I can't seem to get this done with pdfbox. There doesn't seem to be a way to
get the page number from the context of the named destination. Am I wrong?
Anyone got any sample code for working with named destinations?
If you have a look at the mentioned example you find some code like this:
PDDocumentOutline bookmarks=document.getDocumentCatalog().getDocumentOutline();
PDOutlineItem item = bookmarks.getFirstChild().getNextSibling();
And the PDOutlineItem class provides a method to get the corresponding page:
/**
* This method will attempt to find the page in this PDF document that this
outline points to.
* If the outline does not point to anything then this method will return null.
If the outline
* is an action that is not a GoTo action then this methods will throw the
OutlineNotLocationException
*
* @param doc The document to get the page from.
*
* @return The page that this outline will go to when activated or null if it
does not point to anything.
* @throws IOException If there is an error when trying to find the page.
*/
public PDPage findDestinationPage( PDDocument doc ) throws IOException
I didn't test it, but theoretically it looks like the piece of code you are
looking for.

Thanks. I do need to do that!
At the moment I'm trying to see if I can get the
GotoSecondBookmarkOnOpen.java sample has any clues... if PDOutlineItem
could refer to a named destination then I may be in business!

I haven't dealt with named destinations, but if you get get the object ID
of the page, you can look up the page number with doc.getPageMap(). If
you haven't already, I'd suggest tracing through a PDF with a hex editor
(or any good quality text editor will work fine) to find out how
everything is connected.

Subject:
getting page numbers of named destinations
Is it possible to, for a PDF, get the named destinations in it, and find
out
what page each is on? It doesn't look like it from my perusal of the
documentation, but I'm not sure. Seems like you can get the destination
names but that's about it.
