Since Mavericks you can´t insert hyperlinks in pdf-documents. I miss this option in the preview. Are there any other possibilities?
(I have MS Office for apple, therefore the links get lost, if I convert it to pdf).

I think you need Adobe Acrobat Pro to get the links to be active.
You can also insert hyperlinks if you export the PDF from Adobe InDesign.
I can't find any way to insert hyperlinks in Preview; they disappear from my Word document when saved as a PDF. But if I open the Word document in Pages (v. 5.2), the hyperlinks are there. I can then click on File/Export/PDF, and now the hyperlinks are retained. Sounds like Apple wants us all to switch to Pages! If I could figure out how to improve the way the text renders on my 22" monitor I might use it more. And, oh yeah, get the rest of the world to use Pages instead of Microsoft Office!
No one here can guess what "Apple wants." This is just an end user forum. There are open source alternatives to Pages and Office you may want to research: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6941
http://www.apple.com/feedback is where you can put your two cents if you so desire to get Apple to consider them.
