    This also happens with interactive Table of Contents and bookmarks. After packaging the document they still appear to be correct in InDesign (i.e. clicking on an bookmark in the bookmarks panel in ID opens a document that looks right), but in fact both TOC and bookmarks still point to the ORIGINAL location, not the packaged one, and will not work in the exported PDF.
    Note that the links to the first document (the one the bookmarks live in) will be correct, but the ones to all the other documents won't.

    The solution was posted here by Tak Osato:

    Apparently InDesign retains the absolute paths to anchors and cross-references when packaging and switches to relative paths only when it can't find the original location. So in order to get an interactive PDF with all the links working correctly (short of regenerating and re-styling the TOC), you have to rename or move the original folder.

    This is a huge issue (and apparently has been for many years). Please fix this.
