I am working on a web page in ColdFusion that allows users to pick the page they want to see in a pdf and then generates a link that opens up the pdf and takes them directly to that page. It works great when Reader (or Acrobat) open up within the browser window. However, some people have Reader (or Acrobat) set up to always open up outside the browser window, and then my link to the specific page (http: . . . pdf#Page=7) doesn't work. Any suggestions for a link to a specific page in a pdf that will work whether or not Reader (or Acrobat) opens up inside or outside the browser window?
