This should within a day be at your local mirror. Thanks again, Jim Hef{}feron Saint Michael's College ................................................................................ The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: hrefhide Version number: 1.0b Author's name: Hans-Martin Münch Location on CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/hrefhide Summary description: Provides the command hrefdisplayonly .

While the (hyperlinked) text appears like an ordinary href 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. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/muench/hrefhide .
