Hi Miguel - thanks for your comments and interest. Today I am able
to give a more worthy response.

Hi,
I patched your code in, compiled and voilà, the nice red
boxes are there around my links. Alas, clicking does nothing but
highlight them. Maybe we have different Ghostscript versions?
Maybe your link target is on the same page?
Otherwise I have ghostscript 9.01 and use ps2pdf to make the PDF
which I view with evince, but Foxit PDF reader also works.
What pdf viewer are you using?
You don't need to know the number of the page you are jumping to.

Defining Named Destinations
Locations in PDF files can be specified by name instead of by page
number and view. These
names can then be used as destinations of bookmarks or links.
Using named destinations is
particularly advantageous for cross-document links, because if the
document containing a
link’s destination is revised, the link will still work,
regardless of whether its location in the
file has changed.
A named destination is specified by using the pdfmark operator in
conjunction with the
name DEST. The syntax for a named destination pdfmark is:
[ /Dest name
/Page pagenum
/View destination
/DEST pdfmark
Dest name (Required) The destination’s name.
Page integer (Optional) The sequence number of the destination
page. If present,
the named destination pdfmark may be placed anywhere
in the
PostScript language file. If omitted, the pdfmark
must occur within
the PostScript language description for the
destination page.
View array (Optional) The view to display on the destination page.
If omitted,
defaults to a null destination (lower left corner of the
page at a
zoom of 100%). See “Destinations” on page 44 for
information on
specifying a view destination.
As for the view, on page 45:
View
array
Specifies a link or bookmark’s destination on a page, and its fit
type.
The first array entry is one of the fit type names shown in Table
3.5. The
remaining entries, if any, specify the location as either a
rectangle, a
point, or an x– or y–coordinate, depending on the fit type.
we use XYZ with NULL as zoom so as not to change the zoom the user
already has:
XYZ left top zoom
left and top specify the distance from the origin of the page
to the top-left
corner of the window. zoom specifies the zoom factor, with 1
being 100%
magnification. If left, top or zoom is NULL, the current value of
that parameter is
retained. For example, specifying a view destination of
/View [/XYZ NULL NULL NULL]
goes to the specified page and retain the same horizontal and
vertical offset
and zoom as the current page. A zoom of 0 has the same meaning as
a zoom of
NULL.
Now left and top are the position of the rect being rendered at the
label; here is a sample from one of my files:
[ /Dest(#footnr-2) cvn /View [/XYZ 363 2948 null] /DEST pdfmark
and here is the link to it:
[ /Dest(#footnote-2) cvn /Rect [ 363 2924 393 2887 ]
/Border [16 16 1 [3 10]] /Color [1 0 0] /Subtype /Link /ANN pdfmark
Please could you try this PDF and see if it works for you:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/fangle.git/plain/fangle.pdf
GOOD NEWS - I note that links from the table-of-contents DO jump to
the right part of the page! If the TOC entry is to a new section -
that has the page-number at the bottom of the page instead of the
top of the page, then I notice that evince takes me to the bottom of
the page. If the TOC entry is to a subsection and the page number is
shown at the top of the page, then evince takes me to the top of the
page.
To see, try:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/fangle.git/plain/fangle.pdf and in
the contents, click on "4 Using Fangle with Lyx ... 17" - it goes to
the bottom of the page where the page 17 is. Then try "4.4
configuring the build script ... 19" and see that it goes to the top
of the page. In both cases where the page number is printed.
In the .ps, the destination for configuring the build script is:
[ /Dest(#auto-18) cvn /View [/XYZ 108 4144 null] /DEST pdfmark
and the toc link is:
[ /Dest(#auto-18) cvn /Rect [ 3568 3296 3651 3243 ]
/Border [16 16 1 [3 10]] /Color [1 0 0] /Subtype /Link /ANN pdfmark
Hopefully that gives me enough clue to work out the problem why it
doesn't position properly for other links.
But I'm very interested in your links not working at all, and would
like to see the .ps and .pdf (and .tm file).
Sam

Dear Sam,
I just tested your patch, and it's indeed pretty close
to be working
perfectly. Like you said, the only frustrating part is
that the pdf reader
doesn't jump exactly at the link, but nearby. Not always
at the top of the
page by the way: some times in the middle, at the
bottom, occasionnally
close to the dest but on the next page... It seems that
the numbers for the
dest rect are off, for some reason. I guess you have
already tried to
understand this wierdness.
As far as I can test, the latex hyperlink stuff displays the
same behavior so I don't know if there is a solution.
Sam
