RE: Link from HTML to PDF
I knew that then. I wasn't aware of the solution that Rick Quatro came up with. Rick's response solved Pat's problem and I, as well as many others I would guess, learned something that just might come in handy. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] m] On Behalf Of Stuart Rogers Sent: Friday, October 20, 2006 10:35 AM Cc: framers List Subject: Re: Link from HTML to PDF Spreadbury, David wrote: > Pat, You want to set the Document Properties > Initial View to force > the PDF to open on the specific page. > > > > From: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] on > behalf of Pat Christenson Sent: Wed 10/18/2006 12:32 PM To: framers > List Subject: Link from HTML to PDF > > > > Hi - > > My client wants to link from an HTML webpage to a specific page in a > PDF doc.

Your solution would cause the PDF to *always* open on the specific page, whereas the requirement is only that it open there when launched from a particular link. Other links might require other pages as targets, and the pdf might also be used as a stand-alone document that should open at the cover or TOC. I think Rick Q. had the better approach with named destinations.

Re: Link from HTML to PDF
Thanks Rick. That's exactly the sort of thing I needed.

FrameMaker usually creates a named desination for each page in the form P.#, where # is the page number.

Hi Pat, If you open the PDF with Acrobat and choose View > Navigation Tabs > Destinations, you will see a list of named destinations in the file. FrameMaker usually creates a named desination for each page in the form P.#, where # is the page number. So, to open the PDF at page 3, you can use http://www.myurl.com/mypdf.pdf#nameddest=P.3 Or, without named destinations, you can use this http://www.myurl.com/mypdf.pdf#page=3 Note that you can't test these locally; they only work across an internet connection.
