Link to page in pdf file

I working in Flash CS3 and I am creating an interactive CD. I
would like to be able to link from Flash to a specific page in a
pdf file that is stored locally. From what I understand, it can't
be done. I was wondering if anybody had a work around.

if you are trying to get to page 2 of the pdf use:
getURL("myPDF.pdf?#page=2")

Link to page within PDF file.

Hi all,
We have some large PDFs that we currently store on an apache server. Because of the number of pages (over 33,000) we created sort of an index page using html that users could quickly search in and then select a name that is a link to the correct page in the PDF. This worked like a charm. We are working to move the old website that was on the apache server into Vibe. I haven't been able to get the setup we have for the large PDFs to transfer into Vibe as the PDF will open using the permalink, but the PDF just opens to its first page. Following is an example of the link from the apache server.
http://www/Notices/2012/MVCTax201205....PDF#page=1905
We just took the permalink and added the #page=1905 to it. As indicated, it opens the PDF, but only to the first page.
Does anyone know of some way to make this work, or is it likely to be impossible within the constraints of Vibe? I would really like to just be able to search the PDF using Vibe's indexing, but it appears either size or format is an issue. Any other thoughts on how this could be accomplished would be appreciated as well.
Thanks, Don.

Thanks for your response Erik. I think I had already increased these, but I need to confirm as I may have missed something.

I can't help you at the moment regarding your "PDF#page" problem.
But increasing the max size of a document's index and the number of
words and terms to be indexed per document is well documented. You just
have to find the section in the docs ;-)
Here we are: '4.12.4 Increasing the Number of Words That Are Indexed
for Each Document'
(http://www.novell.com/documentation/...c.html#bxirext)
You should adapt your settings for lucene.max.fieldlength,
doc.conversion.size.threshold and
doc.max.text.extraction.size.threshold. I can't tell which settings
might fit in your case as you are using extraordinary large documents.
Just give it a try ;-)

Printing web page to pdf file using Acrobat Standard 9

When I print a web page to a pdf file, the text in the file is mostly garbled. I have no problems in creating pdf files from MS office or other software. I have Windows 7 Home.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

I do have Internet Explorer 9 and I was able to print web pages correctly following your suggestions.
Thanks for your help.

There were problems with IE9 on it's initial release and that may be what you are seeing if that is the browser (you did not indicate the browser and that may be a key). If you have a different browser you might try that one with the same pages to see if it browser related.
By saying garbled it sounds like the fonts did not make it or you have selected "Use Local Fonts" in Acrobat. Try checking the latter first. Then check if the fonts are embedded in the PDF by checking the document properties (ctrl-D). If they are not, go back to the browser and select the press or print job options before printing and see if they get embedded and if your problem is resolved.

The problem with the FM 'CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF' is when my spool have more than 99 pages. In this case, the FM generate a backscreen job (sm37) to convert my spool and generate a binary PDF spool.
After this step, the 'FM SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1' send an e-mail with the binary PDF File recovered in the spool list but i can't open the file with Adobe Reader because the format is wrong.
Someone knows how could i convert my big spool list to PDF file to send it by e-mail adress ?
Thanks a lot for your precious help that i need so much !

I recently signed up for a one month trial of adobe pro. I logged in. I cannot convert a single page of PDF file to word or Excel with this trial. I just get the request to sign up for a year. What good is the trial if I can't try it?

Hey vcomfort6,
Please ensure that you are using Adobe Acrobat and not Reader to convert PDF file to word or excel.
Could you tell me whether it is a scanned document? Does this happen with all PDFs or any specific one?
Do you get any error message? What exactly happens when you try doing the same?
Hope to hear from you.

I like to edit single letter in the pdf file having more then 1000 page, Example "T" in place of "V" in all the 1000 pages in pdf file. Please let me know

I like to edit single letter in the pdf file having more then 1000 page, Example "T" in place of "V" in all the 1000 pages in pdf file. Please let me know !

In a PDF you can´t change single letter.
You can only try to convert the PDF document into a Word document.
Now you can search and replace a letter.

Linking dynamically to a pdf file from Crystal

I have a Crystal report in which I need to embed a link to a .PDF file I pass the year and zone into the report which I then need to use to dynamically link to the proper .pdf file within Crystal. I tried adding an OLE object and selecting .PDF but I need this link to be dynamic to attach the correct .pdf, not static. Is that possible?If yes then could you please let me know how to do it.
Thanks
Mohan Koduru

Depending on the version of CR... with 11.5 and higher, search the help file for:

Don't think so. If it is it would be in the metadata for the PDF -- ctrl D and select the left most tab. There should be a button for additional data if you want to explore.

You need run OCR first using Acrobat, then you should be able to highlight text.

Print web page to PDF file with live links in PDF file like Apple Safari's pdf prints?

