streams=disable and vim, and I'm attaching that. The equation references work in PDF readers but stop working after passing through \copypages[Hello-world-weird.pdf][][interaction=yes].
