How to link to a page inside a PDF file?

PDF users,
I can link to a PDF file from a web page, for example, with the <a href> tag. Is there a way to link to somewhere inside the PDF file, for example to a page number or a heading title?
Yours,

Hi,
I lost track of this note but I need to revisit the nameddest option. I can get the page option to work but would like to link to chapter headings to avoid having to adjust the page options whenever the page count changes.
I am using Acrobat XI and generate PDF bookmarks from Framemaker 12. The file opens with the bookmark panel to the left and content to the right. I don't see the Named Destination panel that you mentioned. On the left there are icons for page thumbnails, bookmarks, attachments, and signatures.
I display the bookmarks panel and adjust the content of the bookmark labels as needed. With the right click menu, I use Set Destination to adjust the part of the page that displays at the top of the panel.
Now could you tell me exactly how this nameddest option works?
For example, I have a PDF file with "2: Introduction": as the bookmark that opens to the first page of chapter 2, which is on page 21. The link in the web page is:
<p>For an introduction, refer to <a href="docs/93-0967-0.pdf" target="_blank">chapter 2</a>
What do I need to do to make the link go to that chapter?
Yours,
Michael F

How do I re-sequence pages in a pdf file, which is in booklet format?

I have a pdf file which is an A5 booklet in duplex for-printing order, with two A5 pages printed on one A4 area. I want to re-sequence these pages to simple ascending page number order, for reading online. How do I do it?
The first A4 page of my pdf file consists of A5 page 1 on left and A5 page 48 on right, followed by the second A4 page consisting of A5 page 47 on left and A5 page 2 on right, and so on. [I can print this out OK as a booklet, except that the second A4 page, etc. is upside down.]
Do I need to take the crude, grunt approach and cut and paste each A5 page, one at a time, into a new document? I am using Acrobat XI Pro

You can reorder pages by dragging them to new positions in the Pages pane on the left.

I have Acrobat 11.0.10 and my "delete" icon is grayed out in the "pages" section so I cannot delete a page from a PDF file.... HELP! How do I change this?

Hi kevin,
Please let me know if this happens in all pdfs you open or any specific one.
Also, let me know your OS version.
You might check if the pdf is protected and could not be edited in any way.
Hope to hear from you.

How do I scan multiple pages into one pdf file using the PIXMA MG7520 on Windows 8.0? Please help!

I recently received a PIXMA MG7520 for a gift. It works great with my lenovo laptop/tablet running on Windos 8.0. The one drawback to the HP all-in-one that it replaced is it does not have an ADF. That being said, there must be some way to scan multiple pages into one pdf file. I need help figuring thing out. Thanks in advance!
Solved!

Hi mdtolbert54,
There is a program that comes with the printer called the IJ Scan Utility that can assist you with scanning multiple pages into a single PDF document. To do this, please follow these steps:
1. On your keyboard, press the Windows key.
2. Start typing IJ SCAN UTILITY. The search window opens as you type. Once the IJ SCAN UTILITY is displayed, please select and open it.
3. In the Canon IJ Scan Utility window that opens, click SETTINGS.... in the bottom right of the window. The Settings dialog box appears.
4. Click the DOCUMENT SCAN option on the left pane of the window.
5. In the SAVE SETTINGS section of the window, you will select the save format and location of the document you are about to scan.
a.) In the FILE NAME field, specify the name you would like to give the file. By default the filename will begin with IMG; you can remove IMG and change it to whatever you would like to name the file.
b.) In the DATA FORMAT field, use the drop-down arrow to select the PDF (Multiple Pages) option.
c.) In the SAVE IN field, please navigate to the area where you would like the file to be saved once it is scanned in. By default, the file will be saved in the MY DOCUMENTS folder.
6. Once all settings have been selected, click the OK button at the bottom of the window to save the changes. The IJ Scan Utility main screen appears.
7. Click the DOCUMENT button. Scanning starts. Click the CANCEL button to cancel scanning if needed. Scanned items are saved in previously selected folder location specified in the SETTINGS... window.
If you find that you need advanced scanning options such as adjusting resolution, brightness, contrast, saturation, color balance, etc. in addition to the options selected above, please click on the SCANGEAR button on the IJ Scan Utility Main screen, then adjust the items as necessary.
Once the items above are set for document scanning, in the future, you will only need to launch the IJ Scan Utility, then press the DOCUMENT button to perform the scan (unless you want to make changes to the settings).
Hope this helps!

