Last things first! Hyperlinks are not passed through to PDF via the PostScript route. However, Acrobat and Reader do have a feature, on by default, that recognizes text that looks like hyperlinks and treats such text as a hyperlink.

Using comparable joboptions should give comparable results between direct PDF export and distillation of PostScript. What could make a difference is whether ICC color profiles are embedded in the resultant PDF file via export. Having said that, such profiles lead to higher reliability and should be so-embedded. Beyond that, we would need to know your joboptions exactly and also see thre original InDesign document and resultant PDF files.
