Ciao Tilman,

while waiting for a "lorem ipsum" pdf (..still waiting...) I've resolved
the problem using findDestinationPage (below is the code).
the strange is that both methods current.action  and current.destination
give null.
By exploring the pdf with PDFDebbugger as per your suggestions online, I
see actionGoto set on bookmarks.
Moreover the PDF has been created as an Arbortext export to pdf.
What do u think, could it be possible the pdf is malformed?  (unfortunately
I don't have the permit to share it as it contains confidential infos)
Many thanks

here is my code (Kotlin):

val file = File("/home/miki/a/cover.pdf")
val document = PDDocument.load(file)

val outline = document.documentCatalog.documentOutline

val current = outline.firstChild.firstChild.nextSibling   // testing
bookmark of para 2.1

                                println( current.getTitle())


//val gta = current.action as PDActionGoTo        // is null

//val pd = current.destination as PDPageDestination   //is null too

val pd = current.findDestinationPage(document) //as PDPageDestination


val allpages = document.getDocumentCatalog().pages
var pageNumber = allpages.indexOf(pd)+1


println("Destination page: " + pageNumber )

document.close()
