Not the best workaround, but it works. If you export the file as an RTF file, you can copy what you need and paste it into another program with links working. e.g. I need to be able to copy tables with hyperlinks from InDesign to Outlook. There does not seem to be a way to do this without losing all of the links. When I output it as an RTF and open it in word, I can copy the table, links and all, and paste it into Outlook with the links still working.
The only other way is to export as a pdf and select the option to include hyperlinks. Then you can just attach the PDF to your email.
For me, the first option works best as I don't need to include an attachment. It is an extra step, but it works and I can still use InDesign instead of Word.
I hope this helps someone out there.
Adobe: Please, Pleeeaaase fix this. It is important to a lot of people.
