Let me try to be more clear. There is foo.html and the friend of mine
wants to convert it to foo.pdf, which on our computer can be done by

html2ps foo.html > foo.ps
ps2pdf foo.ps

Now links become boxed which is the default in pdf. However, he would
like to have them colored instead. Is there a  way to do this and also
set Document Properties without using Acrobat? I am aware that neither
hyperref nor TeX are executed and \hypersetup is ignored but I wonder
if it is possible to configure ps2pdf in the way that affects foo.pdf
in the same way as \hyperrefsetup would affect it, if we started from
foo.tex
