This is a problem with local file links.
I have a large text document, from MS Word (actually done on a Mac with Nisus Writer, exported under Word 5 format into Word on Mac, then moved to a Windows platform, so far OK).
When distilled to Acrobat 5 it is about 1100 pages long. It is an OCR/edited/proofed copy of a public domain (1970's) Javanese-English dictionary. We are going to issue this on a CD-ROM along with the scanned images of the original.
The scanned images (JPG) are now in individual PDF documents with file names like "334.pdf" for page 334 of original, and in the text document the pages are marked with square brackets, e.g., "[334]".
What we want to do is make a link from that bracketed page reference text to the individual image files so a user who wants to see the original page while browsing/searching the OCR'd version can just click on the page reference number. No concern for web access need be given; this is an off-line research tool.
We've failed in all attempts to make MS Word add links through macros. We don't have complete documentation for a Java approach, but as far as we got there, we have no signs of imminent success.
Any tips, hints, 3rd party tools, or documents of any kind that can help us would be very much appreciated.
TIA,
