Hi John


I am trying to use named destinations to create a file f1.pdf with
a hyperlink to targets in another file f2.pdf. The hyperlink jumps
to the first page in f2.pdf. I found a message in another newsgroup
that said that this feature does not work for local PDF files; it works
only for PDFs served by a web server.

1) Is this true?

I haven't checked myself, but it seems possible...
That is: I cannot say off-hand whether fragment identifiers are also supposed to work in URIs using the file:// protocol.
I only know for certain that http:// supports them.

Anyone?

2) Is there a way to specify a relative path (current directory) with
file:// syntax? file:f2.pdf does not work. I get a message box saying:
"The file or folder smb://f2.pdf/#hello does not exist."
I have to write file:///path/to/f2.pdf, which would not be meaningful
on another computer.

Depending on the answer to my above question, you could try:

file://./f2.pdf#hello


HTH!

Cheers

Andreas
