ABSTRACT:
A System for automatic generation of a hyperlink table from an electronic document comprising hyperlinks, and for identifying, locating and activating these hyperlinks from a physical copy of the electronic document. An electronic document is selected, a hyperlink table is created, and the hyperlink table is associated with a physical copy of the electronic document. For each page of the physical copy the hyperlink items comprised in the page are identified in the document, and an identification of each identified hyperlink item is stored in the table. The identification of information and/or service associated with each identified hyperlink item on the page is retrieved from the document and stored in the hyperlink table. The electronic coordinates of each identified hyperlinked item on the page are retrieved from the document and translated into physical coordinates on the page of the physical copy and stored in the hyperlink table.
