Text Formatting ⇒ animate, hyperref | Combination and possible Problems

[svend_tveskaeg]

Hi all.

I am playing around with the animate package.

Can one use the animate* and the hyperref packages in the same document? (A quick search through both manuals gave nothing; that said, it could very well be noted in there somewhere.)

If so, how?

Thank you in advance!

*) The newest version of the manual is not on texdoc.net as far as I can see.

What should happen? More than errors cannot occur. But if you obey the rule to load animate before hyperref (as almost all other packages), there should be no problems.

The newest version can always be found on CTAN.

If I use

Code: Select all

latex <filename>.tex
dvips <filename>.dvi
ps2pdf <filename>.ps

instead of

Code: Select all

pdflatex <filename>.tex

(as Herbert told me ) there is no problem at all.

P.S. I always load hyperref as the last package.

Define no driver for hyperref, load it only with options for colors, links and so on.

\usepackage[pdftex,...]{hyperref} is wrong if you use the dvi path. \usepackage[...]{hyperref} is always the good choice

I always use the following combination:

Code: Select all

\usepackage{hyperref}

\newif\ifprint
%\printfalse
\printtrue

\makeatletter
\@ifpackageloaded{hyperref}{
  \ifprint
    \hypersetup{
      breaklinks,
      colorlinks=false,
      pdfborder={0 0 0}
    }
  \else
    \hypersetup{
      breaklinks,
      bookmarksopen=true,
      breaklinks=true,
      colorlinks=true,
      citecolor=blue,
      linkcolor=red,
      urlcolor=teal
    }
  \fi
}{}
\makeatother

and then outcomment \printfalse or \printtrue depending on whether the document is for print or screen view.
