[Inkscape-user] Create an URL in Inkscape

I'm not entirely sure about this but my first instinct is that exporting to
PDF from inkscape wouldn't maintain href links as that is probably
something for SVG export.

Someone with more knowledge can weigh in on this, but I can confirm that an
href on text converted to a link will not present itself as a link in a PDF
saved directly from inkscape.

Hello all,
I just wanted to create a simple document (PDF) to explain how to do
something on a webpage. I wanted to insert an URL, but couldn't find out
how.
The tutorial<http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Frequently_asked_questions#How_do_I_make_a_SVG_object_that_link_to_an_internet_site_when_I_click_on_it_.3F>explains that *"you
can **create clickable links from objects
<http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/linking.html>** in Inkscape by right clicking
the object, and clicking 'Create Link'. Then, right click your new link and
choose 'Link Properties' to set the web address and many other properties".
*
In my case, this didn't work (it remains non clickable).
Can anyone try to reproduce this?
