Removing the link boxes from Latex’ Hyperref (and color)

Aah Latex… A love hate relation ship. Working on my thesis I use the hyperref package for some nice linking support in my document. unfortunately this also causes them to get link boxes around them. Here’s the code to remove them:

\usepackage[pdftex]{hyperref}
\hypersetup{
    colorlinks,%
    citecolor=black,%
    filecolor=black,%
    linkcolor=black,%
    urlcolor=black
}

This makes the links use colors inststead of boxes/frames, and sets the used colors to black. Fixed! Although this should be a standard convenience option imho.

    Thank you so much buddy. I was so looking for this. You are right it’s a love and hate relationship. Sometimes Latex is a real pain in the ass and sometimes is really gratifying.
