Negating Footnote Links

Post by senatortcj »

I'm trying to format a document to meet my University's dissertation standards and I'm running into an odd problem.

When I produce a PDF of the TeX document, there is a red box around every footnote number in the text of that PDF. When you click on this red box, it immediately jumps you down to the footnote itself at the bottom of the page.

The guidelines for dissertations at my University tell me to get rid of these boxes (essentially to negate the ability within the PDF to use the footnote numbers within text as links to the footnote at the bottom of the page). Is there a way to do this within the TeX document?

Hi,

assuming that you are using the hyperref package, then you can add the hyperfootnotes=false package option; i.e., you can load it in the following way:

Code: Select all

\usepackage[hyperfootnotes=false]{hyperref}
הההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההה

The hyperref summary of options contains all the main available options for the package.
