When I create the outline and bookmark the way you suggest, actually
hard-coding the value 1 in gotoLocalPage, the bookmarks all go to the
very top of page 2. Is this a problem with the PDF reader (Adobe
Reader 7.0.8 on win32)?
Debugging shows that the PdfAction's hashMap member has value "{/D=[1
0 R, /XYZ, 0, 0, 0], /S=/GoTo}"... I can't read PDF, so I don't know
if this is correct.
Actually, it looks like there might be an off-by-one error somewhere
along the line. Debug printing says that I'm linking to pages 2, 4, 8,
etc, and in Adobe Reader when I click the outline bookmarks, they go
to the right place (except the first), and display the number that was
debug printed. However, the actual page number that it goes to is one
greater than what Adobe reader shows -- if you drag the window ever so
slightly it refreshes its page number display to show 3, 5, 9, etc.
Even more curious, the second time you click on a bookmark, it shows
the correct page number in the display (3, 5, 9, etc), but goes to the
same place as the last time you clicked it. The first bookmark is
still incorrect -- it goes to the second page in the PDF.
I'm sorry to be such a pain about this, I just feel like there's
something subtle going on that someone more familiar with PDF might be
able to diagnose.
Thanks,
