How to open PDF file in new window as default

I have .pdf documents into which I have inserted links to other .pdf documents using pdfEdit995
(I am a 77-year-old pensioner recording monumental inscriptions, not very computer literate and not able to afford expensive applications !) 
The links in the temp.ps file (which pdf995 creates first) look like :-
[ /Rect [85 225 107 228]
/Border [ 0 0 0 ]
/Action /Launch /File (.\\Another Folder\\TARGET FILE.PDF)
/Subtype /Link
/ANN pdfmark
The links work fine, but open in the same window, which is annoying as it is then neccessry to re-open the original document, scroll down to the required page and find the next link.
pdf995 support say that perhaps Adobe reader can be set to open in a new window, but I want this to be the default when I circulate my file to interested people, so would prefer to modify the links.
Can anyone help with a smple solution ? (I also believe in Santa Claus !)
System: Vista; Reader X 10.1.0

I don't know if you can change this in the PS file, but if you had Acrobat you could embed the following code into your file, that will make sure the links open in a new window. However, you should be aware that this code will change the preferences at the application level, which some people might not appreciate.
The code is:
app.openInPlace = false;

  • Link to open pdf file in new window

    I want to create a link on a web page to open a pdf file in a
    new window. I used the "on click" "open brower window". Which does
    open the pdf file, but not in a new window. How do I open it in a
    new window?

    Your code is a mess:
    ** there is no apparent reason for the span:
    <td><span class="style1"
    onfocus="MM_openBrWindow('pdf/PR_launch.pdf','','')">Milford, OH
    So change that line to:
    <td>Milford, OH
    ** here you have two double quotes before This.
    <a title="”This" class="pdfFile"
    onclick="MM_openBrWindow('pdf/PR_Launch.pdf','','')"
    Change it to this, (with some other improvements):
    <a title="This" class="pdfFile"
    onclick="MM_openBrWindow(this.href,'','');return false"
    ** This is code salad:
    href="”PR_Launch.pdf”" link="" will="" open="" a=""
    .pdf=""
    file.”="">More (PR_Launch.pdf,
    230kb)</a></span></td>
    Change it to:
    href="pdf/PR_Launch.pdf">More (PR_Launch.pdf,

  • Please help to open PDF file in new window

    Hi!
    I have a My.pdf file, and file Other.pdf located in subfolder Myfolder.
    For example, my.pdf located on c:\Mydocs\My.pdf and Other.pdf located in c:\mydoc\Myfolder\Other.pdf
    I try make plugin that open Other.pdf in subfolder Myfolder, no matter in where My.pdf is located on computer.
    I found in SDK API, that I need create a new window for open pdf file, using WinAPI function - CreateWindow:
    HWND externHWnd = CreateWindow ("ExternalWindow", "PDFViewer",WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW,50, 50, 500, 500, 0, 0, gHINSTANCE, NULL);
    I copy example into Visual Studio, but in example there no gHINSTANCE is undeclared.
    or plese provide working code for my task
    Please help

    In which part of the SDK did you look.
    Do you really mean a plugin (control Acobat from inside - can only be written using C#)
    oder do you mean control/work with Acrobat from an external application (like vb,..) via activeX (=IAC).

  • Safari 3.0.3 won't open PDF files in new window & won't download to desktop

    When I click on a PDF file at a website Safari opens a new browser window but the window is always blank. The PDF file never appears. When I try to download the file to the desktop (right click) it doesn't download. I've read everything about the PDF problem posted at any relevant forum here. I've tried the Quicktime MIME approach. Didn't work. I've disabled the "open PDF in browser" option in Adobe Reader. Didn't work. I've looked for the Adobe plug-in to relocate. Didn't work. I downloaded Adobe Reader 8. Didn't work. When I make Adobe the default rather than Preview, Safari still doesn't open the PDF files or download them. Is there anyone in the computing world who actually can fix this problem? And why hasn't this recurring problem that has affected so many others been escalated to Apple for resolution???!!!

    Installing the newest version of Adobe Reader and restarting Safari fixed this issue for me.

  • Open a generated pdf file in new window

    Dear all,
    I'm using JDev ADF 11.1.1.4.0
    I use the command button method to generate pdf file with JasperReports and I store it into the public folder /reports/test5.pdf. To open this file I can use goLink or goButton with target frame _blank, but how can I open this file automatically after generation?
    I was reading about fileDownloadActionListener, but it's not what I need, I just want to open the file in new window browser.
    Any help will be appreciated.

