HELP with link to specific page in a pdf
how on earth in 2003 or 2007 do I create a hyperlink from my Word document to
a specific page in a PDF? I have it linked to the PDF but can't get it to a specific page. I looked on line and from what I can see it says to add #page= and then the page number. I'm not sure where in the link to add it but where ever I have put it, it does nothing. Thank you. |

HELP with link to specific page in a pdf
Using #page= only works for sure if your pdf is on a webserver. That is, if
your link starts with http:// or https:// . In case of file:// links (local ones) it depends on a number of aspects which you most likely can not control for your users. A solution which will always work is the use of named destinations. However, that implies editing your pdf file. For more information on this topic, just do a google search.

HELP with link to specific page in a pdf
We tried converting the word and/or the PDF to html and it still did not
work. I've been googling the hell out of it for over 12 hours now. "Yves Dhondt" wrote: Using #page= only works for sure if your pdf is on a webserver.

HELP with link to specific page in a pdf
I don't understand why you would switch to html, unless you have no means to
edit your pdf. Anyway, html doesn't know the concept of pages, so if you would try to convert your pdf to a html, you would have to provide an anchor to mark a place in your html document you want your Word document to point to. So in your html code, you would have something looking like: a name="placeInMyHTML"text to point toa And in your Word document, you would have a link to http://www.someplace.com/myfile.htm#placeInMyHTML Yves "Kim" wrote in message ...
