Launching a PDF file to a certain page

Post by quailcreek » Tue May 05, 2015 5:03 am

Hi,
Is there a way to launch a pdf file and have it open on a desired page of the pdf? I have a pdf help file and I'd like to be able to control what page it opens on. I'm using screenSteps to build the pdf. Any thoughts?

So I'm guessing the thundering silence can be interpreted as a no then?

Anybody?

I'm thinking you right. I just set up separate pdf files and launch the one needed.
