I am having some trouble with the hyperref package in terms of it not actually providing links to my internal references.

If I use the pdflatex command to compile my document to a pdf, the links work fine.

However if I use the latex command to compile to a dvi and then dvi2pdf (or whatever this command is actually called) to create the pdf, there will be no linking at all.

Since I am including .eps images, I cannot use pdflatex.

Is there any way to get the hyperref package to work correctly when using latex -> dvi2pdf rather than pdflatex?


Thanks in advance...

Ok I managed to solve the problem.


For anyone else that might be interested:

I was including the package with:
\usepackage{hyperref}


However if I include it with:
\usepackage[dvipdfm]{hyperref}


Then it works when I use dvipdfm to convert to pdf.
