It appears that on Fedora 18, Adobe Acrobat Reader

I tried the same PDF file on F13 and it works.

Is it a bug or is there something I need to do
to make this work?

I changed the Firefox preference->Application: "Portable
Document Format (PDF)" from "Preview in Firefox" to
"Use Adobe Reader 9.5 (in Firefox)" and now PDF hyperlinks
works!

Congratulations! You went from a reasonably safe Firefox feature to a
known buggy and security unsecured Adobe Reader.

Google search for "Adobe Reader Security Breach".

Probably the reason that Adobe won't make anything more for Linux is
that so many people like this bitch about it all the time.

Foxit Reader is better, IMO, and supported.

Why is the latest foxit release FC-9?
