hyperlink to page in PDF

Can I create a hyperlink to a specific section (page) in a PDF doc?

I know how to hyperlink to a bookmark in another Word doc but this doesn't seem to work for PDF

Any thoughts? Is this possible?

Do you mean to do this in Word documents that will be converted to PDF and
the Word Hyperlinks should then be converted to PDF hyperlinks as well?
If so, it is quite complex as you have to use PRINT fields with PDFMarks...

or

have a look at Jonathan West's site
http://www.multilinker.com

If that fails, repost in the word.vba.general group and Jonathan will surely
pick up the thread.

Thanks for the quick reply. Yes, I'd like to create the link in a Word doc to go to a specific page in a PDF doc. Then, I plan to convert the Word doc to a PDF, keeping the link.

Keeping the link is not a problem and creating a link to another word doc or pdf doc isn't a problem but getting it to a specific page in the PDF doesn't work. It seems that Word doesn't read PDF bookmarks

It seems www.multilinker.com is not working. Have posted on word.vba.general.

Your better off using Adobe Acrobat to edit links in PDF document
collections. Use Word to make the first draft of the PDF's, then use
Acrobat to finish them off. Has the best tools for dealing with PDF's.

Hope this is useful to you. Let us know.
