Wonderful! Hello Paulo - thank you for writing - and for being one of the authors of such a marvelously useful library. > This value is the page height to > position the view at the top.

Okay - so the value you chose was arbitrarily large, but otherwise has no significance. > Why -32768 would work better is a mystery to me. That's interesting. I wonder if anyone from Adobe is reading this, because they might be able to comment on it? To recap from my earlier posting:- If I generate a link to page 1 of an external PDF using iText, then in the Adobe reader, with a very few target files, I end up on the wrong page. With other readers I end up on the right page. I do not know what significant charateristics the offending target files have. If I export the links using the Evermap AutoBookmark plug-in for Adobe, delete all the links, and re-import them (using the same plug-in), then the problem disappears. Since the only difference between 'before' and 'after' is 10000 vs -32768, and this was (presumably) produced by the Adobe software, I guess Adobe have a reason for using -32768. What conditions would have to be met for iText to change the constant to -32768?
