README for hrefhide package, 2011/04/29, v1.0f TABLE OF CONTENTS ================= 1 Introduction 2 Download 3 Installation 4 Additional Packages 5 New Features 6 Package Compatibility 7 Authors/Maintainers 8 Bug Reports 9 Known Problems 1 INTRODUCTION ============== This package provides the command \hrefdisplayonly (additionally to \href of the hyperref package by Heiko Oberdiek). While the (hyperlinked) text appears like an ordinary nhref in the compiled pdf-file, the same text will be "hidden" when printing the text. It is not really invisible, but just has the same colour as the background (default: white). Therefore the layout is not changed when printing the document. Further the commands \hycon and \hycoff (hyper-colour-on/off) can be used to simulate switching option ocgcolorlinks of hyperref package on and off. 2 DOWNLOAD ========== `hrefhide' is available on CTAN: CTAN:macros/latex/contrib/hrefhide/ Also a ZIP file is provided that contains the files, already sorted in a TDS tree (should become available on CTAN soon): CTAN:install/macros/latex/contrib/hrefhide.tds.zip `CTAN:' means one of the `Comprehensive TeX Archive Network' nodes or one of its mirrors. This is explained in http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=archives The CTAN stuff will be mirrored automatically from the ftp server, so ftp://ftp.tug.org/pub/tex/pagesLTS/ corresponds to CTAN:macros/latex/contrib/pagesLTS/ 3 INSTALLATION ============== Installation with ZIP file in TDS format ---------------------------------------- The ZIP file `hrefhide.tds.zip' contains the files sorted in a TDS tree. Thus you can directly unpack the ZIP file inside a TDS tree. (See CTAN:tds.zip for an explanation of TDS.) Example: cd /...somewhere.../texmf unzip /...downloadpath.../hrefhide.tds.zip Do not forget to refresh the file name database of this TDS tree. Example: texhash /...somewhere.../texmf Manual installation ------------------- a) Download the hrefhide files from CTAN or the TUG server. If necessary, unpack them. b) Generate the package and driver files: tex hrefhide.ins c) Install the files `*.sty', and `*.cfg' in your TDS tree: cp *.sty *.cfg TDS:tex/latex/hrefhide/ Replace `TDS:' by the prefix of your TDS tree (texmf directory). d) Copy the documentation files to "TDS:doc/latex/hrefhide/": README, hrefhide.pdf, hrefhide-example.tex, hrefhide-example.pdf. e) Update the databases if necessary, e.g. for teTeX: mktexlsr .../texmf 4 ADDITIONAL PACKAGES ===================== Depending on the driver and option settings, hrefhide loads other packages: * hyperref.sty: CTAN:macros/latex/contrib/hyperref/hyperref.dtx * kvoptions.sty: CTAN:macros/latex/contrib/oberdiek/kvoptions.dtx * xcolor.sty: CTAN:/macros/latex/contrib/xcolor/xcolor.dtx which again load other packages (see the result of the \listfiles command in the log-file of the example). 5 PACKAGE COMPATIBILITY ======================= hrefhide must be loaded AFTER package hyperref: Package loading order: \usepackage[ocgcolorlinks]{hyperref} \usepackage{hrefhide} 6 AUTHOR/MAINTAINER ===================== * Hans-Martin Münch 7 BUG REPORTS ============== A bug report should contain: * Comprehensive problem description. This includes error or warning messages. * \errorcontextlines=\maxdimen can be added in the TeX code to get more informations in TeX error messages. * Minimal test file that shows the problem, but does not contain any unnecessary packages and code. * Used drivers/programs. * Version information about used packages and programs. * If you are using LaTeX, then add "\listfiles". Then a list of version informations is printed at the end of the LaTeX run. * Please no other files than the minimal test file. The other files .log, .dvi, .ps, .pdf are seldom necessary, so send them only on request. * Please .zip or .tar.gz your file(s) before sending them! Bug address ----------- Bug reports can be send to the maintainer: Hans-Martin Münch 8 KNOWN PROBLEMS ================= * as yet: none... - Well, of course there are all issues of the hyperref package with ocgcolorlinks option, e.g. no linebreaks inside links.
