Manual does not mention that. However, looking into the code handling opening file links, I can see that it is actually possible. By default, the link like file:document.pdf::10 would run system command used to open pdfs with "document.pdf::10" argument. Whether that system command supports such kind of argument is another question (answer: probably, no). On the other hand, user can customise org-file-apps variable and put a lisp function to handle link opening. That function can transform the "document.pdf::10" into something that can be passed to the pdf viewer in system. > One possible solution could be this.
