Hi there,

Just created a web viewer that shows the contents of a pdf, but I wanted to be able to link to a bookmark that is in the PDF.

I have tried the PDF Open Paramaters as documented here:

http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/acrobat/PDFOpenParameters.pdf

Yet this doesn't work.

Example:

http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/acrobat/PDFOpenParameters.pdf#page=10

doesn't go to that page

Does anyone have any input on going to a bookmark or page using PDF Open parameters or other ways to do it in FileMaker?

Kind regards

Don't worry about this one now.

I am going down a different path - I will use Acrobat to split the pdf up. Then I will have multiple documents instead.

  • 1 month later...

I got some of the parameters to work... but not that consistently and with some error messages that Acrobat was not responding. I needed to write the path in Filemaker's file syntax: "file://C:/Documents and Settings/Me/My Documents/Downloads/MYPDF.pdf#page="&Photo Catalog::page

This would (usually) show the PDF in the web viewer at the specified page... which is pretty cool. Using the Open URL script to open the PDF to the page on the other hand, worked a few times, but then no more. It would open the file, but not navigate to the page.
