Thanks Christiaan. Two questions:
1) what does the link pointing to a location in a PDF look like (that you 
mention, in principle)? (even if Skim can't add/read it. I'm assuming other 
readers would be able to read such a link and scroll the PDF to the specified 
location?)
2) how does Spotlight open a PDF, say in Skim, while passing the search 
attributes that Skim automatically displays in the 'search' field? is the 
search string passed in the URL to the file? and can skim be instructed to 
automatically search for this 'string' in the notes panel instead of the 
contents panel (which it currently does after Spotlight opens the document in 
Skim)?
Thanks again.
