Using the \hypersetup{} of \usepackage[tex4ht]{hyperref} (as seen in the MWE below) I am trying to format the hyperlinks of links such as glossary entries so they are less noticeable.
On two different computers (which I would have thought had identical MiKTeX2.9 installations, the packages of which are both up-to-date) give different results...
- On one computer I see blue underlined hyperlinks despite the
citecoloroptions set as seen below - on the other computer I see nicely formatted black text, no underline, but a mouse change when you hover over the hidden hyperlink which bounces you to the glossary, reference, etc.
- I have tested this computer specific but consistent formatting appearance on
Internet Explorer,opera, andgoogle chrome. - no problems generating the pdf in
xelatexon either computer.
Since I don't think it's quite a code problem I am hoping I can get some advice from any of the experts who may know about the underlying system requirements or anything that may interfere:
- Do I possibly have an installed but not used package that is incompatible with the
\hypersetup{} - Is there a font library or html dll that could be different across the windows installations providing different instructions?
- I don't know much about html so I am open to suggestions.

TeXdebugging toolbox. I would like to remove the underlines as well, so have tried to parallel your additions to thecfgfile with\Css{a:text-decoration:none;}\Css{a:visited{text-decoration:none;}\Css{a:hover{text-decoration:underline;}}\Css{a:active{text-decoration:underline;}}but I am missing something - a set of braces at minimum in the first two at least I am sure (if I even got the code correct). – EngBIRD Mar 15 '15 at 15:48\Css{a{text-decoration:none;}}. but if you remove underlining and the links have the same color as text, how would you identify links in the document? – michal.h21 Mar 15 '15 at 15:52\Css{a:hover{text-decoration:underline;}}. Unlike most people who probably want to draw attention to links (url, cross ref) I use an absurd amount ofglossariescalls which create an unreadable paragraph with all the underlining and color changes. Gls calls give me dynamic control over definitions, abbrev., suppliers, catalog numbers, symbols, and even data values and statistics. I also expect this technical document to be read in field so the mouse and formatting change observed when hovering is sufficient attention to the link. – EngBIRD Mar 15 '15 at 16:15
