Maybe you should take a look at the Hyper-G project; they're
including their very own (and very good, anti-aliasing)
PostScript renderer/viewer which supports hypertext links.

All this bitchering about what goes into HTML and what doesn't
makes me wonder why we don't create two standards: presentation
oriented HTML and semantically structured HTML. With the typing
capabilities of MIME, a browser can easily distinguish between
and support multiple formats.
