The submitter having not answered the comment #1 questions in over four years, and Deri being unable to reproduce the problem, I'm closing this as Unreproducible.  The submitter won't get email about this, but if that person checks back here and responds with more info, it can be reopened.

I was unable to see a problem with the seealso pdf. All the hotspots seemed to be in the correct place, i.e. when I clicked on the hotspotted word the link opened, when I moved off the word, the mouse pointer changed shape.

Is it the vertical position of the text itself which you suspect is wrong, i.e. extra space introduced by using .pdfhref?

My observations were done using the okular pdf viewer. Which viewer are you using?

I have also added:-

.ds PDFHREF.BORDER 0 0 1

As the first line of seealso.man, which draws a box around each hotspot. How does this look on your setup?

I am unsure of where this error originates, pdfmark.tmac, grops, ghostscript, or ???  Please check the attached image to see where the hotspot actually appears - it is not on the item.  The vertical distance between the hotspot and where it should be increases with .pdfhref entry

Please see attachments for test files,
1) seealso.man
2) SAMakefile
3) resulting seealso.pdf

command as invoked by make::>

pdfroff --no-toc -t -p -man -mpdfmark -fP -rLL=5.2i -rLT=5.2i -rD1 -dc_date="`date +'%e %b %Y'`" -dc_year="`date +%Y`" seealso.man > seealso.pdf
cp seealso.pdf ../../html/dflibg/pdf/

[note: everything is really boluxed without --no-toc]