  • Open PDF's in new window in document library when using "Find a file" search

    I need to be able to open PDF's in a new window from a document library when using the "Find a file" search built into the document library "All documents" view. I currently have the following javascript on the page:
    _spBodyOnLoadFunctionNames.push("setTargetBlank()");
    function setTargetBlank()
    { $("a[href$='.pdf']").removeAttr('onclick').attr("target", "_blank");
    This works great when going to the document library and navigating through the folders then clicking on a link.
    The problem is when someone goes to the document library then uses the "Find a file" search and then they click on a link. The "Find a file" search does not do a postback (reload) of the page, therefore my javascript to find the PDF links
    and make them open in a new window does not run for the links on the page.
    I have read the following article but this does not seem to offer a solution that will work in this situation for SharePoint 2013 (Office 365): http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/7ad3224c-3165-47ae-95bc-4f3928e2f9a8/opening-document-library-pdf-in-a-new-window-sharepoint-2013?forum=sharepointgeneral
    I suppose the idea solution would be to somehow tap into the event that is fired when using "Find a file" search to run my javascript and update the links for the search results.
    Can anyone offer any solutions to this issue?

    Hi,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to open PDF files in a new window from a document library when using the "Find a file" search.
    As you said, the "Find a file" search does not do a postback (reload) of the page, therefore JavaScript to find the PDF links and make them open in a new window does not run for the links on the page.
    I recommend to use JS link to achieve the goal. Create a JavaScript override file and upload the JavaScript file to the Master Page Gallery, and then set the JS Link property of the document library web part to point to the JavaScript file.
    Here are some links about the JS link in SharePoint 2013 for you to take a look:

  • How to open pdf files in browser using flex

    hi,
    my project is having a Document explorer wchich contains pdf
    files,iwant to open it in the browser.can any one tell me how to
    open pdf documents using flex programming(i tried with different
    thing like swf's but my client wants only pdf formatt).

    Another option is by calling a JSP page. This example will
    open a pdf file into a new browser without displaying the download
    "save" prompt.
    Function to call the JSP:
    private function downloadFlyer(event:Event):void {
    var jspLink:URLRequest = new
    URLRequest("jsp/downloadpdf.jsp?fileName=Fundraiser_flyer_2008.pdf");
    navigateToURL( jspLink, "_blank" );
    JSP code:
    <%@ page errorPage="error.jsp" %>
    <%@ page import="java.io.*" %>
    <%
    //Get the parameters
    String downloadFileName=request.getParameter("fileName");
    String fileName = application.getRealPath("/downloads/" +
    downloadFileName);
    File file = new File(fileName);
    if (!file.exists()) {
    throw new IOException("File does not exist.");
    // Get the size of the file
    long length = file.length();
    // You cannot create an array using a long type.
    // It needs to be an int type.
    // Before converting to an int type, check
    // to ensure that file is not larger than Integer.MAX_VALUE.
    if (length > Integer.MAX_VALUE) {
    throw new IOException("File too big.");
    response.reset();
    response.resetBuffer();
    response.setContentType( "application/pdf" );
    response.setHeader ("Content-Disposition", "filename=" +
    downloadFileName);
    //Prevent the Java error: "getOutputStream() has already
    been called for this response"
    out.clear();
    out = pageContext.pushBody();
    InputStream in = new FileInputStream(file);
    OutputStream output = response.getOutputStream();
    try {
    int curByte=-1;
    while( (curByte=in.read()) !=-1){
    output.write(curByte);
    } catch (IOException ioe) {
    ioe.printStackTrace(System.out);
    } finally{
    output.flush();
    in.close();
    response.flushBuffer();

  • How to Open PDF Files Embedded in an Excel File

    This is a solution for Mac users who need to open .PDF files that are embedded inside an Excel file created in Office for Windows.
    I hope this solution works for other file format combinations. I am doing some experimentation to find out and will repost if I have new learnings.
    Problem:
    - Colleague sends me a .XLS which has an embedded .PDF on one sheet
    - Office: Mac 2011 will not open the .PDF because of lack of OLE support
    Solution:
    - Copy the .XLS file to a new file
    - Rename the file from <filename.xls> to <filename.zip>
    - Open the .ZIP with Archive Utility
    - Browse into the resulting "decompressed" folder to filename > xl > embeddings
    - Find the file of interest, named something like <oleObject2.bin>
    - Rename to <oleObject.pdf>
    VOILA!
    The PDF is recovered in its fully glory.

    Okay, so where are you publishing your site to - MobileMe or an external server such as GoDaddy?
    If to GoDaddy, then to upload directly to the server, as I explained in my previous post, then you would need to use Cyberduck and upload your pdf file to your public_html file or whichever file you need to upload to - it could also be 'www', or 'htdocs'.  Upload your pdf file here and then go back to iWeb and create the link to your pdf file by linking to it directly on the server - don't hyperlink to a file, but to your external server, which will be http://www.domain.com/name of your pdf file.pdf.  This is all you need do and then select open in a new page and your link to your document has been created.
    If publishing to MobileMe, then you need to upload the pdf file directly to your iDisk.  You would then make the link to the url http://web.me.com/username/sitename/name of pdf file.pdf and select to open in a new page.
    That is what is meant by uploading to a server and you then have to create the link directly to where your file has been uploaded to and not the file itself.  You need to enter the external url which will be your domain name or your MobileMe url, plus the username and site name.
