I think you're on the right track. On another web forum, I was told that something like you suggested could only be done in a web server. I've tried creating what is called a "named destination" in the pdf and adding it onto the file extension when inserting the hyperlink into word. For example, "...books.pdf#nameddestination". It doesn't work--the pdf just opens to page 1! Any ideas? >>> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 10/06/03 13:51 PM >>> What you are wanting is something similar to HTML whereby you can create a link, not just to products.html but products.html#vacuums which will take you to the named anchor called vacuums on the products page. PDFs can be setup with links internally which will then take the user to a particular view which in essence is the same as what you are asking. If a Word doc has been PDF'd, the links to headings, as I had described earlier, will carry through to the PDF and allow the link to take the user to the same heading. What you are wanting to know (I think) is if these headings or targets in a PDF are accessible from outside the PDF such as Instructions.pdf#assembly.