Linking to Specific Page in Attached PDF File

I'm working with a main PDF file as well as an attached one. I'd like to create multiple links in my main file, with each one linking to a different page in the attached file. How could I go about doing this?

You can only do this if the attachment is a PDF file. Here are the help instructions that explain how to create a link in the main PDF document that jumps to the PDF attachment.

How do I print 2 pages from a pdf file and enlarge it

how do i print 2 pages from a file and enlarge it to email

Hi stevebulldog,
Do I understand correctly that you'd like to extract two pages from a PDF, and then send them via email?
To extract pages from a PDF, you need to use Acrobat. If you don't have Acrobat, you can try it for free for 30 days. Please see http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html.
I'm not sure what you mean by "enlarge" it. When your recipient views the PDF, they can enlarge the view (zoom in on the PDF) by choosing options from the View menu in Acrobat or Reader.
Best,
Sara

InDesign Link to specific page in a .pdf file

I have an article index that I keep in InDesign. Each item in the index points to a specific page in a separate .pdf file. Is there a way, in InDesign, to create a link that will open the .pdf file to a specific page? The InDesign file contains buttons and is exported to an interactive .pdf file. For example, I may have an article from volume one, page two. In the interactive index, I would like the user to be able to click on this link and open newsletter volume one and jump to page two. I have never found a way to do this in InDesign and currently have to create the text portion of the index in InDesign, export it to an interactive .pdf file and then create all of the links directly in Acrobat Professional. This is very time consuming because whenever I need to update the index, I need to re-export to a new interactive .pdf file and recreate ALL of the links in Acrobat. There should be a way to do this in InDesign.

There SHOULD be a way, yes. But there is none. It's not about Indesign, it's the PDF and handling of action like "Open file".
I tried button actions like "Open file" in Indesign, but you only select the file name and path, nothing else.
If you do the same in Acrobat, by putting an action "Open file" for a hyperlink, it will be the same.
The only thing that works is to use an URL like http://www.yourdomain.com/yourfile.pdf#page=3, where #page=3 can do what you want. You could even place that URL in Indesign or Acrobat, but the PDF would a) open in a browser and b) the PDF reader will always pop up that requester before opening internet links and c) the file would have to be on the internet.
Perhaps Acrobat Javascript could do more here, but then you'd have to embed it somehow in Acrobat (I wouldn't know if Indesign can do that) and Javascript would have to be allowed for that PDF. Not a good choice.

How can I insert a Pages, Doc, or PDF file into a Keynote presentation?

I need to insert a document (.pages, .doc, or .pdf anyone) into a Keynote for a portfolio that I must present. How can I do this? It doesn't give me that option under hyperlink in inspector.

the best is to insert screenshot directly in keynote. If it's for a paper version save everything as pdf and compile with "combine pdf".

How to convert a JSP page into a PDF file?

I am calculating and generating a bill in JSP?
I want the output JSP page from the server to get converted to a PDF file.
How to do this?
Please help me doing this!

Hai CeciNEstPasUnProgrammeur
Actually I didnt mean what you are asking?
I will put it in this way,
I am having a JSP output.
If I save that page in the browser it should get
saved as a PDF File,
This is my problem,As far as I can see, you have two options:
1) Ensure you have some kind of rendering tool installed on the server, render your JSP to that engine, capture the output as an image and transform the image to a PDF. Or a variation on that server-side theme.
2) Take the data you would be/are pushing into a JSP, offer a "download" facility that just takes that data and wraps it into a PDF. Your server then serves out that PDF file.
To save the browser view (your JSP) as a PDF each client machine would need to be set up with some mechanism to capture and save as PDF. You can't control that.
I've had to do something similar in the past. In that case though we had a simplar task of just generating a stored HTML file that we could store in the DB and lock down. Our approach was to use XSLT over the generated XML data structure.
I'd advise you doing the same and generating an XML file and then running an XSLT/FO process over it to generate your PDF file. Don't try to do all the fancy stuff on the client environment, that's an environment you usually have very little control over.

Move pages inside the PDF file

I am trying to relocate several pages inside the same PDF file. Some TIPs say I can do it by moving Page Thumbnails. However there is no Page Thumbnails pane on the left side of the document. There is no PAGE button either. There are 3 icon buttons on the left side, bookmark, signatures, and help. I am using Acrobat professional 8.0. Please help me find out the solution.
Thanks.

You have to open the thumbnail pane, "View => Naviagaiton tabs => Pages".
