How to access hyperlinks in PDF documents (iPhone)?

Is it possible to get access to "internal" links in PDF documents using CGPDFDocument, or other means? I'm building a simple reader app and would like to deliver my content in PDF form, but if I can't support links between pages in the doc this probably isn't going to work.

This question is similar, but does not address the issue of how to support hyperlinks.
