I've integrated it without much looking at it. Anybody got an opinion? Best Martin -- http://www.tm.oneiros.de

From the pdftex mailing list: | Author: Ralf Utermann | Subject: PDF forms (revisited) | Message-ID: <43099329.5060502@Physik.Uni-Augsburg.DE> | [...] | I have a uploaded a patch (#416) to sarovar which implements | a \pdflastlink primitive. A simple example using this is | discussed at http://www.physik.uni-augsburg.de/~ralfu/pdf-forms/
The thread started with:

| when I use the Form environment from hyperref with pdflatex
| I have problems to build a form with TextFields, where one

| other TextFields, like:
pdfTeX already makes the object number available for a large range
of commands: \pdfobj, \pdfannot, ...
\pdfstartlink was missing in this list and the object number
is needed, see above. I cannot find a reason for a secret
object number of the object, generated by \pdfstartlink,
thus \pdflastlink fits well in the list of primitives that
return the object number (\pdflastobj, \pdflastannot, ...).
