Links in word converting to PDF

I have a large word document (40 pages) with links to local files. It works fine in Word however, when I convert it to PDF using Acrobat 5.0 none of the links work. They are not even links.
Does anyone know how I can create the PDF and maintain the links?

How are you converting it? By printing, all links will be removed, last I checked. With the direct conversion stuff, they are preserved.

Thanks Feyd,
What do you mean by direct conversion?

I don't recall if 5 had the plug-ins added to Word yet, but I know 7 does. Basically, there's a palette added that contains a few buttons, all of which do various conversions to PDF. The button reads the entirety of the document and converts everything to working variants in PDF.
