Issue descriptionUserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/55.0.2865.0 Safari/537.36 Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. View a PDF that has internal links, e.g. http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/halibut/doc-1.1/halibut.pdf 2. Hover the mouse over a URL link and notice that the URL is shown in the lower left. 3. Hover the mouse over a link to a page. What is the expected behavior? What went wrong? The destination page number should be shown in the lower left, but nothing appears. Did this work before? No Chrome version: 55.0.2865.0 Channel: canary OS Version: 6.1 (Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2) Flash Version: (This is somewhat more frustrating because there is no history support for jumping between pages.)

Sure, here it is in screenshots: a) Mouse is over an HTTP link in a PDF. The URL is shown in the status bar. b) Mouse is over a link to some page in the PDF. The status bar doesn't appear.

That's a link to an external (HTTP) URL, and the status bar appears showing the URL, just as in my screenshot and original bug description. Find a link to *another page* of the PDF, e.g. the table of contents or the index. Those don't tell you where they'll take you until you click.
