Hi all!
My company is producing some software. In addition to the help files for
the software, they want users to be able to jump directly from the
software to a bookmark in a pdf file. (So that the user can jump
directly to the relevant section of one of many manuals configured as
pdf files.)
Does anybody know:
* is it at all possible to link from an outside application (e.g.
another software application using DLLs or active x controls) to a
bookmark in a pdf file?
* how would one do this?
