Links that span multiple lines of text not exporting to PDF correctly

I have some linking issues that I need help with. I have a paragraph of text and within that paragraph I have highlighted some text to make links to external web pages. Some links work fine because they are only on 1 line, but the other links that span multiple lines of text only work on the first line/row of text when exported to PDF. The other rows beyond the first row do not export as links, but are still underlined like a link would be. They look and work fine in Figma, but lose the link on second and third rows when exported to PDF. I’ve even tried making each row its own link and that doesn’t work either.

Odd thing is that exporting the file last week worked just fine with these multiline links but now they don’t work. I don’t recall doing any updates to Figma, but could have been one of those “update on next launch” things that happened. 

Hopefully this makes sense and that someone else has seen this before. Thanks in advance for any help.

The same thing is happening to me — links don’t work past the first line, or sometimes just the first or second word of the link works and not the rest. Would also appreciate any help!

Apparently, per a conversation with a rep, this is a known issue with Figma and they said they will have this fixed soon. Told me it was supposed to be fixed last week, but still waiting for the update to be completed.
