Tilman,

Thank you very much. (I feel bad asking some of the questions, but the data
is stored in "out of the way" corners that are hard to find.

Don't :-)


Is there any documentation that explains how the linkages work? Would it
help to have the PDF Standard Document?


Yes. I read there all the time. The PDFBox API closely follows the PDF specification. So here it's linked from the document catalog, so the methods used are in the PDDocumentCatalog class. But asking was a good decision as this got you that convenience method (that is in PDFDebugger).

Thanks.

I've now got my code working to iterate through a PDDocument and process
it
page by page.

Next hurdle: Is there a way to get the page number as printed? I've got
page numbers like "TOC-1", "TOC-2", "Page 1", ...

How much work is it to get the "TOC-1"?

Thanks.
