Open a PDF to a specific page from command line

I want to open a locally stored PDF file to a specific page from the command line. I have seen examples of accessing web based files using http and the #page= parameter but this does not seem to work for a file stored on my local drive. I want to be able to use VBA from MS Access to control the opening page.

Hi cfwoodbury,
When opening a PDF document from a command shell, you can pass the parameters to the open command using the /A switch with the following syntax:
<Acrobat path> /A "<parameter>=<value>" "<PDF path>"
For example:
Acrobat.exe /A "zoom=1000" "C:\example.pdf"

How to add link to specific page in another PDF

I'd like to create a link within a PDF to a specific page in a different PDF. As far as I can tell, the Create Link tool will only allow me to open another PDF on page 1. I know you can link to another page in the current PDF, but I need to link to a separate PDF. I have also found info on mechanisms for opening to different pages, but these are for opening using browsers or code.
So, is it possible to link create a link in a PDF to a specific page in another PDF?
Thanks for any suggestions.
- John
PS - I'm using Adobe 7.0 Professional.

Try this...
You can link to a specific page in a specific PDF from a bookmark. You navigate to the new view (page of a PDF) when creating the bookmark.
When you want to do that with a link (as in selected text in the body of the PDF) you have to do it in two steps. Use any file open to create the link, then edit the properties of the link, select the Action tab, and change the action to Go To A Page View.
That's how it works in Acrobat 8, but I'm betting it's the same in 7.

How to extract specific pages from a PDF

Hello. I'm using Windows XP Pro on a custom PC with Adobe Acrobat 8.0. I work for a small magazine (abqarts.com) that publishes its online version in PDF format which is created by our production dept. I need to extract specific pages from the magazien as PDFs to send to a client. Tried to look up how in the Help file but I think the termonology is defeating me.
I can load the magazine's PDF into Acrobat, but can't manage to save, print or export two pages and the cover as individual PDF files. I'd sure appreciate some help.
Thanks,
Peggy

Graffiti, thanks for your quick response! When you say "open the pages view" that's the drop-down View menu, right? Then I select Page Display but don't know which one to chose after that. Single, two-up etc.
And Control>click on a page selects an image on that page--not the entire page, which is what I want.
That said, I'm way happy you pointed out Document>Extract Pages. That works great for me, one page at a time. Maybe I don't need the other things clarified because I can use this one, but I'd like to get working all the tips you provided.
Gratefully,
Peggy

Is Acrobat Pro right for us. We have an Employee Handbook that needs editing. Some is current pdf, some from an older version. Want to get all into one handbook, have the table of contents automatically adjust and link to specific pages from the ToC.

You can download the trial version (http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-downloads.html) to convert the PDF back to WORD if you do not have the original. The conversion may not be perfect, but it is typically better than starting from scratch. You may be lucky and get a good result. You might check the settings (in the save screen) to try retain format versus retain text flow. The format version can be a pain to edit since it creates a bunch of text boxes. The flow version may require you to reformat in WORD, but you likely would want to do that anyway.

Use XMLP to pull only specific pages from larger PDF template?

We need to be able to pull specific pages or a range of pages out of a larger template to use to merge data into and return to users or the selected delivery method. I've seen a lot of information about how to add page numbers to PDF templates / documents, but nothing about how I can pull out specific pages. We know this can be done using iText or some other technology, but does anyone know if this can be done using XML Publisher at all? This is a big issue for us and could determine whether we end up using XMLP at all or go with something else. Any info would be helpful.
Thanks!

Hi
Publisher is not currently capable of pulling out specific pages from a given PDF,.

How to access a page from another website in to the portlet

Hai,
I need this specific requirement. In a portlet that is written in jsp, i need to access another page which is running in another server.I will explain what is my requirement clearly.. In a portlet, i have to acess a page from another site, and i have to pass a parameter directly. If i use URL-Based Portlet with passing parameters, It ask the user to enter the parameter and submit the page.. But what my need is, i have to pass the parameter directly. what i am planning is in a new tab, i will add a portlet, where i need to access the another website page..when the user opens that tab, it directly shows that website..... How do i proceed...
Can anybody help me.. Its URGENT....
If possible send me the code..
my mail id: [email protected]
Thanks in advance
damodar

Damodar,
To include an existing JSP page as a portlet have a look in the PDK section http://portalcenter.oracle.com there is lots useful information. The two things you might find most relevant is a paper on creating java portlets. This paper has a section on turning an existing JSP page into a portlet
http://portalstudio.oracle.com/pls/ops/docs/FOLDER/COMMUNITY/PDK/ARTICLES/HOW.TO.BUILD.A.JAVA.PORTLET.USING.PDK.JAVA.V2.HTML
and to pass parameters and events
http://portalstudio.oracle.com/pls/ops/docs/FOLDER/COMMUNITY/PDK/ARTICLES/OVERVIEW.PARAMETERS.EVENTS.HTML
Hope this helps,

When I click my home page icon the tab this is open goes to my home page BUT another new tab opens.

when I click my home page icon the tab that is open goes to my home page BUT another new tab opens. How do I stop the new tab from appearing?

