Thanks to all for the replies. Adam, you set me onto something. Thanks for that link. I also didn't know I could open the pdf in a text editor! One thing that sticks out to me when I open the document in notepad is that my "Count" fields have negative integers assigned to them, which is a direct violation of the spec. I am not sure why this would be. I will go back and look at my code. I have pasted a typical entry below. If anyone else sees any red flags, I would appreciate any tips.
<< /Title (BID) /Parent 381 0 R /First 885 0 R /Count -5 /Last 886 0 R /Dest [27 0 R /FitH null] /Next 809 0 R >> Looking back through my document I have generated, there may also be some errors in the page some of the parents point to. That is, they point to pages after the children. Once again, I need to look at my code. Andreas, The problem I have when using the Repligo viewer is that there are NO bookmarks in the menu. When I ask it to show me the document's bookmarks, nothing comes up - as in the list is not populated. --- On Fri, 6/12/09, Sudarsan, Sithu D. <sithu.sudar...@fda.hhs.gov> wrote: > From: Sudarsan, Sithu D. <sithu.sudar...@fda.hhs.gov> > Subject: RE: Bookmarks and Repligo Reader (Blackberry PDF application) > To: pdfbox-users@incubator.apache.org, jmba...@yahoo.com > Date: Friday, June 12, 2009, 10:20 AM > > Few questions: > 1.
