tex2pdf inserts this \usepackage tag as well, so you should not put in
there. Instead you should use the perl port of tex2pdf and set the
parameters or the command line options accordingly.
The following of your hyperref parameters are handled explicitly by
tex2pdf: pdftitle, pdfauthor, pdftex, linktocpage, letterpaper,
colorlinks;
The remaining parameters have to be put in the following parameter/option:
--hyperref_args VALUE:
specify extra arguments for the hyperref package