With Firefox for Macintosh, can I print a web page to PDF in such a manner that when I option the PDF file and click on a link, it is a live link that opens in my system's default web browser?
With Apple Safari, when I print a web page to a PDF file, the links on that page are "live" and work to open the web browser to their destination. The PDF files I get from Firefox are dead. Clicking on link does not open in browser.
Is there a way to get FireFox to act more like Safari in this regard?
Thanks

Seems the referenced thread is about Lion. I am having this problem in Snow Leopard 10.6.5 with Firefox. Any way to get PDFs with working links in Snow Leopard using FIrefox? I do not really want to have to use Safari for this purpose.
Going forward when and under what circumstances will future versions of Firefox be able to create PDFs with live links? Are there any circumstances where a current or past version of Firefox can do it under any current or past version of OS X?
Thanks.

Clicking a .pdf link does not open .pdf file, it opens a SAVE DIALOG box

Recently when I click on a .pdf file link I am no longer able to open the file in a adobe reader either within a FIREFOX webpage or open it using the full adobe program. Instead it opens a SAVE dialog box requesting me to save to my harddrive. I am not sure what has happened and am trying to find someone who might know what is going on?

You can change the action for Portable Document Format (PDF) from Preview in Firefox to use the Adobe Reader or set to Always Ask in "Firefox > Options/Preferences > Applications".
You can set the pdfjs.disabled pref to true on the <b>about:config</b> page to disable the build-in PDF viewer.
You can check the value of the plugin.disable_full_page_plugin_for_types pref on the about:config page and remove the application/pdf part if present or reset the pref to the default via the right-click context menu.

How do you create a link to download a PDF file?

I'd like to create links so that when clicked, a PDF file associated with the link will automatically be downloaded. I've created a folder where I've stored all of the PDF files, but where on my web host do I put the folder--is it part of the published iWeb folder or should it be kept separate? (I'm using a 3rd party web host, Lunarpages.com)
Second, to create the links, I've written "Download Page" on for each link, highlighted the words, then enabled it as a hyperlink with the inspector. However, this changes "Download Page" to the name of the PDF file. How can I keep the words "Download Page" without changing it to the name of the file? Also, is this the correct way to have a PDF file automatically downloaded when "Download Page" is clicked?
Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Hi there,
While I do not use iWeb, I do use PDF files on my website.
I first create a new folder to hold my PDF files and upload this to my website. When I create and upload PDF files I will upload to this folder. When someone wants to view this files, all they need to do is click on the link I created. After clicking on link, if the user is on a PC, Acrobat Reader is automatically used to view the file or if they are on a Mac, Preview is usually the default viewer (if the they are using Safari, it will simply open in Safari). Just having the extension on yourfile.pdf will cause this and you will not need to do anything else on your end.
FOR EXAMPLE: Download Sample PDF - try it on different browsers and PC's
As far as 'download page', it automatically starts as soon as you click on link. If you are talking about 'saving' the user will always have that option on their end...

HTML link to bookmark in pdf file

Hi everyone,
I use the following suffix on an html link in order to link to a specific page within a pdf file: #page=15 This works but I need to know go one step further and link to a specific bookmark within the pdf. I use the following suffix to try to do this: #bookmark name The above syntax doesn't work because the bookmarks all have spaces in their names. Apparently it's supposed to work if I remove the spaces from the bookmark names but this isn't practical because I'm generating the pdf out of Indesign and the bookmarks in the resulting pdf are just a reflection of the table of contents in Indesign. I can't remove the spaces from the TOC entries just so that there's no spaces in the bookmarks in the pdf.
So I need some sort of workaround and wondered if anyone would have any suggestions. Is there some acrobat script or any other solution to this problem?
Really appreciate any help.

Try %20 instead of spaces. HTML links are URL-encoded, and this is the usual translation of a single space, as for example can be seen in links in Google.
If it works, you can automatically convert the bookmark name to URL format with the function encodeURI ("Every non-alphanumeric character is encoded as a percent escape").

RE: Bookmarking; can you link to an external pdf file?

Hi, I apologize in advance if this question is stupid; I am very new to using Adobe Acrobat 7 and have not had any training using it, much less creating documents, extracting, linking, etc.
My employer creates PDF files of different documents, then wants to compile them into one new PDF file by extracting the information out of the individual PDF's and bookmark the information imported from each file.
The problem I'm running into is that some of the files are "protected" and I can only view or print them, I am unable to extract pages or copy from them.
It seems the only solution would be to make a bookmark that references the external "protected" pdf file from within the new compiled PDF, but I don't know how to do it.
Also, if anyone has a better solution, suggestion or advice for a better way to build these types of documents, I would be very appreciative of any help!
Thanks!

Thanks, George!
I really appreciate everyone's help with this!
(It's helping to keep me employed)
You guys are really nice folks!
