Dear Mark,
I was going to say sure until you said you don't want to use Javascript.
With Javascript you would have had to:
a. Put the PDF files in the same folder (or learned path notation).
b. Create a field (button, or text preferably).
c. Add the following code to the Mouse Down event of the newly created field
(changing <filename> to valid "filename.pdf" for you current machine.
var originalDoc = this;
var testvar = app.popUpMenu("PDF new file 1","PDF new file 2");
if (testvar == "PDF new file 1"){
app.openDoc(<filename>, this); // adding the second argument forces relative path
links
originalDoc.closeDoc(false); // this will cause you to save the original file if
any changes were made
this.pageNum = 0; // display the page you would like (0 = first page, 1 = second
page ...)
}
if (testvar == "PDF new file 2"){
app.openDoc(<filename>, this);
originalDoc.closeDoc(false);
this.pageNum = 0;
}
Good Luck,
Sam Brenner

I had such great success with the last question I posted to the list I am
going to pose a problem I had more or less given up on.
What I want to do is this:
Mainly for reasons of lack of space on the appropriate pages of many pdfs we
need to use something like a combo box that goes to appropriate pages in the
same and other pdfs. The twist being that the combo box in a non roll over
state needs to just be a normal looking button icon. There is no space for
the full menu to appear as it will obscure other content.
Ie on screen in a non rollover state it just looks like a round red aqua
style button. When rolled over the combo box like menu options are revealed
and the user clicks on the appropriate menu listing and then is taken to
that page.
For example the drop down box would offer: same doc page 10, different doc a
page 23, different doc b page 12, another doc etc. in its menu and
selecting one would go to that destination.
I can't see any way of approximating this behaviour without reverting to
JavaScript which I know nothing about.
Any suggestions would be gladly received. As I said, I had given up on this
one so there is no harm in trying.
cheers
Mark
