No fault at all, on the contrary. This collective knowledge is built by
everyone that participates. :)

I'll do, as that solution has the best of both worlds. :)

This linking capacity is great and I'm using it a lot.

The only detail remaining here that I'm still searching is how to
include the table/figure # also with the link. This is because if
someone prints the report, the link becomes unusable without a number.

An example would be:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Lorem ipsum... 

#+CAPTION: A beautiful caption for this table. 
#+NAME: table:tablename
#+ATTR_LATEX: :environment longtable
[the table]

A lot of text, going pages long.

In this paragraph, there is a [[tablename][link to the table]]. 
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

This renders the link perfectly, but in the linked text <link to the
table> there is no further reference. How can the (automagically added)
number be included, like in <link to the table #12)?

Just for the sake of making it ultra complete (I don't feel it necessary
really), the link could use the id only to point, and be rendered as
<table # (page N)>.

I'm sure it's there but even having read the manual I still lack the
emacspeak to find it, or maybe to understand that I already read over
it. :)

Anyway, Have a great day...
