PDF Reference Linker

Create internal PDF links from a reference map. Preview locally, export a linked copy, and keep the original untouched.

Add clickable internal links to repeated PDF references without creating every go-to-page link by hand. PDF Reference Linker finds literal references such as “Appendix B”, “Exhibit A” or “Section 4” in selectable PDF text. Map each label to a physical destination page, review every match and destination, deselect false positives, then export a separate linked PDF. You can import label,target_page CSV rows, import internal bookmark titles or enter mappings manually. Opening the PDF, creating mappings, scanning, reviewing matches and downloading the CSV report are free. Linked PDF export requires Pro: €9 once including tax for version 1, with no subscription, no license expiry and up to three active browsers. Every PDF export requires an online license check. Dodo Payments handles payment and license delivery. PDF content, filenames, mappings, previews and reports stay on your device. Only license activation and validation contact the payment provider. The extension does not read visited websites, upload documents, run analytics or use an AI service. Scope: one selectable-text PDF up to 50 MiB and 500 pages; up to 500 labels and 10,000 matches; literal whole-word matching with optional case sensitivity; references on one visual line. Existing link areas are skipped and reported. Physical PDF page positions start at 1. The original is never overwritten. Scanned PDFs need OCR first. Encrypted, signed and XFA PDFs are unsupported. Complex layouts need manual review, and documented browser resource limits can stop dense scans before the maximum file, page or match counts. The extension does not infer destinations, create web links, edit existing links, certify accessibility or guarantee filing compliance. Support: contact@kastovia.com