It's easy to add extra tabs to your set of home pages. You can use the Options dialog to make sure there is only one. These articles point the way:
* [[Startup, home page and download settings]]
* [[How to set the home page]]
Because the space is short, you may want to select the whole home page URL (Ctrl+A) and paste it into a document or into a larger textbox like the one I'm typing in now. You're looking for a vertical bar (|) that is followed by a second URL.
If it's not part of your home page setting, the most likely cause for this change is a bad add-on that rode along with some free software.
I suggest starting here:
Open Windows Control Panel, Uninstall a Program. Click the "Installed on" column heading to group the infections, I mean, additions, by date. This can help in smoking out undisclosed bundle items that snuck in with some software you agreed to install. Take out as much trash as possible here.
Then, in Firefox, open the Add-ons page using either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable (or Remove, if possible).
Often a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
Does that shut down the extra tab?

Insert Pages From another File?

HI Everyone,
Is there a way I can insert entire pages from one file into another?
I'm working on a document and need several pages from another file - is there a way I can import or insert?
Cheers
Darryn

Open your files & show thumbnails. Sections have a yellow border around all of the pages in that section. Now click on the page in the thumbnail pane & copy. If the file is more than one page & you only want one, you'll need to insert a section break to separate the pages. Then go to your other file, click in the thumbnail pane & paste. The whole copied page will be pasted in. Repeat with another section. Styles will copy over with the sections but headers & footers will not.

Include a page from another context in a facelet

Hi,
I'd like to know how to include a facelet page from another context using JSF. Something similar was done for JSPs in this thread
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=451823&messageID=2053784
I'm using <ui:include > in the facelet and tomcat 5.5, but I'm not sure if I should use the FaceletContext -> ServletContext -> RequestDispatcher, etc. and in what way in the facelet.
thanks!

That only appears to work within the same context, i.e., if I have two contexts:
webapps/context1
webapps/context2
and the original facelet is in context1, I cannot ui:include a facelet from context2. Doesn't work.

Problem while opening a link of a PDF that points to a specific page to another PDF

PDF links whose URIs include backslashes are interpreted by Acrobat Reader browser plug-in as local file-system links even when they are not. This means that a link that points to a specific page number will open the file but not automatically jump to the desired page . In our browser-based viewing tool, this means that the links are perceived as not working.
for example : from IE Browser When we tried to open the link in PDF 1 which has the URL of the 5th section of PDF2 and the URL includes the backslashes then the Specific section of PDF2 is not getting opened . The link just opens the PDF2 first page. This Specific problem does not arrives if we try to open the link through Adobe Reader or if the URL mentioned in the PDF is formed using forwordslashes instead of backslashes.

You have not.

Opening a PDF in a specific page from a PDF created in indesign

Hello, I'm working with CS4 and I need you to click on a button, or from a "hyperlink" in a text, open a pdf file but for a given page.
I can not change the target pdf and also I have to access a single pdf into multiple pages, put an example
persone one speaks at the pdf 1, on page 14
person two speaking in pdf 1, on page 15
I wish that when you click on the person 1 opens pdf 1 on page 14, and when you click on the person 2 opens pdf 1 on page 15
Thanks in advance
mateo

Thanks, I had not noticed in the new dialogue coming out. Thank you very much. A greeting.
Muchas gracias
mateo
Rectification
ohhh, no, the page references are to an indesign document, not a PDF
I have not indesign files where you created the PDF to which I have to jump and I can not add bookmarks to pdf, pdf files are protected.
thanks

Is it possible to open an folio at a specific page from external link using URL scheme?

We want to link into a folio from another app we are creating. We can open the Viewer app with the URL scheme we define in the app (e.g. com.name.app ). However this always opens the app on the home screen.
Ideally we'd like to link into a specific folio or even page within the folio. Is this possible by using some sort of querystring/identifier/anchor on the end of the URL scheme?

Yes, its possible but officially not supported and is not fully tested. Check DPS Tips App by Bob Bringhurst (https://itunes.apple.com/in/app/digital-publishing-suite-tips/id436199090?mt=8)
Download the Advanced Overlay folio and check "Buttons & Linking" - Slide 2
