This article is applied to Deep CDR releases deployed on Windows and Linux systems.
Issue:
After Deep CDR sanitization, visible text resembling a URL in documents opened in Microsoft Office or PDF Reader is automatically reconstructed as a hyperlink, even though the underlying hyperlink was removed.
Resolution:
- Office Documents
Enable the option "Add hyperlink prefix". This modifies the hyperlink format (e.g., from http:// to OPSWAThttp://), rendering it unclickable while still preserving the original text for reference.

Enable the option “Remove hyperlink annotations and prevent clickable links auto-turning.” This setting removes existing hyperlinks and prevents them from being automatically recreated.
