## Detailed Description

PdfLinkDelegate provides the component that QML-based PDF viewers instantiate on top of each hyperlink that is found on each PDF page.

This component does not provide any visual decoration, because often the hyperlinks will already be formatted in a distinctive way; but when the mouse cursor hovers, it changes to Qt::PointingHandCursor, and a tooltip appears after a delay. Clicking emits the goToLocation() signal if the link is internal, or calls Qt.openUrlExternally() if the link contains a URL.
