Is there any way to add a clickable link to a PDF in Preview? On OSX 10.13.6

Apple removed this feature after OS X Snow Leopard, and it never returned to Preview. You will need a (paid) third-party PDF Editor (see Mac App Store, e.g. PDFPen, PDF Expert, etc.) that provides the link annotation feature.


Alternatively, if you have the source document from which the PDF was created, you can add a link from within it using the default application, and export to PDF again.
