Hi,

I'm new to cl-typesetting, and I'm trying to get a feel for how  
everything works.  I've looked for documentation and examples on the  
web, but can't find much.  So, first off -- can anyone point me to  
anything besides the source that might help with getting oriented?

Second, the concrete task I'm attempting to accomplish is to put text  
hyperlinks in a PDF.  My understanding is that this needs to be done  
by using a hyperlink annotation -- which only provides a bounding box  
for the area which should provide the link.  I think I can do this  
with cl-pdf, but I need to be able to work out the coordinates for  
the bounding box of a given piece of text -- in order to accomplish  
what I want to do.  Can anyone advise me as to how best to accomplish  
this?  Ideally, there would be a high-level construct to make this  
possible, and I'm happy to try to implement such a thing once I  
understand how to do so.  Any advice will be appreciated.

Thanks,
Chhi'mèd
