Bug#452222: Annoying border around hyperlinks
Hi, Adobe Reader also draws a border (black, not blue) around the links in the document, so I guess this is the correct behaviour. -- Cheers, Sven Arvidsson http://www.whiz.se PGP Key ID 760BDD22 signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

AFAICT html2ps was version 1.0b5-5 both before and after I noticed this change, so perhaps evince was (until recently) ignoring this request. That is, evince not drawing the borders was a bug and the bug was recently fixed. This is just a guess; I'm not at all familiar with PostScript or PDF. signature.asc Description: Digital signature

It occurs to me that another explanation is possible -- the conversion from html2ps' PostScript to evince's PDF is done by ps2pdf, from ghostscript. Perhaps a recent upgrade of ghostscript added this feature. signature.asc Description: Digital signature
