Created attachment 122689 [details] ScreenShot_2012-01-16 [related to bug #65076] On Lion 10.7.2, when printing to a PDF, the hyperlinks are generated (only recently, since maybe Jan 1, 2012 ) correctly but the color from the hyperlink is gone, leaving little indication of the hyperlink in the PDF (unless you hover over the right words). See ScreenShot_2012-01-16. PDF in Preview.app on left; WebKit on right.

This appears to be correct behavior given the print stylesheet that the page specifies. The print stylesheet referred to from <http://www.readability.com/articles/j2z3oj2i> is <http://du3itj18e4z0b.cloudfront.net/7eefe2/css/print.css>. It contains the following rule: a { color : #000 !important; } That is, all hyperlinks should be black when printed. You'll find that if you attempt to print pages other than those on readability.com that hyperlinks will be colored appropriately.
