Not to my knowledge. Results will vary from browser to browser. Some will load an Acrobat plug-in, some will save the file and launch the acrobat reader application, etc etc. > I want my > visitor to use the navigation system of my website.

I *personally* HATE having to click through twenty pages, when I could just scroll one or two pages. Each to their own of course. The only reason I would break an article/story up over a few pages would be to get more advertising banners / spaces per article. A html/php solution would be to split the story at the nearest paragraph breaks every 300 words (or whatever figure you choose), split the story up on those breaks, and generate a mutli-page HTML "book" with next and prev buttons.
