The difference you are seeing, links/no links, is due to different pdf viewers. 
Some, 
acroread being one example, think they are being helpful by looking for strings 
which 
look like links and making them clickable, this can be turned off. Whereas all 
viewers will 
show clickable links when proper links are embedded.

It appears that Jan's macos Preview viewer is another of those "helpful" ones.
